Services we provide in Grand Junction
Local rules & timing
Grand Junction Municipal Code Sec. 12.16.090 requires sidewalks adjacent to the street to be cleared of snow, ice, and debris within 24 hours after each snowfall.
Rules can change, so verify current requirements with your municipality.
Local conditions
Grand Junction's geography and weather patterns factor directly into route planning.
Grand Junction sits on the Colorado River valley floor of the Western Slope at about 4,600 feet, well below the surrounding Grand Mesa and Book Cliffs, so it receives far less snow (17.7 in/yr) than the mountain resort towns the rest of Colorado is known for. Its dominant winter hazard is valley-floor temperature-inversion fog and black ice rather than accumulation, a genuinely different service profile than Aspen or Durango a few hours away.
We regularly service routes near Interstate 70, U.S. Highway 6, U.S. Highway 50, Colorado Highway 141, Colorado Highway 340.
Response time
Response within 1 hour during a storm. Grand Junction routes are re-checked throughout a storm, so accumulation that continues past the first pass gets a follow-up visit, not a wait until the next scheduled day.
Residential
Residential service in Grand Junction covers the driveway and connecting walkways, with a trigger depth you set once and equipment matched to your property: a straight-blade truck for a standard driveway, or smaller equipment for tight access.
Commercial
For Grand Junction commercial properties, zoned dispatch means the areas that matter most (entrances, fire lanes, ADA routes) clear first, with the rest of the lot following on the same visit.

FAQs
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.
Who do I contact if I have a service issue in Grand Junction?
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.
Is Grand Junction prone to ice dams or roof snow load issues?
Grand Junction sits on the Colorado River valley floor of the Western Slope at about 4,600 feet, well below the surrounding Grand Mesa and Book Cliffs, so it receives far less snow (17.7 in/yr) than the mountain resort towns the rest of Colorado is known for. Its dominant winter hazard is valley-floor temperature-inversion fog and black ice rather than accumulation, a genuinely different service profile than Aspen or Durango a few hours away. Ask about roof snow removal or ice dam service if that's a recurring issue at your property.
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.
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 offer commercial and HOA snow removal in Grand Junction?
Yes: parking lots, sidewalks, and ice control for commercial, HOA, and municipal properties in Grand Junction, alongside residential service.
