Snow Melter Service

What This Service Involves

Snow melters are the answer when a Western Washington property has nowhere left to stack snow and no practical route for off-site hauling. The unit feeds piled snow into a heated chamber and discharges the meltwater into the drainage system, removing volume without trucks leaving the site. This is especially useful for dense urban lots, hospitals, and downtown properties where every square foot matters and pile space runs out fast. We manage feed rate and discharge to keep melting steady and drainage clear throughout operation.

Benefits

On-site conversion of snow to water with no hauling; Recovered space on properties with no room to stack; Ideal for dense urban, hospital, and downtown sites; Managed discharge that keeps drainage flowing during melting

Our Process

1) Position the melter near piled snow and a drainage outlet; 2) Feed accumulated snow into the heated melting chamber; 3) Discharge meltwater into the approved drainage system; 4) Monitor feed rate and drainage until piles are gone

What Affects the Cost

Total volume of snow to be melted; Fuel and runtime the melting operation requires; Available drainage capacity for discharge; Labor to feed the melter steadily; Site constraints affecting melter placement

Best Time of Year
