Although you may not want to think about it in August, snow and ice season is only several months away, and may be even closer, depending on where you live. If you service areas that are prone to wet and freezing temperatures, chances are you will be responsible for ice and snow removal. Planning now for bad weather events will help you respond quickly, efficiently, and profitably. Many locations have laws that require prompt snow and ice removal from public sidewalks and commercial properties. Ice and snow removal involves shoveling, plowing, and applying ice-melting and anti-slip products, such as salt or sand.
