Snow removal
in Scranton, PA.

Driveways, sidewalks and the way to your door.

Every property needs a different clearing plan. A short driveway, a corner-lot sidewalk and a business frontage have different access demands. Tell us which routes matter most so the estimate covers the job you actually need.

• Residential driveways: discuss the route from your parking area or garage to the street, the slope and where snow can be placed.
• Sidewalks and walkways: identify public frontage, paths to the front door, gates and the areas people use on foot.
• Business entrances: explain opening hours, customer access, pedestrian routes and any space that needs priority attention.
• Steps and difficult access: disclose tight passages, uneven surfaces, steep areas and obstacles so we can assess the scope before agreeing.

We confirm the areas to clear, site limitations and snow-placement plan during the estimate. Parking areas, ice treatment, repeat visits and any off-site snow hauling are separate requests to discuss—not services to assume are included.

Scranton sidewalk snow rules: homes and businesses differ.

Scranton’s Quality of Life code requires responsible property parties to remove sidewalk snow and ice within 24 hours after it stops falling and create a clear path three feet wide. For a place of business, the code requires removal within four hours and the entire sidewalk free of snow and ice. If the snow or ice stops during darkness, the removal time limit begins at daybreak. Read the City of Scranton code.

Confirm current requirements and your property’s responsibilities with the City. Let us know about time-sensitive frontage when you call; scheduling is subject to availability and we cannot guarantee a municipal deadline.

Snow also needs a responsible destination. PennDOT advises keeping it out of roadways and highway drainage facilities and preserving entrance sightlines. For property adjoining a state road, its guidance is to pile snow to the right when facing the road, away from oncoming plows. See PennDOT’s driveway tips.

Discuss where snow can remain on your property. A return visit after street plowing leaves a ridge at your driveway is not automatic; agree on any follow-up needs in advance.

Call P&M at (570) 780-8074. Start with the exact property address and whether it is a home, rental or business. A clear description helps us assess the work and avoids surprises.

• The areas to clear and approximate driveway or sidewalk size.
• Current snow depth, packed snow or visible ice, and any steep or uneven surfaces.
• Access restrictions, parked cars, steps, gates and nearby obstacles.
• Where snow can be placed without blocking entrances, drainage or visibility.
• Your requested timing and whether you want to discuss repeated service or ice treatment.

The size, snow condition, access and agreed scope affect the estimate. We discuss pricing before you commit. Avoid leaning from windows or going onto a roof to take photos; ground-level information is enough to start the conversation.
