Snow removal in Saint Paul, MN
Snow shoveling in Saint Paul, on demand
Saint Paul mixes older houses on narrow lots with steep streets on the bluffs around Summit Hill and the river valley, so shoveling often means stairs, retaining walls and slopes. Many blocks have alleys, boulevards and street parking that fills with plowed snow, and owners and managers must clear the sidewalks in front of their homes and businesses, corner curb cuts included.
