"The service provided to our nine off-site locations was excellent. In fact, I received the fewest complaints and concerns from the managers of the off-sites that I have had in the past 12 years that I have been managing the sites. Looking forward to another season!"

Property Manager – Saint Mary's Health Care

Winter weather in West Michigan can certainly be unpredictable. Fortunately, our team is dedicated to monitoring the weather and ensuring that our clients' sites are clear and as safe as possible for each new business day. All of our equipment is equipped with GPS technology which provides our dispatch center with real-time information and allows our team to manage our operators with maximum efficiency. We offer seasonal, per time, as well as all-inclusive pricing so that we can best meet our clients' needs.

Parking Lot Plowing

Maintaining a clear parking lot for your customers and staff is essential for your business.  That is why for each snow event we have as many as 100 units out working to clear the snow as quickly as possible.  Our snowplowing routes are limited to no more than 6 hours each so that weather permitting, all routes can be completed by 6:00am.  DJ’s also maintains a blizzard contingency of additional equipment ready when the weather is at its worst.

Parking Lot Salting

Since even a parking lot clear of snow can still be hazardous, we also offer parking lot salting services to provide that extra measure of safety for your property.  With 4 strategically located storage facilities in addition to the main storage facility at our Kentwood location, we have the capacity to store up more than 7000 tons of salt.  We also pre-treat all of our salt with a chemical bonding agent to enhance its effectiveness at lower temperatures. 

If a threat for freezing temperatures and slippery conditions occurs, we have units out checking conditions throughout the day or night.  In the midst of a snow or ice event we have a fleet of as many as 13 units out spreading salt to minimize the risk of ice build up and related slip and falls.  We continually strive for efficiency and accuracy in our applications, so all of our machines are specially calibrated to allow our drivers to salt smartly. While it is important to apply enough salt to effectively melt ice build up, applying too much salt can have a negative impact on the surrounding landscape.  

Sidewalk Clearing

Many of our clients who receive parking lot plowing services receive sidewalk clearing services as well. Our shoveling staff consists of approximately 30 crews with 3 members per crew.  Our crews use various methods from traditional shovels to motorized ATV and RTV units with plows to clear sidewalks and walkways.  Our crews work in conjunction with our plowing staff to ensure each property is effectively cleared of accumulating snow. 

Sidewalk Deicer

We recommend that our sidewalk clearing crews also apply a deicing agent to the sidewalks to minimize the risk of ice build up and related slip and falls.  This service can be performed after each shoveling occurrence or at our crew’s discretion. DJ’s blends our own sidewalk deicer called “Premium Ice Melter”. Our proprietary blend consists of magnesium, calcium, and sodium chloride to keep your walks looking their best.
