Hotel Sidewalk Clearing

What This Service Involves

Hotel guests arrive and depart at every hour, often wheeling luggage and unfamiliar with local ice, which makes the entrance canopy and check-in walk a constant safety concern. We keep the main arrival zone, luggage path, and side guest entries clear so a late-night check-in never meets a glazed sidewalk. In the maritime Northwest, drizzle under the porte-cochere freezes into a slick sheet that guests in travel shoes never expect. Our overnight-capable crews protect both guest safety and the property's reputation for a smooth arrival.
