Snow removal in Baltimore, MD
Book local snow removal in Baltimore
Baltimore's rowhouse blocks put front steps, often marble, right at the sidewalk, and those steps get slippery fast once snow is packed down. Street parking is tight in neighborhoods like Canton and Federal Hill, so snow has to go somewhere other than the parking lane. Because storms often mix in sleet, clearing early before it freezes in place saves a lot of chipping later.
