Residential

For Bristol driveways, plowing is scheduled around your trigger depth rather than a route that visits every property at the same time regardless of conditions. Sidewalk clearing can be bundled in, so the whole property is handled on one visit.

Commercial

Parking lot plowing, sidewalk clearing, and ice control for Bristol 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 Bristol specifically inform how service is scheduled.

Bristol sits on a peninsula between Narragansett and Mount Hope Bays, and that near-total water exposure keeps it among the milder spots in this dataset for snowfall, several inches less per year than inland Kent County towns just 15 miles away. The East Bay Bike Path and Colt State Park waterfront roads are especially exposed to wind-driven snow squalls even when accumulation is modest.

We regularly service routes near Route 114 (Hope Street/Wood Street), Route 136, Metacom Avenue, Ferry Road, Chestnut Street.
