About Snow Salting Service
Introduction
Winter brings with it a flurry of tasks and responsibilities for commercial property owners and managers, none more important than ensuring safe, accessible conditions for patrons and staff. The most effective method to accomplish this is engaging a professional snow salting service. Capable of commercial parking lot salting, business driveway salting, and access sidewalk salting, these services are instrumental in maintaining safe and navigable spaces during the cold winter months.
The Importance of Snow Salting Services
Snow salting service is more than just a convenience; it is a proactive measure to ensure the safety and continuity of your business operations. When ice and snow accumulate on commercial properties, they create slippery surfaces that can lead to accidents and injuries. By employing regular ice melt application services, business owners can reduce the risk of accidents, protect their clients, employees, and property, and remain fully operational even during inclement weather.
Methods and Material: Deconstructing the Process
Snow salting service involves a comprehensive process of applying specialized ice melt compounds to surfaces, especially in high traffic areas such as parking lots and walkways. These ice melt application services typically use a blend of magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride to effectively melt ice and snow.
Commercial parking lot salting starts by pre-treating the area before a snow event to prevent the buildup of ice. The professionals then continue applications during the event to minimize snow accumulation. Post-event salting ensures the complete melting of any residual ice and snow. Similarly, business driveway salting and access sidewalk salting follow a similar sequence of procedures to ensure complete safety.
Equipment Used in Snow Salting
Professional snow salting services use specialized equipment designed for efficient and fast application. Equipment includes salt trucks for larger surfaces like parking lots, and handheld spreaders for more targeted areas such as access sidewalks, stairs, and doorways.
Benefits of Professional Snow Salting Service
Beyond providing a slip-free parking lot or walkway, employing a professional snow salting service bears numerous additional benefits. The primary benefit being that you can keep your business open and accessible during the winter months. Also, by outsourcing this task, you can ensure that a professional team with the ability to effectively, efficiently, and safely remove snow handles it.
The use of professional services also helps prolong pavement life since the correct application of ice melt products lessens damage to concrete and asphalt. Preserving your pavement means fewer patches, less cracking, less fading, and reduced maintenance costs overall. When balanced against potential liability costs and lost business due to inaccessible premises, snow salting services prove to be not only beneficial but also cost-effective.
Selecting the Right Snow Salting Service
When selecting a snow salting service provider, consider their experience, reputation, and reliability. Choose a provider that employs trained professionals and uses effective techniques and appropriate equipment. Local optimization is key here. Consider a service provider with good local knowledge and experience to understand regional weather patterns and response strategies.
Conclusion
A professional snow salting service is a strategic investment in the longevity of your commercial property and the well-being of everyone who uses it. Such a service doesn’t just provide commercial parking lot salting, business driveway salting, and access sidewalk salting—it offers the peace of mind that comes from knowing you have made every reasonable effort to keep your property safe during the winter months.
If you’re ready to experience the benefits of professional snow salting services, don’t delay. The time to prepare for winter is now. Partner with a reputable provider who can offer a comprehensive range of services that include business driveway salting, walkway salting services, and commercial parking lot salting. The investment in a snow salting service today could save you a significant amount tomorrow.

About Broad Acres, Michigan
History
The first settlement on the land that is now Clinton Township was called Gnadenhuetten and was established in 1782 by Rev. David Zeisberger, but closed in 1786. It was organized as “Huron Township” on August 12, 1818, named after what was then known as the Huron River. Because of confusion with another Huron River south of Detroit, on July 17, 1824, the Michigan Territorial Legislature renamed both the township and the river after DeWitt Clinton, the popular governor of New York from 1817 to 1823 who was largely responsible for building the Erie Canal which enabled many settlers to come to Michigan.
Moravian Drive is the township’s oldest road, dating back to the days when Moravian missionaries settled to attempt to convert the local Native Americans.
Geography
Clinton Township is in south-central Macomb County. The city of Mount Clemens, the Macomb county seat, is bordered on three sides by the northeast part of the township.
According to the United States Census Bureau, Clinton Township has a total area of 28.37 square miles (73.5 km), of which 28.03 square miles (72.6 km2) are land and 0.35 square miles (0.91 km), or 1.22%, are water. The Clinton River, for which the community is named, is formed from three branches within the township. It runs east into Harrison Township, where it flows into Lake St. Clair. The township is home to many parks, notably George George Memorial Park.
