Snow Removal in Middletown

Common questions about snow removal

How much does snow removal cost in Middletown?

Per-visit pricing for an average residential driveway typically runs in the range of moderate double digits, while seasonal contracts (covering the whole winter regardless of storm count) usually cost more upfront but protect you against a heavy-snow year. Commercial lots are priced by square footage and complexity, so get a site visit before comparing quotes.

How often will a crew need to plow or salt during a storm?

Most contracts specify a trigger depth, often around 2 inches, that automatically sends a crew out. During a long storm, expect multiple passes to keep driveways and walkways passable rather than a single clearing at the end.

What should I expect from a seasonal snow removal contract?

A seasonal contract should spell out the trigger depth, response time window, what surfaces are covered (driveway, walkways, steps), and whether salting or de-icing is included or billed separately. Ask for this in writing before the first storm hits.

How do I judge the quality of a snow removal company before winter starts?

Check that they carry liability insurance, ask about their equipment (trucks with plows versus hand crews), and ask how they prioritize clients when multiple storms hit back to back. A company that can explain its storm-response plan clearly is usually more reliable than one that just quotes a price.
