A push is defined as one clearing of the premises. Each push is an individual charge. Per push plowing provides site specific storm planning by determining response protocols based on hours of business operation, providing “zero tolerance” services when crucially needed and saving cost during off hours. De-icing is charged on a per application basis. Bucket loaders will be used to stack and move snow if needed due to excessive and consecutive snow events in order to maintain safety and capacity of parking areas. Additional services above and beyond assigned snow and ice response plan can be added or reviewed 24-hours real-time using the 24-hour hotline.
An event is defined as a continuous storm within a 24-hour period. Each event is an individual charge. Per event service requires each site to have one or more pieces of equipment assigned specifically to that property. Larger properties need to limit exposure to liability by maintaining fire lanes and aisles passable at all times. Per event plowing prevents panic situations by staffing the proper equipment and personnel on or near site from storm start to storm end. De-icing is charged on a per application basis. Additional services above and beyond assigned snow and ice response plan can be added or reviewed 24-hours real-time using the 24-hour hotline.
A seasonal contract is a fixed price no matter how much or how little snow falls during the season. Seasonal contracts are based on a rule of averages in order to maintain consistent payments so owners, managers and tenants can project budgets. All plowing and de-icing services follow the protocol of the assigned snow and ice response plan. Additional services above and beyond assigned snow and ice response plan can be added or reviewed 24-hours real-time using the 24-hour hotline.
