Seekonk is just over the line from East Providence, with a parking ban for every storm and a $150 fine for pushing snow into the road. One local crew plows driveways and lots and clears walks in Seekonk, keeping snow on your property, not the street.

Seekonk is mostly single-family homes on suburban lots off Route 114A, Route 6 and Taunton Avenue, with longer drives and some farm properties toward the north and east, plus a busy retail strip along Route 6.
Seekonk's ban applies to every winter storm, side streets wait until main roads are done, and the town won't fix mailboxes knocked down by plowed snow. Snow pushed back into the road is a $150 fine.
