Environmental Policy
The SnowMen are committed to environmental stewardship in every aspect of our organization. We work with our employees to educate and promote effective policies that result in the delivery of services that are safe to our employees, our community and the environment.

- effective application and indoor storage of de-icers to reduce impact to groundwater
- ongoing training of employees of sound environmental practices
- no idle policy
- recycling of all office paperwork and scrap metal
- proper disposal of oils and waste
- in depth training of employees in spill management and control
