snow removal Archives - Sauers Snow & Ice Management

The summer sunshine is sure to make you forget the frigid winter months, but snow and ice are always just around the corner. So how can you get a head start on next year’s winter plan? Create a Custom Snow Response Plan!

Step One – Determine your needs for snow plowing and snow removal.

What are your hours of operations?
What level of response or service do you need?
What do you have budgeted for winter management?

Step Two – Don’t wait until the Fall.

By talking to a certified snow contractor during the summer you receive several benefits.

Time to process, evaluate, and develop a plan to meet your needs and budget.
Preparation always serves you better than reaction.
Lower costs can be negotiated earlier in the sales cycle.

Step Three – Request a Free Property Evaluation

Your Sauers rep will:

Take time to listen to you explain your snow removal needs.
Evaluate your property needs and create a plan for winter.
Help you make educated choices regarding level of service and pricing structures.

Putting off creating a snow response plan until fall will mean higher costs for last-minute snow management plans and will bring uncertainty for you and your employees. By creating a custom snow response plan early (spring or summer) you gain peace of mind, at the best price, knowing that you won’t leave your employees, residents, patrons, or patients stranded when the first storm hits.

At Sauers Snow and Ice Management we provide two ice management options: Anti-icing and Deicing. Do you know the difference between the two?

Deicing is the application of deicing products to surfaces to melt existing snow and ice after an event.

Anti-icing is the application of products to surfaces like parking lots before a storm. Anti-icing helps prevent snow and ice from bonding to the pavement. You’ll often find department of transportation crews spraying brine solution along major highways. This is the same process; however, rather than for major roadways, it’s performed on your property.

Anti-icing is a lot like spraying a non-stick cooking spray on a frying pan. The spray prevents food from sticking to the bottom of your pan, creating an easier-to-clean pan. When we use anti-icing treatments on your parking lot, we are really preventing snow and ice from sticking to the pavement. This makes it a lot easier to clean up after a winter storm. Do you enjoy scraping burned-on food at the bottom of your pan? How about scraping ice off your sidewalks? It’s the same concept. Use anti-icing treatments to prevent hard work after a winter storm.

There are lots of reasons to choose between Anti-icing and Deicing. So while you’re looking at your winter property management plans, we hope this helps you.
