Services we provide in Hood River
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.
Residential
Driveway plowing and sidewalk clearing for Hood River homeowners, with a trigger depth you set once. The same crew learns your property's layout over the season, so plowing follows the same pattern every storm: no re-explaining where the edges are or where to pile snow.
Commercial
Commercial snow removal in Hood River covers the full property (lot, sidewalks, and entrances), cleared on a schedule built around when the property actually needs to be open.
Local rules & timing
Hood River Municipal Code Chapter 13.20 requires property owners to maintain sidewalks and curbs abutting their property, including snow/ice clearing, in a safe condition; the city has also imposed no-parking rules on primary Downtown and Heights District streets during snow events.
Rules can change, so verify current requirements with your municipality.
Local conditions
We route around a handful of local factors specific to Hood River.
Hood River sits at the confluence of the Hood and Columbia Rivers in the Columbia River Gorge, a wind corridor that channels distinct weather between the wetter western Gorge and drier eastern Gorge. Its moderate elevation and gorge position keep valley snowfall modest (~17in/yr) even though Mount Hood, just 30 miles south, is one of the snowiest peaks in the country.
We regularly service routes near Interstate 84, Oregon Route 35.
