Snow Plowing/Removal
  • Equipment
    Parking Place, Inc. is fully equipped to plow and remove snow from any size lot. Equipment includes front end loaders, large push blades, dump trucks, 4x4 trucks and steer skid loaders (Bobcats).
  • Site Crew
    Each location has a designated crew and supervisor, who work only at that site, so you get the same, experienced team at your lot every time.
  • Communication
    All supervisors are equipped with radios, pagers and cellular phones for fast communication to increase efficiency, reduce the chance of errors and ensure proper service.
  • Snow Removal/Relocation
    After heavy continuous snowfalls of several days, Parking Place, Inc. has the capability to reposition snow piles on site with end loaders and dump trucks or haul snow offsite.
  • Reports/Record Keeping
    The company provides excellent record keeping and reporting. Staff faxes or e-mails a snow control sheet, which is a description of each day's/night's work, within 24 hours. Descriptions include snowfall amount for the site (from the National Weather Service), hours worked and material used. These reports help answer questions and resolve problems.
  • Weather Tracking
    The company subscribes to three weather-reporting services that enable it to track storm movement continuously and compile accurate reports for each location.
  • Budgeting
    The staff can assist property management in budgeting for snow removal by estimating costs based on snowfall and work records for comparable properties.



Ice Control/Parking Lot
  • Designated crews salt the lot to prevent icing.
  • The amount of salt spread is based on weather conditions and management's approval.
  • Crews always salt after plowing.
  • Sodium chloride is used only on lots, not on sidewalks.



Sidewalk Services
  • Snow Removal
    Designated site crews use snow blowers, rotary brooms and shovels to clear all sidewalks, fire exits and dumpster areas. They work on a nonstop basis during continuous and/or heavy snowfalls to ensure safety at tenants' doors.
  • Ice Control
    Parking Place, Inc. uses only the best ice-control material you can buy for sidewalks: calcium chloride. It melts ice and snow at a lower air temperature than any other product and reduces damage to landscaping.
