Snow Removal

Some winters bring feet of snow, some bring almost none.

Snow in Delaware is hard to predict from one winter to the next. Average yearly snowfall across Delaware ranges from about 9 to 20 inches, with the north end of the state at the high end, which puts central Delaware somewhere in between. The swings matter more than the averages. The last few decades run from roughly six feet of snow in the winter of 2009 to 2010 down to only a trace in 1997 to 1998. In February 2010 a station near Bear in New Castle County measured 46.9 inches, the state's record for a single month.

What we clear is the part of your property you need to use: the driveway, the front walk, the steps, and the path to the mailbox or the trash cans. Clearing before tires pack the snow down makes the job easier and leaves less ice behind. We push snow to the sides of the driveway and keep it out of the street, since many Delaware communities forbid clearing snow onto the road. Piles go where their meltwater will not run back across the walk and ice over at night.

Sidewalks come with their own rules. Delaware towns set their own deadlines for clearing the public sidewalk in front of a property, from two hours after a snowfall in one town to 24 hours in the state's largest cities. If that stretch of sidewalk is your responsibility, we can clear it along with the driveway and walks. The simplest way onto our route is a call or text before the first storm, so your address is already on the list when the snow starts falling.

07 / FAQ

Snow Removal questions, answered.

Call or text (302) 244-2121 before the first storm with your address and what you want cleared: the driveway, walks, steps or the public sidewalk. We add you to the list, so there is nothing to arrange in the middle of a storm.

Across the state, average yearly snowfall falls between about 9 and 20 inches, with more in the north, so central Delaware lands in the middle. Some winters bring almost none and some bring several big storms, which is why getting on a list early makes sense.

In many Delaware towns, yes. Owners are usually responsible for the public sidewalk along their property, with a deadline after the snow stops that differs by town. Check your town's code for the exact rule, and if you want it handled, we can add the sidewalk to your driveway and walks.

Yes. We dig out and level the base, set the block, and backfill so the wall stays straight. Then we can finish the bed with stone, mulch, and plants.
