Local, reliable winter clearing for Franklin driveways, shared alleys and commercial lots — since 2014.
Snow removal in Franklin has to work for two very different customers on the same night: the homeowner on a side street off Second Street, and the distribution facility near the interstate that runs trucks around the clock. 5 Points Lawn Service & Snow Removal has provided professional snow removal and plowing in Franklin since 2014, and our winter routes here are built with both in mind.
Franklin sits along the Great Miami River, split by the water and stitched together by bridges. River fog is a real factor in this town. Moisture off the water settles on pavement overnight, freezes into a thin glaze under fresh snow, and creates exactly the kind of surface that puts a delivery driver on the ground in a warehouse lot.

The industrial corridor along Dixie Highway and out toward the I-75 interchange changes how we schedule. A retail lot can be cleared before 7 a.m. and be fine. A freight facility cannot close, which means we plow around active traffic, one section at a time, with the crew coordinating with the dock supervisor.
On the residential side, Franklin has a lot of older housing with detached garages reached by shared or narrow drives. Two neighbors, one alley. We clear the whole run and sort out the billing so nobody is stuck behind a plowed ridge because the other party did not sign up.
The glaze issue is why we push de-icing hard here. Clearing the snow off frozen pavement without treating it produces a lot that looks clean and behaves like an ice rink.
Our parking lot snow removal handles sectional clearing around active traffic, dock aprons kept open, and drive aisles maintained through the full storm rather than in one pass. For year-round upkeep of those same lots, many owners add our commercial property maintenance.
Driveways, alley runs, walks, and steps, with attention to the narrow lots common in the older parts of Franklin.
Pretreatment ahead of the storm and reapplication after clearing, aimed at the refreeze that comes off the Great Miami overnight.
Storm-duration coverage for facilities that never actually close, including holiday and weekend response.
Consistency is the entire value. Franklin property managers who have cycled through three vendors in five years tend to stay with us, because the crew that plowed the lot last February is the crew plowing it this year and they already know where the dock drains are.
Here is a firsthand observation from our Franklin work. Lots near the river almost always have a low corner that the original grading never solved. If you stack snow there, the melt has nowhere to go, it refreezes, and you have a permanent hazard until March. We stage piles uphill even when it means a longer push.
Our crews are insured, our commercial snow removal agreements spell out trigger depths and response times in writing, and estimates are free. Snow is only part of what we do — the same local crew also handles lawn care and installation, landscape design and installation, mulch and brush hogging, and Bobcat grading and site prep once the ground thaws, so you can see the full range of our services and rely on one team all year.
