Local conditions
Local conditions in Fort Collins shape how we route crews and time dispatch.
Fort Collins can see measurable snow from early September through late May, one of the longer windows on the northern Front Range, though frequent downslope winds keep winters milder on average than the elevation alone would suggest.
We regularly service routes near Interstate 25, US-287 (College Avenue), Colorado Highway 1, Colorado Highway 14, Colorado Highway 392.
Residential
Fort Collins 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
Fort Collins commercial lots are serviced on a trigger depth tied to your operating hours, not a fixed daily route, so the property is clear before you open rather than sometime during the day.
Local rules & timing
Fort Collins Municipal Code Chapter 24 (Streets and Sidewalks) requires the public sidewalk adjacent to a property, including across the driveway, to be cleared of snow/ice within 24 hours of accumulation, with no minimum-depth exemption.
Rules can change, so verify current requirements with your municipality.
FAQs
What trigger depth do you plow at?
Most customers set a 2-inch trigger, meaning we plow once 2 inches has accumulated and again as needed through the storm. You can set a different trigger when you sign up.
Do you plow driveways in Fort Collins?
Yes, residential driveway plowing is available throughout Fort Collins and the rest of Larimer County. Set a trigger depth once and we dispatch on every qualifying storm.
Do I need to sign a contract?
No: per-push service is available without a season-long commitment, though a seasonal contract is available if you'd rather lock in a flat rate.
Who do I contact if I have a service issue in Fort Collins?
Dispatch can be reached directly for a status check or service issue during an active storm: see the phone number at the top of this page.
Will plowing damage my driveway or landscaping?
Every property is scouted before the season to mark edges, drainage, and hardscaping, and blades are set to avoid gouging asphalt or concrete.
Are you licensed and insured?
Ask us for current proof of licensing and insurance when you request a quote; we're glad to provide it before you sign anything.
