How long does a snow removal contract last?
Most commercial snow contracts cover one winter season, with start and end dates written into the contract. Service outside those dates is usually billed per event.
Check what the dates are and what happens to a storm that lands just outside them. A late March storm is common enough in northern New Jersey that the end date matters.
JRW's standard season runs October 1 to April 30, so an early storm or a late spring one is still covered.
