Keeping Salt Available For Tenants

I've done it, I haven't done it, I've done it...

Do you keep salt by the door for tenants to use? I've kept a 5 gallon bucket by the door now and then, but usually it gets over used, and that crap gets tracked into the building.

I have a service for removing snow and plowing, but I'm talking about the occasional light snowfall or freezing rain when the service isn't needed, and a couple minutes of my time to throw some salt is all that's needed.

I bring this up because of a text I received today about ice at the entrance of one of my 4plexes. I drove over and took care of it.

I think I might do it this year.

Do you keep a bucket of salt at the entrance of your multi?

Fill the bucket only 1/3 full and it won't get wasted as fast. ;-)
