Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Marion County IA
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Marion County IA. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our fleet is optimized for large-scale efficiency. We do not pile it haphazardly; we strategically map your property to determine the most efficient stacking locations that protect vehicle areas and maintain line-of-sight for traffic. Utilizing heavy loaders and skid steers for tight corners, 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 prevent infrastructure damage.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans allow you to choose snow limits (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for immediate action.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We maintain key lanes and critical access routes to ensure open routes for all traffic.
Protecting Your Home and Family
Waking up to an inaccessible driveway or a dangerously loaded roof is a frequent local issue, 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 fully licensed and insured entity, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only one step; de-icing is where safety is truly determined. Standard rock salt often underperforms in severe cold. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments 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 the chemical reaction melts the ice bond.
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 standard driveways to prevent turf damage.
Our operators are experienced in clearing without damage, ensuring you arent left with substantial piles. We also offer staking services to mark driveway boundaries, protecting your landscaping and hardscaping.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Marion County IA, snow load is a structural threat. As snow accumulates, compresses, and absorbs rain or ambient humidity, 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 snow load is determined by the area (A), snow thickness, and snow mass per volume.
- Soft snow is lighter, but compacted, wet Marion County IA snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides roof snow management. We use non-destructive methods. Instead, we use non-abrasive roof rakes and, for flat commercial roofs, snow blowers to remove the bulk of the weight without damaging shingles or membranes.
This service is vital for preventing ice damsridges of ice that form at the edge of a roof that prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can force water under shingles.
