Depending on the length of walks you have I find it easier my self to just shovel it. I have guys that work for me and they prefere to use the blower if they have the option. I think its more of a PITA pulling it in and out the truck.


Also make sure you have price increases for your side walk pricing. This is very important if you get a large amount of snow whether using a blower or shovel. You should have a step program just like you do for plowing.

ATM machine, 24/7 pedestrians and walk in traffic....high risk!
Make sure to be not cheap! High liability risk.
We include walks and plowing in our maintenace price and salt extra or inclusive as well depending on client.
