Snow removal in Scranton, PA

Book local snow removal in Scranton

Scranton is built on the hillsides of the Lackawanna Valley, so many streets and driveways are steep and older homes often have front steps down to the sidewalk. Clearing snow here can mean a sloped driveway, stairs and a stretch of public walk, and the city's property maintenance code puts the sidewalk on whoever owns or occupies the property.

What winter looks like in Scranton

Scranton's valley location in northeastern Pennsylvania brings snow from both coastal storms and clipper systems, and temperatures often swing around freezing. Snow that melts during the day and refreezes at night leaves icy patches on hills and steps.

Typical snowfall. Scranton's official station at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport in Avoca averages about 45 inches of snow a season (45.1 inches, 1991-2020 normals). Source: NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020 (annual/seasonal).
