Chicago snow removal is a big job. In a place like Chicagoland, where the snow tends to stick around all winter, it is extra important to deal with snow as it arrives. So what does Chicago snow removal cost?
According to promatcher.com, the average price for Chicago area commercial snow plowing and ice control is $159.17 per hour. The ranges are reported to be from $110-208 per hour. That’s quite a range, so it is important to know what you are getting when you hire a company to plow snow.
Here are some tips to help you find the best Chicago snow removal service:
1. Do they only plow the snow into piles? This is fine is some locations during a mild winter. For many parking lots though, it is important to actually remove snow from the area for the safety of drivers and pedestrians.
2. Timing is everything. Will they get the job done in time for employees and customers arriving at your business? Brancato emails weather alerts before, during and after a storm to keep you updated.
3. Minding Details. How effectively does the company you are hiring deal with ice? Does salting cost extra? Do they offer meticulous services? Be sure you know when you sign your contract for the coming winter season.
4. Does the company have the right size equipment and know-how for the job? Different size lots require different equipment. Will your lot need a skid-steer or end-loader? It is important that the crew manager has the experience to know what needs to be done for your specific lot.
5. What will the invoice look like? You want it to be detailed, showing exactly what work you were charged for so you know you are getting the best value for your money. Make sure you fully understand all the details and have answers to your questions about your Chicago snow removal company.
