Snow removal has some very unique pricing models and one of them is the seasonal pricing method. This method of snow removal consists of a partner determining the price for the entire year before it even snows. This take a lot of research and planning. If your price is too low, you will lose a lot of money, if your price is too high you risk losing the contract. Basing your price off of 10 and 100 year forecasts allows you to determine how much snow may fall. Ensuring you have calculated enough time for deicing and plowing can be tricky. In some years you may be very profitable, in other you may lose money. The benefit for the retailer and the contractor is they both know exactly what the budget is for the year!
Seasonal pricing is the most effective snow pricing model for business locations which experience heavy snow fall. A seasonal price is a dollar amount paid out evenly over a 5 or 6 month period. The dollar amount paid is paid out no matter how much snow falls or how little snow falls. This is great for budgeting your annual snow fall expenses. It also ensures you will not blow your snow budget too early in the season!
