Residential Parking Lot Snow Removal

What This Service Involves

Small lots serving townhomes and multi-unit homes almost never land on a city plow route, which strands residents when wet Cascade snow piles up overnight. Our crews plow these compact lots and stall areas before the morning commute, then treat the pavement so melting slush does not refreeze into black ice by evening. We push snow to designated corners that will not swallow spaces or block the drains that Western Washington rain relies on. Because lowland snow here tends to melt and refreeze for days, we return as conditions dictate rather than after one pass.

Benefits

Residents keep access to their vehicles during rare but disruptive lowland storms; snow is stacked where it will not eat parking spaces; refreeze is headed off with targeted deicer between events; one local contact handles the whole lot instead of scattered tenants

Our Process

1) Walk the lot to map stall layout, drainage, and where cars stay parked; 2) Plow drive aisles and open stalls down to bare pavement before commuters wake; 3) Apply deicer to shaded corners that refreeze first; 4) Track the forecast and revisit through the freeze-thaw window

What Affects the Cost

Total paved square footage and stall count; how many vehicles remain parked during clearing; distance snow must travel to stacking corners; number of return visits across a multi-day cold snap; deicer type chosen to protect pets and landscaping

Best Time of Year

Western Washington lowland snow clusters between late November and February, with elevated risk during La Nina winters.
