Government Building Snow Work in Roy, WA
At a government building, the priority is public access. That means walks, ramps, entry doors, accessible parking and the lot itself. We plow with trucks, move snow from tight areas with a compact track loader, and send crew members for shoveling and hand work on sidewalks.
Roy sees only 1.8 days a year with 1 in or more of snow. Yet it has 42 freezing nights from October to April, and about 3.45 light-snow days a year that need deicing. Thin snow and frost can leave ice on steps and crosswalks even when there is nothing to plow. Bigger storms do happen. The biggest single day since 2005 was 8.3 in, and there have been 11 winter storm and heavy snow reports since 2005. Recent logged events include Dec 1, 2022 and Feb 22, 2018.
