Flexible Contracting to Fit Your Goals
Every portfolio has unique operational and financial goals, and your snow and ice contract should support them. Lessen’s flexible models allow you to choose what works best for your properties, budget, and risk tolerance.
Per Service
Pay per event, with full transparency.
Per service contracts provide flexibility by billing only when services are performed, based on a pre-agreed rate. This structure is especially effective for regions with variable snowfall, helping you avoid overpaying in lighter snow seasons.
Key Benefits
- Cost-effective in low- or moderate-snow regions
- Invoiced only when plowing, salting, or clearing is performed
- Full visibility into service frequency and spend
How one retailer used it: A national retailer managing hundreds of locations across the U.S. leveraged a per service model to align costs with demand across diverse regions. With real-time tracking and invoice transparency through One by Lessen™, they reduced storm escalations and improved documentation and service consistency.
Seasonal
Predictable pricing, simplified operations, full-season peace of mind.
Seasonal contracts offer an all-inclusive price for the entire snow season, regardless of how many events occur. This model helps reduce budget fluctuations and is often preferred for properties with steady service needs or risk mitigation concerns.
Key Benefits
- Consistent monthly or seasonal billing
- Simplifies cost expectations for financial forecasting and long-term planning
- Reduced administrative overhead – fewer invoices to manage
How one bank made it work: A leading bank partnered with Lessen on a seasonal program for over 500 sites, ensuring readiness through a single bundled agreement. Despite high snowfall in several markets, the bank maintained efficient service delivery and clear operational oversight while reducing the workload on facility managers through centralized coordination in One by Lessen™.
