What HOA Lot Snow Removal Involves in Roy, WA
An HOA lot has resident parking, drive lanes, mailbox areas and walkways. Plowing clears the lanes and stalls. Hand crews handle sidewalks, steps and spots a truck cannot reach. Ice treatment covers the places where residents walk and park.
Roy's pattern shapes the work. There are 42 freezing nights from October to April, so ice is a bigger routine issue than deep snow. About 3.45 days a year bring light snow that needs deicing. Winter Storm Warnings are rare, at 0.57 a year, but big events do happen. Feb 11-15, 2021 dropped 15.4 in in total, with 7.1 in on the biggest day. Jan 15-19, 2012 brought 12.9 in, with 8.3 in on its biggest day.
Because most seasons are light, many HOAs call for service only when needed. Here is what is available and what it costs:
