Plowing, salting, sidewalk clearing and roof snow removal for Albany homes and businesses. Albany County, on a two inch trigger.
Frosty Snow Management provides residential and commercial snow removal in Albany, Albany County, covering Pine Hills, Center Square, Delaware Avenue and the surrounding area. Service triggers automatically at two inches. Seasonal contracts and per-storm billing are both available, and crews run 24/7 during storms.
Albany is a hard city to plow well, and anyone who tells you otherwise has not worked here. The rowhouse blocks around Center Square and Hudson Avenue have no driveways at all, so everything happens at the curb where the city plow has already built a wall. Pine Hills packs narrow drives between houses set eight feet apart. The New Scotland Avenue and Buckingham Pond blocks have wider lots but mature street trees and tight turning room. Add alternate side parking rules that keep shifting during a declared snow emergency and you have a city where the difference between a good contractor and a bad one is entirely about planning, not horsepower.
We run residential routes across Pine Hills, Delaware Avenue, Whitehall and the Helderberg neighborhoods, and commercial work through the Central Avenue and Washington Avenue Extension corridors, the medical district around Albany Med and New Scotland Avenue, and office properties downtown. City properties get a stacking plan on the first visit of the season, because on a twelve foot Albany driveway the question is never whether we can move the snow, it is where it goes in January when the banks are already at shoulder height and the answer changes everything about how the rest of the winter goes.

“Great Job by these guys this past winter! Plowed my stores and also my personal home. Communication was the best I’ve ever seen.”
“I had an absolutely fantastic experience with Frosty Snow Management. From the get go, their team was super friendly and professional. They showed up right on time, tackled the heavy snow with ease, and left everything spotless.”
That is the real question in Pine Hills and Center Square, and we answer it at the first visit of the season rather than the fifth. We stack to the side that preserves the most usable width across the whole winter, keep the sightline at the street end open, and where a property genuinely runs out of room by February we relocate or haul the pile rather than let the driveway narrow to one car.
Yes. Albany requires property owners to clear the public sidewalk adjacent to their property after snow stops, and enforcement is real. Sidewalk clearing and treatment is included in both our residential and commercial agreements in the city, and it is the surface where most claims start.
Yes, though the work is walkway, steps and stoop clearing rather than plowing, plus the sidewalk frontage. On blocks with no off-street parking the curb line is the city’s responsibility and we work around whatever the city plow has left. Tell us at the site walk which access points matter.
During a declared emergency the alternate side rules change and cars move, which changes what is reachable. We schedule around the posted schedule where we can and coordinate with commercial clients on when their lot is actually clear of vehicles, because plowing around parked cars produces a lot that has to be done twice.
Yes, and medical properties are sequenced early because patients arriving on foot with mobility limitations are the highest-risk users on any property. Accessible parking, access aisles, ramps and entry paths are treated as first priority rather than cleaned up after the lot.
We look at the actual property, agree where the snow goes, then give you a real number. Routes fill before the season starts.
