Salting is optional and based on customer preference. We have salt spreaders on each truck during the winter season. Spreading salt promotes safety! Wet snow and ice can create dangerous conditions causing slips and falls. Let us help make your environment more safe. We use calcium chloride salt, also known as “safe salt”. This type of salt does not damage pavement.
