As a commercial property manager in Detroit Lakes, you know that winter isn't just a weather event—it’s a liability. When the snow starts falling in Becker County, your top priorities are keeping your doors open and ensuring your customers (and their lawyers) stay safe.
At Miller Yard Care & Construction, we believe that "good enough" isn't acceptable when it comes to winter safety. That is why we have invested heavily in Live Edge snow plows, utilizing industry-leading technology from Metal Pless and Arctic Snow and Ice.
You might see a plow as just a big piece of metal, but the difference between a standard rigid plow and the Live Edge equipment we run impacts your bottom line more than you think.
Traditional snow plows have a single, rigid steel blade. When that blade hits a dip in your parking lot, it glides over it, leaving a patch of snow behind. When it hits a high spot (like a manhole cover or speed bump), it jumps, leaving a streak of ice.
Live Edge technology is different. Instead of one long blade, these plows are made up of multiple independent sections that float up and down. Whether we are using our Metal Pless or Arctic pushers, the blade "contours" to the uneven surfaces of your pavement. It moves like a snake over the ground, ensuring constant contact from curb to curb.

For commercial property managers and business owners, winter isn't just about snow; it's about managing risk, ensuring accessibility, and maintaining business continuity. While any snow removal service can clear a path, the quality of that clearing makes all the difference. A pass with a snow blower or shovel often leaves behind a compacted layer of snow—a hidden liability waiting to happen.
At Miller Yard Care, we address this problem head-on. After the bulk of the snow is moved, we use specialized power brooms to sweep your sidewalks clean down to the pavement. This isn't an upsell; it's our standard for delivering a truly safe and professional result.
Here's the commercial advantage of a thoroughly broomed sidewalk.
The thin, slick layer of snow left behind by a snow blower or shovel is the number one cause of refreezing and dangerous black ice. Brooming removes this layer entirely.
For your business, this means: A drastic reduction in the conditions that lead to slip-and-fall incidents, a major source of liability claims for commercial properties. A visibly safer surface gives your employees, customers, and tenants the confidence to navigate your property safely.
First impressions matter. A sidewalk cleared down to the bare pavement looks professional and well-maintained. It signals that you prioritize safety...
