What the valley gauge says

The nearest snowfall gauge is the Minden station, 1.7 miles from Gardnerville at 4,709 feet, with a 1991-2020 normal of about 21.8 inches (NOAA). That is more than half again as much as Carson City's 14.0 inches. Valley storms are usually wet, and wet snow is heavy to move by hand.

Newer driveways, more of them

The census place has about 5,500 residents and 2,800 households, and only about 18% of homes predate 1980 (ACS 2020-2024; small-place figures, round them). Wide, flat driveways go quickly with a skid steer or plow. For sidewalks and steps we shovel by hand, then salt and treat ice.

Shops, offices and mixed-use lots

Downtown Gardnerville and the commercial strips need lots clear before opening. We cover corporate offices, retail stores, medical facilities and similar commercial properties with plows, pushers and loaders, and we haul snow away when a lot cannot hold the pile.

A note on sidewalks

Many Gardnerville properties have long sidewalk frontage, and the hand shoveling for it adds up fast. If you want us to clear the sidewalk and the drive on a regular schedule, say so when you call. We will agree on the scope up front, with the pieces that matter most listed first, so the estimate reflects the property you actually have.

Gardnerville is also a town of acreage and long frontage lots on its edges. If your drive is more than a car length from the road, tell us how long it is and whether it is gravel, since gravel needs a gentler blade setting. Gardnerville has older tree-lined streets near the center, where branches overhang drives and walks. If snow load has bent a limb over your drive, tell us when you call. Our tree crews can take it down safely, and the plow crew can then clear beneath it.
