Snow removal in Jersey City, NJ
Book local snow removal in Jersey City
Jersey City mixes brownstone blocks, rowhouses and high-rise towers, and most homes front a busy public sidewalk with little room to pile snow. Street parking is tight, so plow ridges along parked cars and at corner curb ramps are often the hardest part of a cleanup. Storms near the Hudson tend to bring wet, heavy snow that is tiring to move by hand.
