Why Snow Subcontractors Choose Level Green: A Partnership Built On Trust and Support

Brad Wolin has been a snow removal subcontractor with Level Green Landscaping for more than 20 years. That’s a lot of plowed snow. 

“I’ve been working with them since it was just owners Bill and Doug, a crew of two and one truck,” said Wolin, owner of Image Motorsports in Upper Marlboro, MD.  

As Level Green steadily grew over the years, amassing a fleet of vehicles and close to 400 team members, Wolin has returned every year with his plows and skid steers for this valued snow removal partnership. 

What keeps him coming back? A few key things, he says: 

• A family feel. “It’s kind of corporate now because they’ve grown so much, but it’s still a mom and pop kind of feel,” Wolin says. “They know your name. Everybody we deal with there is great.”
• Attention to detail.  “If there’s any kind of glitch, they fix it immediately,” Wolin says. Snow subcontractors have an account manager available who offers support and makes sure everything is going smoothly.
• Continuity. “We’ve had the same sites for years,” he says. He likes the familiarity. 

“We’ve done the same shopping center for 15 years,” Wolin says. He laughs. “I can tell you where every manhole cover is, and which ones will send you to the dentist if you hit them.”

• Independence. “They don’t babysit us,” Wolin says. “They let us do our job.”
• Prompt payment. “The pay is always before 30 days,” he says. “They ask if we want to pick up the check or have it mailed.”
• Pre-season planning. “They bring us in for a yearly pep talk,” Wolin says, “and to update us on any changes.”

A pre-season training session covers everything that snow subcontractors need to know, including exactly how to invoice in order to get paid quickly.

“We know exactly what to expect,” Wolin says. “And we know what they expect.”

• Respect for Level Green. “Over the years owners Bill and Doug have figured out what works and what doesn’t,” Wolin says. “They go to conferences to get new ideas. They’ve grown, but they still treat you like family.
  
  “We get solicited every year by other landscaping companies who want us to work with them,” Wolin says. “But there’s no reason we’d drop Level Green. They’ve always been good to us.”

Why Work With Level Green?

We make snow removal partnerships easy: 

• You’ll get a detailed site map that shows exactly where to push the snow.
• We’ll meet with you on site at the properties you’ll handle before snow season starts to walk the property and go over all the important snow management details.
• Our detailed pre-season planning means we won’t give you more work than you and your equipment can handle. Precise formulas help us determine exactly how long it will take to complete each commercial snow removal job, exactly what equipment is needed, and how many crew members should be on board.
• We follow the Golden Rule — we treat you the way we want to be treated. That includes paying you within 30 days. We know you have expenses.
