If you’re searching for parking lot sweeping in MN, Durst Outdoor Services offers expert pavement sweeping, surface cleaning, and debris removal throughout Rochester and Southeastern Minnesota. Whether it’s for a commercial parking lot, city street, or active construction site, our sweeping services help keep your property safe, attractive, and fully compliant with Minnesota environmental regulations.
Why Regular Parking Lot Sweeping Matters
Over time, debris, oil, salt, and trash build up on paved surfaces—especially after long Minnesota winters. Left unchecked, this debris can:
- Damage vehicles and pedestrian areas
- Break down asphalt and concrete surfaces
- Diminish your property’s visual appeal
- Increase maintenance costs in the long run
Durst Outdoor Services helps extend the life of your pavement with regular sweeping. For construction sites, staying compliant with MPCA SWPPP regulations means sediment must be removed from paved surfaces within one calendar day of discovery. A regular sweeping schedule makes compliance easy and protects local waterways from pollution.
We also recommend sweeping prior to sealcoating, crack filling, or striping to ensure a smooth, clean surface for best results.
