Snow removal in Hoboken, NJ
Book local snow removal in Hoboken
Hoboken is a compact grid of brownstones, row houses and apartment buildings along the Hudson, where almost every building fronts a busy sidewalk and very few have driveways. Stoops, curb cuts and the gutter along the curb all need clearing, and the City expects a wide path on every sidewalk. Street parking is tight, so cars stay put under the snow that plows push to the curb.
