The crew plows, hauls, shovels and salts. ZIP 89703 sits at about 4,809 feet, a little higher than central Carson City, and about half its homes were built before 1980. Older houses often mean older, narrower or steeper driveways, and that changes which machine does the job. ## At a glance - ZIP 89703, about 13 minutes from our yard - About 50% of homes built before 1980 - Hand shoveling where machines do not fit - Plowing, salting, hauling and ice removal ## Older streets, tighter driveways The Census Bureau puts the median home in ZIP 89703 at 1980 and finds about 50% of homes were built before that year (ACS 2020-2024, ZCTA 89703). Driveways laid out in the 1960s and 1970s were not designed around a full-size truck, and a plow blade that does well on an open lot can scrape a short drive or a planter. That is where hand shoveling and a skid steer earn their keep. We choose the smallest machine that does the job cleanly and finish edges by hand. ## How the numbers compare to the rest of Carson City There is no snow gauge inside this ZIP. The closest one, the Carson City station at 4,761 feet and 3.3 miles away, normals out near 14.0 inches of snow a year (NOAA 1991-2020), and ZIP 89703 sits about 50 feet higher than that gauge, so you should plan on the same order of snow, not on less. The gauge is a reference for planning, not a forecast. ## Homes and commercial lots About 10,700 people live in the ZIP across roughly 4,800 households, and about 72% of homes are owner-occupied. For homeowners we clear the drive, the walk to the door and the mailbox approach. For businesses and shared lots we plow, stack and haul, then salt and treat ice before opening time. ## How do I get set up before the first storm? Call [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) and tell the office the address, how long and steep the driveway is and whether cars park on it. A custom flat rate is available to ongoing customers, and the estimate is free. Our snow team is available 24 hours a day through the snow season. ## After the plow, the walkway The plow gets the car out, but the fall happens on the walkway. On older lots in ZIP 89703 the path from the driveway to the front door is often a different surface than the drive itself: concrete, pavers or old asphalt that heave and trap water. We clear to the surface and salt it, so melt does not refreeze on the one step everyone uses. If a tree limb has come down under the weight of the snow, our tree crews can handle that too, and a guide on heavy snow and broken limbs is linked below. ### Sources - [NOAA NCEI U.S. Climate Normals 1991-2020, Carson City station (USC00261485)](https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/products/land-based-station/us-climate-normals) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2020-2024 five-year estimates, ZCTA5 89703 (West Carson City)](https://data.census.gov/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - [OSRM routing on OpenStreetMap roads, free-flow drive time from 6301 US Highway 50 East, Carson City](https://project-osrm.org/) (retrieved October 1, 2026) - **Drive from our yard:** about 13 min 5.9 miles - **Elevation:** 4,809 ft USGS - **USDA hardiness zone:** 7b 2023 map - **Homes built before 1980:** 50% median year built 1980 Sources: drive time from our yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, free-flow, OSRM / Census Geocoder; elevation, USGS 3DEP; hardiness zone, USDA 2023 map; housing figures, U.S. Census Bureau ACS 2020-2024 five-year estimates; wildfire risk, USDA Forest Service Wildfire Risk to Communities (April 2026 data).
