Winter Ready: Expert Snow and Ice Removal Tips for Safe, Accessible Property
February 6, 2026

Winter in Middle Tennessee can bring unexpected snow and ice that creates slippery driveways, blocked walkways, and safety hazards for families and businesses. At Epperson Landscape, we know that reliable snow and ice removal keeps your property safe, accessible, and running smoothly all season long.

Why Snow and Ice Removal Matters


Snow and ice buildup is more than a nuisance. Left unchecked it can:

  • Create hazardous walking and driving surfaces
  • Increase liability risks for businesses
  • Damage property and landscaping features
  • Disrupt daily routines and access points


Clearing snow and ice promptly helps protect people, vehicles, and the overall value of your property. Snow and ice removal isnt just about aesthetics; its about safety and usability.


Professional Snow and Ice Removal Services


At Epperson Landscape, we offer tailored snow and ice removal solutions for commercial and residential properties in Nashville and surrounding areas. Our team monitors the weather so we can respond quickly before ice forms, and we use proven techniques and quality equipment to ensure efficient clearing.


Our snow and ice removal includes:

  • Commercial snow plowing for parking lots and driveways
  • Walkway and sidewalk clearing
  • Ice melt application to prevent slick surfaces
  • Rapid storm response to keep properties functional


By trusting professionals to manage your winter cleanup, you save time and avoid the strain and risk that come with DIY snow removal.


Smart Snow and Ice Removal Tips


Whether you plan to hire help or clear snow yourself, these best practices can improve safety and efficiency:

  1. Start Early and Often
    Removing fresh snow before it compacts prevents hard ice layers that are much tougher to clear. Moving snow when it is light can vastly reduce effort.
  2. Use the Right Tools
    Snow shovels, snow blowers, plows, and spreaders all serve different needs. Choose the tools that match the size of your property and the depth of snow.
  3. Apply Ice Melt Strategically
    Ice melt helps reduce slip hazards on concrete and pavement. Apply it before a storm if possible to limit ice forming and after you remove snow to improve traction.
  4. Dress for Safety
    Wear layered clothing, gloves, and non slip footwear. Cold conditions can increase heart strain, so take breaks and avoid overexertion.
  5. Mark Hazard Zones
    Clearly mark steps, curbs, and irregular surfaces so you and others can see potential trip spots when snow covers them.


Following these simple practices not only protects you and your guests, but it also makes snow and ice removal faster and more effective.
