Snow Removal Service Category Archives

The 2022-23 winter season in Utah saw historic snowfall, which caught many home and business owners off guard. However, this winter, many companies that provide residential and commercial snow removal are far more prepared to handle snowfall. While they’re prepared to handle the snowfall, you might not understand why scheduling commercial snow removal is so beneficial for your business.

At Green Castle Lawn Care, our team understands the importance of prompt and thorough snow removal. If you are a commercial property owner and you’ve been considering scheduling snow removal services but still find yourself on the fence, keep reading to learn about how it can greatly benefit you.  

Why is Snow Removal Important? 

As a business owner, ensuring your property is properly cared for following a snowstorm is essential. Allowing heavy snowfall to accumulate can lead to a variety of hazards on your property, including accidents and structural damage. By removing snow once a storm has ended, you prevent this from occurring.

Proper removal is especially important if you want to reduce liability. If you don’t take proper care of the snow until after someone gets hurt, you may be liable to pay for any damages they face. This can become incredibly costly, so it is important that you address snow as soon as possible. Ultimately, it is an essential responsibility of business owners to ensure their parking lots and sidewalks are clear in order for customers and employees to safely navigate to and from the business. 

It is also a great way of telling your customers and employees that you care for their well-being. If you fail to address snow build-up in your parking lot, but your competitor quickly and efficiently addresses the problem, customers may be more inclined to visit your competitor. Don’t give your competition a leg up this winter by missing out on professional removal.

The Benefits of Scheduling Commercial Snow Removal

1. Customer and Employee Safety

When you choose to schedule commercial snow removal, you won’t need to worry about your employees having to remove the snow from your property themselves. By relying on someone else for the removal of the snow, you protect employees from potential injuries while removing the snow from sidewalks and parking lots. This also means your employees can enter and leave your property without the risk of falling. This removal is also beneficial to the safety of customers coming and going from your property. If you want to keep everyone safe this winter, scheduling this removal is essential.

2. Prevent Property Damage

Allowing snow to collect on your sidewalks and parking lots can be incredibly damaging to these surfaces. As the snow melts and water begins to pool, it can lead to leaks and breakdown of materials. By scheduling commercial removal, you prevent water from pooling in especially sensitive areas across your property. Not only will the prevent damage, but it will also save you from costly and unexpected repairs. If you want to avoid expensive maintenance appointments, scheduling snow removal is a must. 

3. Professional Tools

While you may keep a snow shovel and ice melt on your property, these tools are nothing in comparison to professional tools. If you schedule commercial removal, these services come with larger snow plows to make quick work of snow build-up on your parking lot or sidewalk. Additionally, they can quickly distribute salt across the surface of your parking lot and sidewalks, ensuring ice doesn’t form and cause more problems. Don’t waste hours shoveling by hand when a team of professionals can make quick work of the snowy mess. 

4. Avoid Potential Fines

If you own your commercial property, promptly removing snow from public sidewalks and parking lots is an essential part of your responsibilities. The Utah Department of Transportation takes care of public roads and highways. However, it is your responsibility to ensure the snow is removed from your property to ensure it is safe for travel. If you don’t remove your snow within 24 hours of the end of a snowstorm, you may put yourself at risk of hefty fines. Avoid these potential fines by scheduling removal with the professionals.

5. Increased Customer Traffic

While you might not realize it, leaving your property covered in snow can be incredibly off-putting to customers. While they remove snow from their property to keep themselves safe, it is your responsibility to remove snow from their property to keep them safe. If you don’t take the time to do this task for them, they might not want to risk a slip and fall. If you want to keep your doors open during a major snowstorm, scheduling removal is a great way to do that.
