Why Clearing Sidewalks, Walkways, Parking Areas, & Parking Lots is Important
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why Clearing Sidewalks, & Parking Lots is Important:Every commercial property consists of sidewalks, walkways, parking areas, parking lots, thoroughfares and other areas that the general public needs safe access.
Keeping these areas free of snow and ice is important not only to those trying to enter or exit the property but also reduces liability due to slips and falls.

Be Prepared:Clearing the surfaces of a commercial property takes advance planning.
It means knowing what the different surfaces are made of, how they will be treated before and after plowing, which ones need to be cleared and where the snow will be plowed to and finally whether or not large volumes of snow will need to be removed from the property because of any possible space limitations.
The areas of the property that need to stay free of ice and snow will require marking and any issues concerning obstructions, parking barriers, removable speed bumps and so on need to be addressed.
The professionals at Sinatra’s Snow Plowing LLC have over 20 years experience in snow removal from commercial properties in Western NY and will work with every business to resolve any such issues.

Having A Plan:Having a plan may be a good idea but what is needed is the right plan for your commercial property. A plan that is simply based on a guy with a snow plow on his truck coming through during a snow event is not a plan.
In recent years the commercial property owner’s exposure to liability for failure to have the proper snow removal plan in place has increased.
Even something as simple as non-commercial equipment being used to try to clear the commercial areas described above can increase your exposure to civil liability.
A department store snow thrower might be just fine for your home driveway but in commercial applications, commercial, professional grade gear is required to properly do the work.
The pros at Sinatra’s Snow Plowing LLC only use heavy duty, professional equipment when removing snow and ice. They also have the backup equipment and experienced professionals working behind the scenes keeping their gear in top working condition.

Local Ordinances:
Most cities, towns and villages REQUIRE property owners to clear snow and ice from sidewalks, walkways and thoroughfares after a snow event. The civil liabilities for slips and falls that result in injury caused by snow and ice covered areas described above become the responsibility of the property owner.
Taking into account that there are law firms that specialize in injuries resulting from accidental slips and falls only confirms that these areas must be kept free of snow and ice.
Another part of the proper snow removal plan is to make certain that the contractor handling the snow removal on your property conforms to ALL local and state ordinances.
