Roy Industrial Facility Sidewalk Clearing
Worker-safety sidewalk clearing for Western Washington industrial facilities, keeping crew walkways between buildings and lots clear across every shift.
Industrial Facility Sidewalk Clearing in Roy covers the walkways workers and drivers use every day: entrances, break-area paths, loading office doors and the routes between parking and the building. Washington Snow Removal clears them by hand and with equipment, then treats them against ice. We are licensed, bonded and insured.
Roy gets about 6.2 in of snow per season, so we are called out for events, not for steady winter service. Our yard is in Bothell, 104 minutes away. Call 206-809-9669 to talk through your site and how a dispatch would work.

Sidewalk Clearing at Roy Industrial Sites: What to Expect
Roy has 2 industrial sites mapped within it. Most have long walkways from lots to doors, and those paths often sit in shade near buildings and fences. Snow packs down under foot traffic and forklifts, then turns to ice.
Snow here is infrequent. Roy sees about 1.8 days a year with 1 in or more of snow and only 1.1 days a year that stay below freezing. But there are 42 freezing nights between October and April. That means the bigger risk is often a thin glaze on a cold morning, not deep snow. Logged events include Dec 1, 2022 (Winter Weather) and heavy snow on Feb 8, 2019, Jan 18, 2012 and Dec 21, 2008.
A typical visit includes:
- Shoveling and scraping entrances, walkways and dock-office paths
- Compact track loader work where a path is wide enough for equipment
- Bagged ice melt applied to treated areas
Pricing is simple. Crew members are $110 per person-hour. A Kubota SCL1000 compact track loader with operator is $175 per hour. Ice melt is $45 per 50 lb bag. The trip charge for Roy (zone D) is $525 per dispatch, and each dispatch has a 2-hour minimum.
