Do snow removal companies need to be insured?

• <div><p>Yes, most states require that snow removal companies be insured under workers' compensation. This protects the employees financially if an injury were to happen (and when dealing with ice and snow, it’s possible that injury could occur). In addition, most states require snow removal companies to be covered under general liability, which would help cover the cost of any property damage incurred during the removal process.</p></div>

How much does snow removal cost?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-annual-snow-removal-contract-cost.htm">cost of a snow removal service</a> is around <b>$85</b>, but this depends heavily on the amount of snow, your location, and the seasonal demand. An annual snow removal contract will typically cost between <b>$200 and $600</b> for the season. Keep in mind that single services are usually based on the amount of snow, with every six inches adding to your total. You can expect to pay between <b>$40 and $200 </b>in most cases or as high as <b>$500 or more</b> for excessive snowfall. In many cases, it’s more affordable to enter into an annual contract.</p></div>

What is the cheapest way to remove snow?

• <div><p>DIY snow removal is entirely free, except for the cost of a shovel. However, it may not always be the best option for large driveways and areas with heavy snowfall; it’s strenuous work and can take a long time. Other wallet-friendly ways to remove snow include rock salt, hot water, a de-icing agent, or a leaf blower. </p></div>

Q: Does rubbing alcohol get rid of ice?

• <div><p>Rubbing alcohol may also remove ice from your driveway in a pinch. It has a lower freezing point than water, which expedites the unfreezing process. Pour 70 percent isopropyl alcohol into a quart or half-gallon spray bottle and spray it on your driveway. You do not have to dilute it with water.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a snow blower on a deck or patio?

• <div><p>Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.</p><p>You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn&rsquo;t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.</p></div>
