Recommended equipment: A four wheel drive vehicle; a Drive
Pro™ 6’-8” snow plow; snow shovels; and ice control equipment.
Recommended procedure: PLOW WITH THE STORM.
Begin plowing at the suggested accumulation for your type of
establishment. Continue until snow has been cleared. Don’t
forget - snowfall often surpasses weather forecasts. A well
planned clearing schedule will help prevent the necessity for
expensive emergency action.
A typical small-area strategy:
1. Keep in touch with local weather forecasts for preparatory
measures.
2. Notify scheduled personnel.
3. Have vehicles and equipment inspected, fueled and ready.
4. Clear area by pushing snow first to sides of drives. It is
often true that the smaller the establishment, the greater the
proportion of “trapped” areas which will require snow to be
hauled away. Always deposit snow as far back as possible
for greatest use of dumping areas.
5. Use snow shovels to clear walks, gates and doorways.
6. Treat with snow-melting materials as needed.
