Plowing is the quickest way to move a lot of snow from a large surface. We use plowing for driveways and lots where there is room to work safely, and finish edges, corners and entrances by hand or snow blower. That way you get the speed of a plow without leaving the awkward spots undone.
Where plowing works best
- Double, long and suburban driveways
- Commercial and multi-unit parking lots
- Private lanes and shared access roads
- Loading areas and yards
For narrow peninsula driveways or tight spaces between houses, a plow may not be the right tool. In those cases we use shovelling and snow blowing instead, so we don’t damage fences, cars or landscaping.
What to expect from our plowing service
- An agreed trigger depth so you know when we come out
- Snow piled where agreed, away from sightlines, drains and doorways
- Edges and entrances tidied after plowing
- Repeat passes during long storms on seasonal routes, as agreed in your contract
- Optional salting or sanding after plowing
Plowing and the municipal windrow
Even after a driveway is plowed, the next pass of a street plow can push a new bank across the end. If you need that cleared too, ask about windrow follow-up when you request your quote. It is one of the most common requests in Halifax.
