The city blends a historic downtown with growing residential neighborhoods on its west and south sides. Winter in Faribault brings an average of 40-55 inches of snowfall, along with ice storms, freezing rain, and sub-zero temperatures that can make properties hazardous. Proactive snow management is not a luxury in Rice County — it is a necessity for safety and liability protection.

Our snow plowing fleet includes trucks equipped with commercial-grade plows, salt spreaders, and sanding equipment. We deploy resources based on storm intensity and forecast, and our radio-dispatch system ensures efficient routing across our service area, including Faribault. When a storm triggers our activation threshold, crews are on the road clearing properties — often before you wake up.

For commercial clients in Faribault, we offer seasonal snow management contracts that provide priority service, guaranteed response times, and predictable monthly billing. These contracts typically cover plowing, salting, sidewalk shoveling, and ice melt application for the entire winter season. Many Faribault business owners and property managers prefer this approach because it eliminates billing surprises and ensures their properties are always cleared promptly.
