Response time
Response within 1 hour during a storm. Routes are planned from the forecast so crews are already moving once your trigger depth is reached, rather than waiting for a call.
Local rules & timing
Truckee Municipal Code Chapter 10.17 (Snow Removal) makes adjacent property owners responsible for maintaining the sidewalk along their frontage, whether on private property or public right-of-way.
Rules can change, so verify current requirements with your municipality.
Residential
Truckee homeowners set a trigger depth once at sign-up, and every storm that reaches it gets serviced the same way for the rest of the season. Per-push or seasonal billing is available depending on how you'd rather budget.
Commercial
Parking lot plowing, sidewalk clearing, and ice control for Truckee properties that can't afford downtime. Lots are zoned so drive lanes and entrances clear first, then the rest of the lot, on a trigger depth tied to your operating hours.
