Parking lot plowing, sidewalk clearing, and ice control for Reno 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.

Local conditions

A few things about Reno specifically inform how service is scheduled.

Reno sits at about 4,500 ft just east of the Sierra Nevada crest, in the rain shadow that keeps valley-floor snowfall modest compared to the mountains a few miles west. Sierra storms that dump feet of snow at Donner Summit or Mt. Rose often leave Reno itself with only a few inches, though cold air pooling in the Truckee Meadows can still produce icy mornings even after light snow.

We regularly service routes near I-80, US-395, I-580, Virginia Street, McCarran Boulevard.
