ON-SITE SNOW MELTING

At Interstate, part of our expertise lies in helping our clients understand when it’s time to melt or relocate. We operate on the rule of thumb that if it’s impractical to haul and relocate snow or your facility is in need of parking space — it’s time to melt. Contrary to popular belief, with snow dump space in the Midwest diminishing and becoming more expensive, it often makes more sense both logistically and financially to melt snow on site. Our snow melting systems uses fewer emissions, eliminates potential damage to facilities, and filters out debris and chemicals before placing clean water in the stormwater system. Plus, when you partner with Interstate, your snow will be melted by three of the newest and best-performing snow melters in the market.
