How to Choose a Snow Plow Contractor for Your Commercial Property

A snow plow contractor is one of the few vendors a property manager depends on at 3 a.m. When a storm hits South Plainfield, you need to know your lot will be clear before tenants, customers and employees arrive. Here's what to look at before you hire.

Local matters more than you think

During a storm, roads are slow and crews are stretched. A contractor based nearby can reach your property faster and come back for another pass when the snow keeps falling. Ask where the company is based and how far its crews travel to reach you.

Look for 24-hour storm response

Snow doesn't stop at 5 p.m. Make sure your contractor works through the storm, not just after it, and that you have a number to call that someone actually answers.

Make sure it's more than plowing

A clear lot is only part of the job. Icy entrances and sidewalks are where people slip. Ask whether the contractor handles de-icing, ice control and sidewalk clearing, and whether they can haul snow off site when there's nowhere left to pile it.

Check insurance before you sign

Ask for proof of insurance before the season starts. A dependable contractor will have it ready.

Consider one contractor year-round

If you already use a landscaping company for property maintenance, ask whether they also handle snow. One contractor who knows your property in every season means one call and one relationship.
