Residential snow removal in Cleveland
We clear driveways, front walks and sidewalks, porches and steps so you can get out the door and back in safely. Tell us about your driveway and how much sidewalk you have, and we quote it.
Most homes need the driveway and a walkway cleared together, which is what our $40 starting price covers on a small property. Larger driveways, corner lots and extra sidewalk cost more.
Snow blowing, shoveling and salting
We clear snow with snow blowers and shovels, and we apply ice melt with salting equipment. Snow blowing and shoveling handle driveways, long walks, steps and tight spots.
We do not offer plow-truck service or parking-lot plowing. If you need a lot plowed, we are not the right fit, and we would rather say so up front.
Ice removal and salting services
Lake-effect snow, freeze-thaw cycles and refreezing meltwater leave walks and steps slick. Ice melt can be added to a snow visit, and you can ask us about salting-only visits when ice is the main problem.
Per-storm or recurring winter service
Choose per-storm service when you want to call as needed, or ask about recurring winter service so your driveway and walks are on our list all season. Use Reserve Winter Service to get started.
Ask how timing works for your property when you request your quote.
Small commercial sidewalks and entryways
We also clear sidewalks and entryways for small storefronts, offices and rental properties. This is snow blower and shovel work, not plowing, and it is quoted property by property.
What affects your snow removal quote
Your quote depends on property size, snowfall depth, sidewalk length and whether you want salting. Heavy snow, roughly 4 to 6 inches or more, adds a depth surcharge.
Snow Removal pricing
Starting prices are below. Pricing varies by job size and scope, and we confirm an exact quote before any work begins.
Final pricing depends on property size, condition, access, job scope, debris volume, disposal requirements, location, and other project-specific factors.

Do you do driveway and sidewalk snow removal?
Yes. We clear residential driveways, sidewalks and walkways, porches and steps, and small commercial sidewalks and entryways.

No. We clear snow with snow blowers, shovels and salting equipment, so we focus on driveways, sidewalks, steps and entryways. We do not currently offer plow-truck service or parking-lot plowing.

Both. You can book per-storm service, or ask about recurring winter service. Use Reserve Winter Service to get started.
