Our Snow Removal Services In Douglas County MN
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Douglas County MN. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our machinery is equipped for high-volume snow removal. We do not pile it haphazardly; we strategically map your property to maximize parking space that preserve parking spaces and maintain line-of-sight for traffic. Utilizing wheel loaders with containment plows and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure high-traffic areas are cleared rapidly.
Our methodology includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We identify curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the first flake falls to protect assets.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Custom service contracts allow you to set snow depth triggers (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for automatic deployment.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We maintain key lanes and fire lanes to ensure open routes for all traffic.
Protecting Your Home and Family
A snowed-in driveway or a dangerously loaded roof is a standard Douglas County MN challenge, but it doesnt have to be a burden. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our large-scale operations to your property. Unlike independent truck services, we are a insured professional service, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; de-icing is where safety is truly determined. Basic rock salt often underperforms in extreme Douglas County MN sub-zero temperatures. ABC SNOW applies calibrated spreaders and advanced de-icing agents tailored to current temperature metrics.
We utilize a combination solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, causing less damage to concrete and landscaping.
- Treated Salt Blends: To increase traction immediately while ice adhesion is broken.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can pre-treat surfaces before the storm hits, making removal cleaner and faster.
Precision Driveway Plowing
We utilize tools optimized for driveways. While we have industrial equipment for big properties, we also deploy compact equipment for residential access to prevent turf damage.
Our technicians are trained to back-drag snow away from garage doors effectively, ensuring you arent left with substantial piles. We also offer staking services to mark driveway boundaries, safeguarding surfaces.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Douglas County MN, snow load is a structural threat. As wet snow increases density, its density increases.
If the weight of the snow exceeds the live load capacity of your roof structure, catastrophic collapse can occur.
- Physics of Snow Load: The weight (W) on a roof is determined by the area (A), snow thickness, and density of the snow ().
- Soft snow is lighter, but dense snow adds massive weight.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We do not use damaging picks or axes. Instead, we use non-abrasive roof rakes and, for flat commercial roofs, snow blowers to remove the bulk of the weight without causing leaks.
This service is vital for preventing ice damsfrozen barriers that trap runoff. Ice dams can force water under shingles.
