The next storm is coming, and meteorologists say it will be wetter

The snowstorm resulted in much of the state receiving over a foot of snow, with some communities recording snow totals up to 18 inches.

While the snowy season is now in full swing, many residents are still in need of a quick and reliable snow removal service to help dig themselves out.

In order to make sure our readers are prepared for when the flakes start falling, we asked if any of you offer snow shoveling, snow blowing or snow plowing services.

Each provider on this list is available all winter and we’ll be updating the guide with new names as we receive them.
