Downtown Snow Hauling

What This Service Involves

Downtown corridors in Seattle, Bellingham, and Olympia have no spare lots or medians to stack snow, so pushed piles clog curb lanes, bus stops, and crosswalks. When our lowland snow does stick, the tight urban grid leaves hauling as the only real option. Our crews load and remove snow from streetfronts, loading zones, and pedestrian areas, working within traffic and parking constraints. We coordinate timing to stay out of peak congestion and keep the district functional.
