You don't have to have any special trucks. Just about every city has a fleet of dump trucks for construction and road work. Most cities just slap a plow on them and then throw spreaders on the dump to throw salt. Pretty much nothing to it. In the case of Atlanta they don't even need plows just need to keep a pile of salt around and load up the trucks and throw it the night before, something like this is coming.
It is comically stupid that 2 inches of snow with some ice could turn an entire state / region into a post apocalyptic wasteland for 3 days. Its a daily occurrence up here.
