Clearway Gritting teams manage winter gritting and salt spreading from our seven local depots

Our own teams manage winter gritting and salt spreading from seven local depots and we do not operate franchises or sub-contract out our gritting services. Our teams receive regular annual training so they understand how our winter gritting equipment works and can provide effective winter gritting maintenance to all our Luton clients.

Our winter gritting team in St Albans will keep your Luton business open in bad weather

We have 36 spreaders and over 80 snow ploughs that are on standby in bad weather to keep your Luton business working. Many of our clients contact us looking for car park gritting as they are concerned that their colleagues or customers will not be able to park in bad weather. We always offer a personalised gritting service appropriate to your business. We remind clients that it’s not just the company car park that needs gritting during the bad weather, but pathways, private roads and pavements. We will always remove snow first before applying salt and grit so your business is safe, and your colleagues can keep working.
