Selecting the Right Snow Removal Contractor for Your Association Properties



As the chill of fall starts to approach in Michigan, association board members have an essential task ahead of them: selecting the right snow removal company for the colder months to come. It's crucial to ensure the safety of residents and avoid potential hazards from snow and ice.


Why is Choosing the Right Contractor Vital? Michigan's winter can surprise you with a flurry of snow at the most unexpected times. As a result, you need a snow removal company that is not only reliable but can be trusted to be on top of things as soon as the snow starts to fall. Associations especially need to ensure all driveways, parking lots, and walkways are clear of snow, ensuring residents can move about safely.


Why Securing a Contractor Early is Critical

  1. Beating the Rush: Just like you, many are looking to secure the best services in town. Waiting too long can mean settling for less than ideal services or having little options with high service fees.

  2. Tailored Snow and Ice Management Planning: Getting on board early allows more time for the contractor to understand your property's unique requirements. This results in a more comprehensive and tailored snow and ice management strategy.

  3. Pre-season Checks: An early commitment provides ample time for the contractor to do site checks, understanding the layout, and planning snow removal routes efficiently.

  4. Budget Planning: Knowing your snow removal plan in advance allows for better budgeting and financial planning for the association.


Features of an Ideal Snow Removal Company:

  1. 24/7 Weather Monitoring: Michigan winters are unpredictable. The company you choose should have around the clock monitoring/services to prepare in advance for any incoming storms.

  2. Snow and Ice Management Planning: Each property will have unique requirements. Whether it's specific hours of operation, designated snow staging areas, or prioritizing specific areas, the contractor should offer a comprehensive snow and ice management plan.

  3. State-of-the-Art Equipment: It's not just about having equipment, but also ensuring it's in good working condition. A breakdown during a snowstorm can result in delays, posing risks for residents.

  4. Use of Bobcats: These are essential for clearing tight spots and ensuring thorough snow removal.

  5. Dedicated Crew: The crew should be trained, responsive, and equipped to handle all scenarios, including using shovels for tighter spaces.
