Plowing, salting, sidewalk clearing and roof snow removal for Cohoes homes and businesses. Albany County, on a two inch trigger.
Frosty Snow Management provides residential and commercial snow removal in Cohoes, Albany County, covering Remsen Street, Van Schaick Island, Columbia Street 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.
Cohoes is a dense, hilly former mill city at the confluence of the Mohawk and Hudson, and it plows like one. The streets off Remsen and Columbia are narrow, the lots are small, the driveways are often single-width and shared, and there is very little room to put snow anywhere. Several neighborhoods sit on real grade, which combines badly with narrow streets when the banks build up. The converted mill and multi-family properties around Harmony Mills add commercial parking that fills quickly and has almost no perimeter for stacking.
Cohoes work is about stacking discipline more than anything else. On a narrow city driveway with a shared property line, where the snow goes on the first storm determines whether the driveway is still usable in February. We plan that on the first visit. We also handle multi-family and converted mill properties where resident parking has to be rotated to get the lot fully cleared, which needs coordination with property management rather than a truck showing up and plowing around parked cars.

“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.”
“After the recent snow storm our office building is good to go. My driveway and sidewalk are totally clean they texted ETA and updates the whole time. Best winter service I’ve used in years!”
We plan stacking from the first storm of the season rather than reacting in February, choosing the side that preserves usable width longest and keeping the street end sightline open. When a property genuinely runs out of capacity mid-season we quote relocating or hauling the pile instead of letting the driveway narrow to unusable.
Yes, and shared drives need both parties clear on where snow goes before the season starts, because that is what causes disputes. We agree the stacking plan at the site walk and service the full shared surface rather than half of it.
Yes. Properties around Harmony Mills and the converted mill buildings have resident parking that has to be rotated to clear a lot fully, so we coordinate timing with property management rather than plowing around parked vehicles and producing a lot that needs doing twice.
Grade plus narrow streets plus high banks is the hard combination here. On graded properties we set push direction so meltwater drains away from structures, and we recommend salting because refreeze on a sloped city driveway with nowhere to step aside is genuinely dangerous.
Yes, sidewalk frontage is included in city agreements. On narrow lots the sidewalk, the walk to the door and the steps are frequently the majority of the work, and they are where falls actually happen.
We look at the actual property, agree where the snow goes, then give you a real number. Routes fill before the season starts.
