Plowing our way into 2021, we’ve already captured the attention of multiple news outlets, and even another state! With 20 inches of snow on the horizon, Ken, Brent, and Michael were called in to Lincoln, Nebraska to help out with a huge amount of snow over there. While they were on their way home, St. Louis had its own blanket of snow fall, and Swinter’s handy work was featured on channels 2 and 4. Todd Capstick, a Swinter Area Manager, wonderfully captured the excitement of our hard-working crews and showcased our plowing and salting on a lot he had cleared earlier in the day. With all of our crews home safe, our Brrrr-lliant team can’t wait for more snow!

This years annual Swinter Picnic consisted of a pig roast, live fiddle music, family friendly fun, and to top it off, individual awards to observe all the hard work that was put into the 2018-2019 snow season. From MVP to Last Man Standing-- we’ve got an award for everything. We are already looking forward to next year. Perhaps we will see you there!          Here at Swinter, we are constantly working to better ourselves and the company. Along with the upgrades to the building and a few big improvements still to be unveiled, we've added a couple fresh faces to our office team!
Brent is our Account Manager. He handles all of our new snow removal services. If you are looking for a bid on a property or portfolio, he will be your point of contact. You can reach him by email at brentr@swintergroup.com or click here for other contact info. Elizabeth is our Office Administrator. If you call or come by the office, she'll be the one to greet you!

If you haven't been here since last winter season, you'll be in for a surprise! We recently updated our office to make it a little more modern and hopefully a lot more comfortable!
