Services we provide in Philadelphia
Local conditions
A few things about Philadelphia specifically inform how service is scheduled.
Philadelphia sits in the state's southeastern corner, its mildest and least snowy region, with snowfall totals meaningfully lower than the rest of Pennsylvania thanks to its proximity to the Delaware River, Delaware Bay, and the Atlantic coast. Nor'easters are the primary source of the city's biggest snow events, and the difference between a plowable snowstorm and a rain event can hinge on just a degree or two of temperature. Philadelphia's dense rowhouse neighborhoods and narrow streets, especially in South Philadelphia and parts of North Philadelphia, make sidewalk and curb clearing logistically important given how much on-street parking the city relies on.
We regularly service routes near I-95, I-76, I-676, US-1, US-30.
Response time
Response within 1 hour during a storm. Response times in Philadelphia are the same for a 2 a.m. storm as a 2 p.m. one; dispatch doesn't wait for daylight.

Local rules & timing
Philadelphia Code § 10-720 requires property owners, agents, and tenants to clear a path at least 36 inches wide on abutting sidewalks within 6 hours after snow has stopped falling; violators face fines of $50–$300.
Rules can change, so verify current requirements with your municipality.
Residential
Philadelphia 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
Parking lot plowing, sidewalk clearing, and ice control for Philadelphia 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.
