HOA & condo association snow removal
Shared drive lanes, guest parking, mail kiosks and every homeowner's apron, cleared on one contract the board can actually budget.
One field to start. No account, no sales call — we come back with a real number.
Why hoa communities are different
An HOA contract fails in a specific way: forty-one driveways get done, one gets missed, and the board hears about that one at the next meeting. The complaint is never really about snow — it is about a resident who cannot tell whether the association is managing the vendor. So the thing that actually keeps a board out of trouble is not raw speed, it is a route map with every unit numbered on it and a log that shows which ones were cleared and when.
The second failure is quieter and more expensive. Shared lanes, visitor bays and the mail kiosk belong to nobody in particular, so they get treated as somebody else's problem until a resident slips at the cluster boxes and the association's carrier asks who was responsible for that twelve feet of concrete. We write those orphan surfaces into the scope explicitly, by name, before the season, because that is the only way they get cleared on the same pass as everything else.
What goes wrong without a plan
- Boards get blamed for the one drive that was missed, not the forty that were done
- Residents call the management company at 5 a.m., not the plow
- Shared lanes and visitor parking have no obvious owner until someone slips
What the contract actually specifies
- Unit-by-unit route map agreed with the board in the fall, so a missed drive is a traceable exception rather than a dispute
- Trigger set by board vote, not by us — most associations land on 2″ for drives and 1″ for shared lanes
- Stacking corners chosen before the first storm so piles never eat guest parking or block a sightline at the exit
- Mail kiosks, cluster boxes and clubhouse walks named in the scope rather than left to the phrase “common areas”
- One invoice to the association with a per-unit breakdown the treasurer can reconcile
What the program covers
- Drive lanes, cul-de-sacs and turnarounds
- Guest parking, mail kiosk and clubhouse walks
- Individual driveway aprons where the contract includes them
- Common sidewalks and mailbox clusters on their own hand-crew rotation
- Stacking plan agreed in the fall so piles never eat guest spaces
What moves the price on a hoa communitie site
- Number of driveway aprons, and whether the contract includes them or stops at the shared lane
- Total length of interior roads and the number of cul-de-sacs, which set the pass count
- Sidewalk footage and the number of mail and amenity clusters needing hand crews
The documentation half
Every visit is GPS-logged with arrival and departure times, the areas cleared and the material applied. That record is what settles a slip-and-fall argument, and it is the part most vendors cannot produce.

HOA communities questions
Do you clear individual driveways or only the shared roads?
Either, and the board decides which at signing. Roads-only is the cheaper contract and the more common complaint generator, because residents who cannot get off their own apron do not care that the lane is clear. If the association includes aprons, every unit goes on the route map by number.
What happens when one homeowner says they were skipped?
We send the visit log for that address with the timestamp and the areas cleared. That usually ends it. If we did miss the unit, we come back the same day and the visit is not billed.
Can the board change the trigger depth mid-season?
Yes, by a single call or text from whoever the board names as the point of contact. Associations that start at 2″ after a mild December often move to 1″ in January once residents have seen what 2″ actually looks like on a shared lane.
