Quirk Auto Group Boss Plow at Quirk

Ice Control

Plowing is half the battle. Black ice on a school parking lot or a hospital entrance can shut things down just as fast as a foot of snow. Boss spreaders put down material exactly where you need it — from 40-foot swaths on highway ramps to precise sidewalk paths.

Ice Control FAQ

How does a salt spreader work?

A hopper or tailgate spreader feeds material — by auger or chain — onto a spinning disc that throws it across the road or lot, with controls to set how much goes down. A drop spreader lets material fall straight down in a set path instead of throwing it.

Hopper, tailgate or drop spreader — which do I need?

A VBX+ hopper spreader carries the most material for commercial routes. A TGS tailgate spreader hangs on a receiver hitch and keeps your bed free for smaller jobs. For sidewalks and walkways, a drop spreader or walk-behind puts material exactly where you want it.

Which spreader keeps salt off lawns and plantings?

A drop spreader like the Exact Path lays a controlled path about 40" wide without throwing material to the sides — the best choice around landscaping and building entrances.
