Your lot is open before your doors are. Documented service records, dedicated route crews, and liability you can actually defend.
Frosty Snow Management provides commercial snow removal for Capital Region retail, office, medical, industrial and multi-family properties. Service includes plowing, sidewalk clearing, salting and de-icing on a contracted trigger, with time-stamped service documentation for insurance and liability defense.
A commercial property has a different problem from a house. If a driveway does not get plowed until 9 AM, someone is late for work. If a retail lot does not get plowed until 9 AM, the store loses a morning of revenue, an employee falls in the lot, and the property manager spends the next eighteen months in a slip and fall claim trying to prove what was done and when.
Frosty Snow Management manages commercial snow and ice across Albany, Rensselaer, Schenectady and Saratoga counties for retail plazas, office parks, medical and dental practices, warehouses, apartment complexes, restaurants and property management portfolios. Every site gets a documented plan before the season, a dedicated route crew during it, and a service record after every event.
That last part is what most contractors skip and what matters most when something goes wrong. We log the time on site, the time off site, the surfaces treated and the material applied for every visit. If a claim lands on your desk in July, you have a defensible record rather than a memory.
Lots and entrances open before your first customer. Cart corrals, patio access and curb cuts included so nobody steps off a curb into a windrow.
Accessible parking, ramps and entry paths treated first. Patients arriving on foot with mobility issues are the highest-risk users on any lot.
Multiple properties under one contract, one invoice structure and one point of contact, with per-site documentation your owners can review.
Truck aprons, dock approaches and yard turning radius kept usable so freight keeps moving through the storm.
Resident parking rotations, dumpster access, mail and package areas, and interior walkways between buildings.
Event-driven schedules where the property has to be clear for a specific time rather than a standard opening hour.
New York property owners and managers carry real exposure for snow and ice conditions on their premises. A slip and fall claim is defended with records, not with assurances. The three questions that always come up are what was done, when was it done, and what material was applied.
We answer all three for every service visit. Each event produces a record with arrival and departure times, the surfaces plowed, the walkways cleared, and the type and quantity of de-icing material used. Property managers can request these records at any point in the season, and we provide the full season log at the end of the winter.
We carry commercial general liability coverage and provide certificates of insurance naming your entity as additional insured where your contract or lender requires it. Ask for it during the quote, not in January.
Seasonal contracts fix the cost for the whole winter regardless of snowfall, which is the structure most property managers prefer because it makes the budget line predictable and removes any incentive to argue about whether a service visit was necessary.
Per-event contracts bill by the storm, usually with tiered pricing by accumulation band, with plowing, sidewalks and salting itemized separately. Time and materials is available for irregular or one-off work such as snow hauling and roof clearing.
We will tell you which structure fits your property rather than defaulting to whichever one pays us more. A high-traffic retail lot in Clifton Park and a small professional office in Delmar should not be on the same contract.
We sequence commercial routes by opening hour, so a lot that opens at 6 AM is serviced ahead of one that opens at 9 AM. The target is a clear, treated lot and entrance before your first employee arrives, not before your first customer.
Yes, on every visit. Each service record includes arrival and departure time, surfaces plowed, walkways cleared and the de-icing material applied. This is what you need to defend a slip and fall claim, and it is included in the contract rather than billed as an extra.
Yes. We carry commercial general liability coverage and can issue a certificate of insurance naming your entity as additional insured where your lease, contract or lender requires it. Request it during the quoting process so it is in place before the season starts.
We plan stacking areas at the pre-season site walk to preserve parking capacity as long as possible. When a heavy season fills those areas, we quote snow relocation within the site or hauling off site so you do not lose spaces in February when you need them most.
Both, and sidewalks are where most commercial claims actually originate. Walkways, entrances, accessible parking access aisles, ramps and curb cuts are itemized in the contract and cleared and treated as part of the standard event response.
Yes. We work with property management companies across the Capital Region on multi-site contracts with a single point of contact and per-site service documentation, so each owner or tenant gets a record specific to their building.
