Reliable Snow Removal Minneapolis: Winter Property Protection
When winter arrives in Minneapolis, protecting what you've built takes on a new dimension. A well-maintained property makes an impression year-round.
Cherry Hill Outdoor Landscape and Design is a full-service outdoor property company serving the Minneapolis/St. Paul metro and surrounding areas. Our snow removal and winter property management services safeguard the outdoor spaces you've invested in, held to the same standard of quality and reliability that defines every project we take on.
Snow Management Services
Effective winter property maintenance in Minneapolis requires more than snow plowing. We provide complete winter property protection across a full range of seasonal challenges:
Snow clearing and removal: We clear parking lots, driveways, and access roads using commercial-grade equipment, and handle walkways and entryways with the precision hand-clearing they require.
Ice management: We apply deicing materials strategically to address existing ice and prevent new formation, reducing slip-and-fall risks and freeze-thaw surface damage.
Drift management: We monitor drift-prone areas throughout the season and use snow fences and barriers to keep them clear and accessible.
Roof snow removal: We remove excess snow accumulation from rooftops to prevent structural damage on flat commercial roofs and complex residential structures.
Snow hauling: When on-site storage is limited, we transport snow off-site to preserve your usable property space.
Residential vs. Commercial Snow Removal
Cherry Hill Outdoor Landscape and Design offers commercial and residential snow removal services across the Twin Cities and surrounding areas. Each property type comes with its own demands, and we approach them accordingly. Here's how the two compare:

Frequently Asked Questions
What are Minneapolis sidewalk snow clearing rules?
Property owners in Minneapolis are required to clear snow and ice from city sidewalks within 24 hours after snowfall ends. This applies to both residential and commercial properties. Failure to clear sidewalks can result in warnings and fines. For full details, see the City of Minneapolis sidewalk snow clearing rules.
How does professional snow removal benefit Minneapolis property owners?
Professional snow removal prevents damage from snow accumulation, reduces liability from icy surfaces, and keeps your property accessible all season. For high-end residential properties, professional service also means your landscaping and hardscaping are handled with care.
Why are residential snow removal services worth the investment?
For homeowners who have invested in premium outdoor spaces, patios, or pool surrounds, residential snow removal services protect those surfaces from damage caused by improper clearing techniques or the wrong deicer products. Professional removal frees you from the liability and time commitment of managing snow yourself throughout the full Minnesota winter.
