We keep your business safe, open, and accessible with prompt winter clearing and reliable communication.
When snow and ice hit, your property still has to open on time, stay safe, and stay easy to access. At Dakota Turf, we provide commercial snow removal for businesses across the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro with a focus on fast response, clear communication, and dependable service. We work with property managers, retail centers, office buildings, warehouses, factories, industrial sites, apartment buildings, and HOAs that need a snow partner they can count on all winter long.
We know what is at stake during a Minnesota winter. Slippery walks, blocked entrances, icy loading zones, and crowded parking lots can create safety risks for tenants, employees, customers, and vendors. Our job is to help reduce those risks and keep your site operating with as little disruption as possible. With 30 years of combined team experience and a full crew of 20 field professionals, we are built to handle demanding winter conditions with the same professional care we bring to landscaping, hardscapes, and drainage services.
Our service is designed to keep your property safe, accessible, and presentable throughout the season. Scope of work can be tailored to your site, traffic patterns, and business hours.
Parking lot snow plowing for retail centers, office lots, industrial properties, apartment communities, and other commercial sites
Drive lane and access route clearing to help incoming and outgoing traffic move safely
Sidewalk and walkway clearing around entrances, storefronts, offices, and common areas
Entryway and high-traffic area attention where slip hazards are most common
Snow relocation and pile management to keep sight lines, parking stalls, and access points open
Ice management support to address slick conditions and improve walking and driving safety
Service plans based on your property layout and operational needs
Every site is different. A strip mall has different snow priorities than a warehouse, office complex, or HOA. That is why we take the time to understand how your property functions before the season gets busy. We look at traffic flow, entrances, loading areas, pedestrian routes, parking needs, and problem spots so we can provide service that makes sense for your location.
Commercial snow removal is one of the most important property maintenance services for Minnesota businesses, and we work with a wide range of commercial clients. We regularly serve:
Retail centers and strip malls
Office buildings and business parks
Warehouses and distribution facilities
Factories and industrial properties
Apartment buildings and multi-family communities
Homeowners associations
Other commercial and mixed-use properties
If you manage a property where winter weather affects safety, access, or daily operations, we can build a service plan around your needs.
Snow removal is about more than pushing snow from one place to another. It takes planning, consistency, and responsive service. Our customers often tell us they value how quickly we respond and how clearly we communicate. That matters in winter, especially when conditions change fast and you need to know your contractor is paying attention.
As a full-service property maintenance company based in Farmington, Dakota Turf has grown from a two-person operation into a trusted team of professionals serving the Twin Cities metro. We are insured, experienced, and committed to building long-term relationships rather than one-time transactions. Our mission is simple: provide quality work and strong customer service so our clients feel supported all season.
Experienced team: 30 years of combined hands-on experience
Strong staffing: 20 team members to support commercial property needs
Clear communication: prompt responses and reliable updates
Local knowledge: based in Farmington and serving the surrounding metro area
Full-service mindset: a trusted partner for year-round exterior property care
We believe the best commercial snow service starts before the first major storm. Planning helps avoid delays and confusion when snow starts falling. We work with clients to understand key areas on site, service expectations, access concerns, and timing. That preparation helps us perform more efficiently when winter weather arrives.
During the season, our goal is to keep your property functional and safer for the people who use it every day. That includes attention to vehicle areas, sidewalks, entrances, and other high-use spaces. We understand that many commercial sites need to stay open early, remain accessible throughout the day, or stay safe for overnight operations. We take those operational needs seriously and tailor our work to support them.
Hiring a professional snow and ice management company helps protect your property, your visitors, and your reputation. Reliable service can also reduce stress for property managers and facility teams during winter storms.

Before and during each winter event, we track local weather closely and stage crews and equipment for fast deployment across the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro. We stay in contact with property managers, respond promptly, and dispatch based on your site plan to reduce delays and keep your business accessible.
Our team plows, shovels, and applies salt or de-icer to clear snow safely and efficiently from key access points and traffic areas. After service, we complete a final walkthrough to confirm clean edges, safe entrances, and reliable site conditions so your staff, tenants, and visitors can move with confidence.
