We recently had the pleasure of working with the City of Valdez Parks & Recreation to do some snow blowing out at the shooting range. Thanks to our operator Aaron for the fantastic work and video. Check it out Valdez!

Scrape, sand, repeat. Moving snow is our specialty, but did you know we also have a knack for traction? We make mitigating slick and icy conditions a priority. This windy, cold weather has a way of making parking lot and driveway conditions hazardous. Injuries by way of ice are the last thing we want.

Roof shed got you down? There’s no project too big for the blower and our operators to tackle. Another strange winter for us here in snow town. We’re doing our best to make the most of the wind and cold.

An important update from DOT ‼️

Hey, ,

DOT&PF is actively monitoring flooding along the Richardson Highway, including Dayville Road and Hazelet Avenue, and developing a plan to address affected areas as soon as conditions allow.

👷‍♂️ Crews are working to open drainage channels through snow berms to help move water into ditches. Due to snow depth, we have not yet been able to confirm whether the culverts beneath the Richardson Highway that drain to the ocean are open.

At this time, we believe the drains along Hazelet Avenue are frozen. We are coordinating with the Tazlina District to bring a steam truck to Valdez once the roadway reopens, which is anticipated tomorrow.

📍 Please continue to check 511.alaska.gov for the most up-to-date road conditions and travel information. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 🚗❄️

Things are picking up this winter and we are hard at work on this sloppy, wet snow day! We are thankful for our dynamic crew and equipment out getting it done in these challenging conditions.

If you have a service request, please follow the link to our website and click "Request Service." After our normal customers are taken care of, we will be addressing new customer requests as well as cleanup and digout work that we usually complete between storms.

Thank you Valdez! We appreciate you and we are happy to be out moving snow.
