DISCOVER AUTOMATIC SALT ROUTES
Imagine this...
You wake up after a typical Lower Mainland winter night. It rained, then it froze and now everything outside is a skating rink, classic. Front steps, walkways, and sidewalks shimmer with invisible, treacherous ice.
But not at your place. Your home is ice-free and safe for anyone to walk on — and you didn’t spend a single second out in the freezing cold laying down salt…
How is that possible? While you were staying cozy inside, Shovel Squad was monitoring the weather and noticed it dropped below 0°! They drove over to your place and quietly took care of the ice, ensuring safe pathways for anyone who happens to walk on your property.
It might sound like a dream, but it’s real! It starts with gathering a few neighbours to start a salting route of your own.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I legally need to clear my city sidewalks?
Most Metro Vancouver municipalities require sidewalks to be cleared of snow and ice within 24 hours of a snowfall. We strive to ensure your property is serviced within your requested time frame and provide a Proof of Action letter in your confirmation email which can be presented to bylaw officers as needed.
We recommend checking your local municipal website for specific bylaws and details.
