When snowstorms hit the South of Boston area, your business doesn’t have to stop – and in many cases, it can’t. Whether you manage a medical facility, condo complex, retail center, or any other 24/7 commercial property, it’s essential to maintain safe, accessible grounds throughout the winter. That’s where Mass Lawn Pros comes in. Our comprehensive snow and ice management services ensure your business stays operational, allowing you to focus on running it without worrying about hazardous conditions outside.
The Importance of Commercial Snow Plowing for Businesses
Timely and effective snow removal is essential for keeping commercial properties safe and accessible. Snowy or icy parking lots and walkways pose a significant hazard to both customers and employees. Without regular snow plowing and de-icing, you risk slip-and-fall accidents, which can lead to injuries, lawsuits, and lost business. For medical facilities, essential services, or any business with continuous operations, this risk is even greater.
Beyond safety, it’s also the law in Massachusetts. Under a 2010 ruling from the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, commercial property owners are legally responsible for removing snow and ice to ensure safe access for the public. This ruling eliminated the previous distinction between “natural” and “unnatural” snow accumulations. Now, property owners must remove or treat any snow or ice that poses a hazard, regardless of how it formed. Failure to comply with these regulations can result in serious legal consequences, including fines, lawsuits, and liability for accidents. Therefore, timely snow removal isn’t just about convenience—it’s about protecting your business from costly penalties.
We Watch the Weather as Closely as a Meteorologist
At Mass Lawn Pros, we take a proactive approach to snow removal. Our team monitors weather forecasts closely, preparing for upcoming snowstorms before they even hit. When the snow starts falling, we deploy a fleet of state-of-the-art plows, blowers, and salters to keep your property clear and safe.
The process typically begins with snow plowing, where our team removes snow from parking lots, walkways, and entrances to ensure vehicles and pedestrians can move freely. For icy conditions, we apply sand and salt to help melt ice and provide traction, preventing dangerous slips and skids. If snow accumulation becomes excessive, we offer snow relocation services, moving snow to designated areas to free up valuable space on your property.
Dependable and Reliable Professional Commercial Snow Plowing Service
Hiring Mass Lawn Pros as your professional snow plowing service offers numerous advantages for your business. First, it ensures quick response times during winter storms. With our team on call, you can count on snow removal as soon as the flakes start falling, minimizing downtime and keeping your business open.
We also have access to specialized equipment designed to handle even the toughest snow conditions, which is far more efficient than relying on a small in-house team or doing it yourself. Additionally, professional services come with liability protection. When you entrust snow removal to a reputable company, you reduce the risk of accidents and lawsuits, knowing that your property is being maintained by experts.
Another major benefit is the ongoing maintenance throughout the winter season. Snowstorms don’t happen just once, and post-storm management is critical. At Mass Lawn Pros, we return to your property to clear snow piles, treat refreezing areas, and inspect for damage after each storm, ensuring long-term safety and preventing issues like pavement cracks or damage to landscaping.
Common Challenges in Commercial Snow Plowing
Snow plowing comes with its fair share of challenges, particularly for commercial properties. Heavy traffic areas, such as parking lots and delivery zones, require careful planning and execution to ensure safe passage. Our team coordinates snow removal during off-peak hours to minimize disruptions and ensure delivery trucks and other essential services can access your property without delays.
Ice buildup can also be difficult to manage, especially in high-traffic areas where cars and trucks constantly compact the snow posing a serious risk to pedestrians and vehicles. Our Mass Lawn Pros ice management services include the application of eco-friendly deicing agents and sand to minimize slippery conditions and ensure the safety of everyone on your property. Our team stays updated on the latest ice melting products and techniques to provide you with the most effective solutions.
Seasonal Contracts vs. On-Demand Services
Mass Lawn Pros offers flexible options for snow removal, including seasonal contracts and on-demand services. With a seasonal contract, you receive priority service and consistent maintenance throughout the winter. This is especially useful for businesses that cannot afford downtime due to unpredictable weather. A seasonal contract also helps you save money by locking in rates and ensuring you’re always prepared for snow events.
For businesses with less frequent snow removal needs, on-demand services are available. While you may not receive the same level of priority as seasonal contract holders, this option allows you to call us as needed, making it a good choice for smaller properties or those with less foot traffic.
