Keeping Up With Snow Fall: What to Do & When
It is easy to handle a light dusting of snow but it is easy to become overwhelmed. It is common for snow falls to occur overnight, meaning you might go to bed with clear pathways only to wake up to buried vehicles, covered stairs and impassable walkways. A sunny day might melt off some of this snow but it will refreeze overnight, leaving large patches of ice behind. If this is the case around your home or commercial space it will take more than a handful of rock salt to fix these issues.
Whether you already have snow piled up on your property or are looking to book routine snow removal services, our Gorillas are here to help. Snow blowers and snow plows can be used during the day but over the evening and night when things should be quiet, shovels are the tools of choice.
