COMMERCIAL SNOW PLOWING POUGHKEEPSIE NY

Yes. MJK Solutions is fully insured, and a certificate naming your entity is issued on execution of the agreement — before the first storm, not after you ask twice in December. W-9 and standard vendor onboarding paperwork are available on request, and certificates can be reissued at any point in the season.

That is set in the agreement, and you choose it. Per-push service runs on the trade standard — plowing is dispatched once accumulation reaches 2 inches, measured at pavement level. Seasonal contracts are written either at that same 2-inch-plus threshold, or at zero tolerance, which has no threshold at all: the property is serviced whenever conditions require it, plowing or de-icing, including ice, freezing rain and hardpack that never adds up to a measurable inch. Properties with constant traffic, 24-hour operations or real slip-and-fall exposure belong on zero tolerance. Either way, storms with continuous accumulation are serviced with multiple passes so access stays open.

For overnight and early-morning storms the target is a plowed and treated lot before your doors open — weekends included. For storms that run through your business day we return to keep drive lanes and lot entrances open, working around parked cars, then complete full curb-to-curb clearing after you close. We work toward those targets on every storm, but honest contractors do not guarantee them: storm duration, road conditions, equipment and mandatory crew rest all affect timing, and we will not run crews when conditions make it unsafe.

Both. Most commercial accounts run a full-season contract from November 1 through April 15 at a fixed price that covers the winter regardless of event count, billed as a deposit plus installments — which puts the risk of a heavy season on us. We also write a seasonal base that covers a normal winter’s number of events with anything beyond it billed at published rates, and straight per-event service priced by accumulation tier. Seasonal accounts are serviced ahead of per-event accounts on every storm.

We de-ice with Magic Salt — bulk rock salt treated with an agricultural by-product that keeps working at lower pavement temperatures, scatters less so coverage per ton is better, and is less corrosive to concrete, metal and plantings than untreated rock salt. Application is judged on pavement temperature, forecast, precipitation type and refreeze risk. Our snow service covers parking lots, drive lanes and lot entrances; sidewalks and building walkways are not included. De-icing reduces bonding and improves traction; it is risk reduction, not a guarantee of bare pavement.

Yes. Multiple sites go under one contract, one scope and one invoice, with the plow order set before the season. It is also how the price comes down — a route of properties near each other costs less to run than the same properties booked one at a time.
