Bagged rock salt, ice melt blends, magnesium and calcium chloride, and pet-safe melt for walks, steps and entrances.
Bulk salt is for lots. Walks and doorways need something you can carry. Most crews and property managers keep a few pallets on hand for hand spreaders and walk-behinds.
Most products come in 50 lb bags, usually 49 bags to a pallet (counts vary by product). Pallets can ride along with a bulk delivery.
The low-cost choice for walks when it's not too cold.
Salt blended with faster, colder-working chlorides. A good all-around walk product.
