Altgeld Gardens snow removal for community campuses

Snow plowing, shoveling, and de-icing for the Altgeld Gardens and Phillip Murray Homes community, including residential courts, schools, and community centers near the Calumet River.

Community-focused snow coverage

Altgeld Gardens spans wide residential courts and pedestrian paths that require coordinated snow removal. We map each court to assign the right equipment—compact plows for drive lanes and shovel teams for building entrances and stairwells.

Crews also clear key connectors to 130th Street, Stony Island Avenue, and the Bishop Ford Expressway so residents can commute safely during winter storms.

Safe access for services and programs

We maintain access to community anchors including the Altgeld Gardens Library, Childcare Center, and the Carver Park campus. Salting and shoveling schedules are coordinated around food distribution times, after-school programs, and athletic events.

Service logs help resident associations document compliance and secure funding for continued winter maintenance.

Monitoring challenging microclimates

The nearby Calumet River and wetlands can create dense fog and slick surfaces. We monitor local sensors and reapply de-icer when freezing rain or river moisture adds a glaze to sidewalks and ramps.

Seasonal clients receive updates via text or email, including photos if crews identify drainage issues or snow piles that need relocation.
