Residential
For Colorado Springs driveways, plowing is scheduled around your trigger depth rather than a route that visits every property at the same time regardless of conditions. Sidewalk clearing can be bundled in, so the whole property is handled on one visit.
Commercial
Parking lot plowing, sidewalk clearing, and ice control for Colorado Springs 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.
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 conditions
We route around a handful of local factors specific to Colorado Springs.
Colorado Springs sits at the base of 14,115-foot Pikes Peak, and 8 of its 10 heaviest 24-hour snowfalls on record have come in the March–May window, reflecting spring upslope storm dynamics. Strong sun at this elevation and latitude means snow rarely stays on the ground long.
We regularly service routes near Interstate 25, Cascade Avenue, Washington Avenue, Pikes Peak Avenue.

How quickly will a crew arrive after it starts snowing?
CDOT enforces a two-tier winter driving law on state highways: the Traction Law (Code 15) requires winter/all-weather-rated tires or chains on affected roads, while the more restrictive Passenger Vehicle Chain Law (Code 16) requires chains or an approved alternative traction device on two or more drive tires and serves as the last step before CDOT closes a highway; fines are $50 (Traction Law) and $100 (Chain Law) plus surcharges. Routes are planned from the forecast so crews are already moving once your trigger depth is reached.
