Our pricing depends on several factors:

• Square Footage: The size of the area to be cleared.
• Priority Window: The timeframe you select for service — priority, next day, or availability-based.
• Conditions:
• Snow Amount: For example, 1–3 inches or 4–6 inches.
• Snow Type: Fresh snow or compacted from foot or vehicle traffic.
• Ice Accumulation: Rain that has frozen or snow with an underlying layer of ice.

These factors determine how long the job will take and how many team members are needed. To save on future orders, visit shovelsquad.ca/premium for more information.

No, Shovel Squad focuses on privately owned areas. City-owned areas, such as street parking and alleys, are typically managed by local government.

Shovel Squad is not liable for slip-and-fall accidents or injuries that occur after our services are completed. While we take every effort to de-ice and clear the area thoroughly, slippery conditions may still exist. It is the client’s responsibility to ensure ongoing safety. For more information, please review our Terms of Service.

The time depends on the property size and snow conditions. Significant snow or ice accumulation takes longer to clear than a small amount of fresh snow. Our team works efficiently to provide timely service.

We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express. 

Yes, we shovel around parked cars, leaving about three feet of clearance. However, we are not responsible for any damage to vehicles. We recommend moving cars if possible.

No, we do not offer partial clearing of driveways or small pathways, as this may lead to snow falling back into cleared areas or confusion for our team. Exceptions might be made for permanently parked objects, such as boats or RVs.

While we strive to meet your schedule, we cannot guarantee service by a specific time due to unpredictable conditions. A proof of action letter is provided with your paid order for record-keeping.

If you place an order before snowfall begins, it will be treated as a preliminary quote and canceled. You will not have the option to pay in advance.

Ordering promptly helps prevent ice buildup caused by rain or melting/freezing cycles, which can increase snow clearing costs due to additional labor and de-icing products required. Acting quickly ensures a more efficient and cost-effective service.
