Who we are
Our SIMA-trained leads and insured operators use compact equipment and rubber edges to protect decorative city surfaces while keeping friction high.
Your custom playbook lists triggers, pile spots, melt recipes, and communication trees that our crews memorize and rehearse.
Reports with timestamps and photos arrive automatically after each service to satisfy risk, facilities, and tenant needs.
Services tailored to city properties
Your entrances, ADA paths, and drive lanes stay clear with timed passes that respect peak foot and vehicle traffic.
- Lot and lane plowing: Curbs, ramps, alleys, garage entrances, and loading docks with edge detailing and pile control.
- Pretreat and de-ice: Brine pretreats and eco melt tuned to temps and humidity to prevent bond and refreeze.
- Sidewalk precision: Hand crews and compact units for storefronts, crosswalks, bus stops, and shaded walks.
- Snow relocation: Planned piles that preserve visibility and parking; optional hauling when capacity is tight.

Property Manager, Mixed-UseFAQ
Do you pretreat before freezing rain? Yes, brine pretreatments go down when dew points and temps show refreeze risk.
Can you haul snow off-site? We plan stack zones and haul when piles threaten visibility or parking.
How fast is dispatch? Crews are staged inside Downers Grove, IL; alerts trigger deployment within minutes.
Deep-dive on keeping Downers Grove, IL city sites open
We develop block-by-block playbooks that define pretreat timing, plow order, sidewalk rotations, and valet-lane sweeps so no entrance waits.
Each operator carries a digital route card with surface types, melt preferences, and notes from preseason walks.
Radar, pavement sensors, and on-the-ground observations combine so we pivot from plowing to melting at the right moment.
Communication stays tight: dispatch texts when crews roll, arrive, clear priority zones, and finish, attaching photos you can forward to leadership.
HOAs and multifamily complexes are split into loops, ensuring residents always have a clear exit while we respect quiet hours.
Parking and sight lines remain strong because we pre-plan pile zones away from hydrants, cameras, and signage; if capacity shrinks, we schedule off-peak hauling.
Sustainability is baked in: brine pretreats lower total salt use while keeping surfaces safe; logs capture product type, rate, and timing.
Post-storm, we debrief with your team, adjust triggers, update maps, and refine contact trees so every event improves.
Support trucks carry spare edges, belts, and hydraulic fluid so mechanical hiccups never stall a route.
Documentation closes every loop: timestamps, route logs, treatment volumes, and photo evidence are packaged for risk, facilities, and legal stakeholders.
City-ready checklist we run every storm
We confirm on-site contacts, gate codes, and access notes to remove friction before crews move.
Eco melt inventory is verified and balanced to match temps, humidity, and surface type.
Active storm: Plows and sidewalk crews run timed passes with curb-to-curb coverage, keeping ADA routes and main doors open; supervisors adjust sequences if traffic reroutes.
Touch-ups: As temps fall or foot traffic polishes surfaces, we run micro-treatments on high-polish zones like crosswalks, bus stops, and valet lanes.
Post-storm: Final sweep clears edges, hydrants, and signage sight lines; piles are reshaped, and hazard cones are collected.
Review: We debrief with your team after major events, refining triggers, pile plans, and communications to shave minutes off the next response.
