A written snow plan protects your tenants, your customers and your insurance record. Before signing a winter contract, make sure your snow removal contractor covers the essentials.
The checklist
- Clear trigger depths for plowing and salting
- Guaranteed completion times before opening hours
- A snow-stacking plan that keeps drains and fire lanes clear
- Time-stamped service logs and photos for every visit
- Proof of public liability insurance
- A named contact for storm updates
Review it every autumn
Walk the site with your contractor before November, mark hazards and update the plan for any new parking layouts or entrances.
