We've Been Moving Snow Since Before GPS

Emerson Excavating and Trucking has been handling heavy-duty work in West Glens Falls for years. We know these roads, these weather patterns, and exactly how much snow this area gets hit with each winter.

Our Snow Removal Process

How We Keep You Clear All Winter

We start by walking your property before the first snowfall. We identify the best places to pile snow, mark any obstacles, and plan the most efficient clearing pattern. No surprises when we’re working in the dark during a storm.

When snow starts falling, we monitor conditions and deploy based on your specific trigger depth. Some properties need clearing at two inches, others can wait until four. We clear according to your business needs, not a one-size-fits-all schedule.

After plowing, we handle ice management on walkways and high-traffic areas. We pile snow where it won’t block visibility or drainage. Before we leave, we do a final check to make sure every area is safe and accessible. You get a clear property that stays that way.

What's Included in Professional Snow Removal

How quickly do you respond during snowstorms in West Glens Falls?

We start clearing properties based on your predetermined trigger depth, usually between 2-4 inches depending on your needs. During active storms, we’re typically on-site within 2-4 hours of reaching your trigger point. For our priority commercial accounts, we often begin clearing before dawn to ensure properties are accessible when businesses open. We don’t wait for storms to end – we clear throughout the event to prevent snow from becoming too heavy to move efficiently.
We maintain backup equipment specifically for this reason. Our trucks and plows are serviced regularly before winter season, and we keep spare equipment ready to deploy. If a primary truck has issues, we have backup units that can take over immediately. This is why we’ve built our reputation on reliability – we plan for equipment problems before they happen. In our years of operation, we’ve never left a property uncleared due to equipment failure.
Yes, ice management is included in our snow removal service for walkways, steps, and high-traffic pedestrian areas. We apply ice melt products to prevent slip hazards and ensure safe walking surfaces. For large parking areas, we can provide salt or sand application as an additional service. We use the right materials for the conditions – ice melt for extreme cold, rock salt for typical winter weather, and sand for traction when needed. We focus on keeping your property safe, not just clear.
We price based on your property size, complexity, and service frequency requirements. We offer both per-storm pricing and seasonal contracts. Seasonal contracts provide budget predictability – you pay the same amount regardless of snowfall amounts. Per-storm pricing works better for properties that don’t need clearing after every snowfall. We provide written estimates after evaluating your property, and our pricing includes all standard snow removal and ice treatment. No surprise charges or hidden fees.
Proper snow removal protects your property rather than damaging it. We mark landscaping features and obstacles before winter begins. Our operators know how to pile snow without blocking drainage or damaging plants. We use appropriate equipment for your surface type and avoid scraping pavement down to bare asphalt unless necessary. Heavy snow left in place actually causes more damage through ice formation and freeze-thaw cycles. Professional removal prevents these problems while protecting your investment.
We handle both residential and commercial snow removal in West Glens Falls. For residential properties, we focus on driveways, walkways, and areas around homes. Our equipment can handle everything from small residential drives to large commercial parking lots. Residential service is typically scheduled after commercial properties are cleared, usually by mid-morning. We offer the same reliability and professional service regardless of property size. Many of our residential clients are homeowners who need dependable service they can count on all winter long.
