Snow routes ready before the first flake

Each property from its own depth, priority customers first, and nothing to pay for in July.

Sound familiar?

01

The 3 AM phone tree

It starts snowing and someone has to work out who goes where, at night, from memory and a spreadsheet.

02

The clinic waits behind a driveway

The places that open first get done whenever the truck happens to get there.

03

Paying for trucks all summer

Most route software bills every route every month, whether it snowed or not.

Optimized at every step

Most route tools optimize once. Axiom Routing keeps your snow and ice routes tight as you grow, and every single storm.

  1. 1 / 3

    When we build your routes

    Storm routes built once, one per truck, every property on it, planned for a long storm day and to each truck's hours.

  2. 2 / 3

    Every time you add a customer

    A new lot or driveway is placed on the truck that passes closest, so the routes stay tight as you sign customers.

  3. 3 / 3

    Every storm, for who it reaches

    Each storm, only the properties the snowfall reaches go out, highest priority first, then the shortest way through the rest.

Run a storm

Enter how much fell. Every truck knows where to go.

Press Run snow routes, enter the inches, and every driver's app has their properties in order: clinics and businesses first, driveways after. Still snowing? Run a second pass.

  • Each property from its own depth: lots at 1", driveways at 2"
  • High, Normal and Low priority
  • Second and third passes the same day

Snow alerts

Know the night before

When the National Weather Service forecast reaches your lowest trigger, the dashboard says so and the office gets an evening email. A person always decides when to roll.

  • Snowfall from the free National Weather Service forecast (US)
  • Compared to your customers' own trigger depths
  • Evening email you can turn off

When every truck finishes a pass, the office gets who was done and when, and who was missed and why, by account number.

  • One report per pass
  • Missed properties with the driver's reason
  • Off season: routes idle and $0 until you start the season

Questions

Do we pay for snow routes in summer?

No. Snow routes are built once and sit idle off season: off the calendar and off your bill until you start the season.

Do the routes start by themselves when it snows?

No. You get a heads-up when the forecast reaches your customers' triggers, and the office presses Run snow routes when it's time, entering how much fell.

Can a lawn company use the same account for snow?

Yes. Mowing and snow are separate products with their own seasons and routes, in one account.

What about a second push during a long storm?

Run the routes again the same day. The new pass picks up everyone the new depth reaches, still highest priority first.
