Snow removal in Edmonton, AB
Book local snow removal in Edmonton
In Edmonton most residential sidewalks are left to the people who live beside them, and the City expects them cleared down to the pavement. Cold snaps keep snow around all winter, so a sidewalk that is not cleared early gets packed into ice by foot traffic and can stay that way for weeks. Corner lots and homes with garages off a back alley have more ground to cover.
