Snow removal in Gatineau, QC
Get your Gatineau driveway and sidewalk shoveled
Gatineau stretches from the older, dense streets of Hull to suburban sectors like Aylmer, Le Plateau and Buckingham, where homes have long driveways that fill in after every storm. The City clears many sidewalks, but not every one, so homeowners still face driveways, walkways, steps, cars and the plow windrow at the curb.
