Residential Snow Removal across Waukegan and Lake County
Residential work is mostly driveways, front walks and the apron at the street, which is the piece the village plow leaves behind and the piece that matters if you need to get a car out at 6am.
Most homeowners take a per-storm arrangement rather than a season contract, and a lot of the calls come from people who could shovel it but should not: a bad back, a hip, a night shift, or a house being managed from out of town. Driveways are cleared to pavement rather than scraped roughly, and the apron gets opened after the village plow has been through if that is what the driveway needs.
Same-storm availability depends on how the commercial route is running that night. It is worth asking early in the season rather than during the first big storm, when everyone calls at once.

Residential Snow Removal questions
Do you take one-off residential jobs?
Yes, though availability during a big storm depends on where the commercial route stands. Booking before the season is the reliable way to get on the list.
Do you clear the apron the village plow leaves at the end of the driveway?
Yes, that ridge is part of the job. It is usually the heaviest, densest snow on the property.
What area do you cover?
Waukegan and Lake County, Illinois, including Gurnee, Zion, North Chicago, Libertyville, Mundelein, Grayslake, Vernon Hills, Lake Forest, Highland Park, Deerfield, Buffalo Grove, the Round Lake and Fox Lake areas and the northern towns up to the state line.
Do you take commercial and residential work?
Both. Most of the work is commercial: parking lots, multi-unit properties, retail and office. Residential driveways are taken on per-storm and seasonal arrangements as route capacity allows.
How do you charge for snow removal?
Three ways. A fixed seasonal contract, a per-push rate billed per storm, or per job for one-off work like hauling and emergency call-outs. Salting is either bundled into a seasonal rate or billed per application.
