Things To Know Before Hiring Commercial Snow Removal Services

With the winter season in full swing, you might have already seen people holding snow blowers on the roads or streets to remove snow. However, there would be many people who wouldn’t be willing to clear the snow. Wet, heavy snow is not only difficult but also dangerous to remove with a shovel. So, it becomes a necessity to hire commercial snow removal services to move snow. Before you choose someone to clear the snow, here are the things you need to know. 

Recommendations - Consider references from friends, family members, associates, and online portals. Most importantly, you should check references on snow removal service providers before you need services, not when six inches of snow heap block your parking lot or driveway. The best way to know whether the company is reliable or not, read their previous customers’ testimonials on the website. You can also contact your local Better Business Bureau office,  ask for a report on the snow removal contractors you’re considering.

Written evaluation - Once you’ve confirmed the references and are pleased with one or more contractor’s experiences and service records, fix an appointment with the company for a written estimate of your property about snow moving costs and services. Make sure you clear all your queries about how the contractor handles property damage, norms for terminating a snow removal contract if required and what kind of tools the company has.

Cost and services - Make sure you carefully review the written estimate and understand the cost and services. Also, consider the charges for clearing sidewalks and stairs, the cost and time of applying sand and salt, and whether the contractor removes the snow when it’s falling or after it stops. Other things to bring into your consideration include snow services such as where will the contractor throw the removed snow, taking off heavy snow from the rooftops, and how will the contractor charges by the type of service performed or by the inch.

Contracts - Before you commit to any snow removal service provider, go through the contract carefully. You can also get it reviewed by a professional lawyer. Make sure you read all disclaimers, waiver sections, and fine print.
