Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Douglas County SD
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Douglas County SD
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Douglas County SD. 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 assess your property to maximize parking space that preserve parking spaces and maintain line-of-sight for traffic. Utilizing heavy loaders and small maneuverable loaders, we ensure high-traffic areas are cleared rapidly.
Our commercial process includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We locate curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the first flake falls to protect assets.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans 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 emergency vehicles and customers have unimpeded access.
Protecting Your Home and Family
Waking up to an inaccessible driveway or a roof with excessive accumulation is a frequent local issue, but it doesnt have to be a burden. ABC SNOW brings the same level of professionalism used in our commercial contracts to your home. Unlike erratic “truck and plow” operators, we are a insured professional service, providing reliability.
Snow removal is only one step; ice management is where safety is truly determined. Standard rock salt often loses efficacy in severe cold. ABC SNOW applies calibrated spreaders and advanced de-icing agents tailored to current temperature metrics.
We utilize a combination chemical and brine solutions:
- Magnesium Chloride: Functions where salt fails, 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, preventing the snow from bonding.
Precision Driveway Plowing
We use equipment appropriate for residential spacing. While we have heavy loaders for long lanes, we also deploy compact equipment for standard driveways to prevent turf damage.
Our operators are experienced in clearing without damage, ensuring you have clear access. We also offer driveway mapping, safeguarding surfaces.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Douglas County SD, snow load is a structural threat. As wet snow increases density, its stress on structures rises.
If the structural limits are surpassed, catastrophic collapse can occur.
- Physics of Snow Load: The snow load is determined by the area (A), depth of the snow (D), and density of the snow ().
- Soft snow is lighter, but compacted, wet Douglas County SD snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- A roof with 2 feet of wet snow could be supporting tens of thousands of pounds of extra stress.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We do not use damaging picks or axes. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for flat commercial roofs, industrial snow removal equipment to remove the bulk of the weight without damaging shingles or membranes.
This service is essential for roof safetyfrozen barriers that trap runoff. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
