Do you provide 24/7 snow and ice management service?
We specialize in servicing organizations that require snow and ice management 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our crews and our customer service representatives are on call round-the-clock during the winter months.
What is your normal response time to a request for service and how is it coordinated?

 

Our commitment is to respond to service requests in less than an hour. Gasaway Maintenance Company representatives monitor incoming phone, email and text communication 24 hours a day, 7 days a week during the winter months. If our main phone lines are busy, an automated back-up system supports the overload. If there is a power outage, an on-site generator backs up our entire operation. After a request is made, we dispatch the necessary crew and contact the client to provide an estimated time of service.
How does your company secure salt availability when suppliers run short?
We store over 750 tons of salt in the salt domes at our operations centers. We have long term contracts with the three major suppliers with stockpiles in the Chicago area. These relationships help us secure adequate supply – even during a shortage.

Our sister company, Gasaway Distributors, supplies deicers to the Illinois Department of Transportation, local municipalities and public agencies and is one of the largest purchasers of chlorides in the area. We leverage this priority status to source from other parts of the country when general supplies run short.
