As winter approaches, homeowners and business owners in northern parts of the country begin putting plans in place for snow removal. For anyone with a large residential driveway or commercial parking lot, hiring professionals is the best way to ensure the job gets done right. If you’re thinking about enlisting the help of experts to clear your property after winter storms this year, here are a few key qualities to look for.

4 Characteristics of the Best Snow Removal Companies

1. Insurance Coverage

Any contractor you hire should be licensed and insured. This way, you can have peace of mind in knowing the company is legally allowed to operate in your area, and should an accident occur on the job, you won’t be held liable for damages. 

2. Reliability

Ask them how long you can anticipate waiting before their arrival on a normal basis so you can choose the company with the quickest response time. 

3. Honest Estimates

Pricing may vary based on the amount of snowfall, but the company you’re considering should still have a clear pricing framework. Pricing will also depend on the size of your lot or driveway. To make sure you’re staying within your budget, ask for an estimate before the season starts.   

4. Referrals or Reviews

Sometimes, asking around your community is the best way to find a trusted snow removal team. If you can’t find any recommendations, however, you can still search for companies online and ask them to provide referrals from satisfied customers.
