When winter weather hits, the last thing your business needs is to figure out a plan in the middle of the mess.
For commercial properties, preparation goes beyond clearing snow. It’s about keeping people safe, maintaining access, and minimizing disruptions to daily operations.
Here are a few things our teams consider when developing a winter weather plan:
Entryways & Sidewalks: Keeping high-traffic pedestrians areas accessible and reducing slip hazards.
Parking Lots & Drive Lanes: Prioritizing access for employees, customers, residents, and emergency vehicles.
Loading Docks & Service Areas: Helping deliveries and essential operations continue safely.
Snow Storage Locations: Identifying where snow can be piled without blocking visibility, parking, drainage, or access.
Ice Management: Planning ahead for freezing temperatures, refreezing, and potentially hazardous surfaces.
The reality here is that the best time to prepare for winter weather is before its in the forecast (and ideally months before).
Many of our branches offer Winter Weather programs designed around the unique needs of commercial properties.
