Mount Vernon’s frequent rain-snow mix and fluctuating temperatures create slushy, refreezing conditions that make untreated surfaces dangerously slick. The combination of heavy traffic, freezing rain, and urban snow accumulation increases the risk of ice buildup in parking lots, sidewalks, and loading zones. Without proper snow removal, packed snow can become compacted and difficult to clear, requiring proactive plowing, shoveling, and de-icing services to keep commercial properties safe and accessible.
