Snow Shoveling
Snow Shovel Calgary and Edmonton
Winter is upon us! When your sidewalks and pathways get covered in snow and ice, and it needs to be cleared fast.
The thing is, shovelling snow can be a pain in the neck – literally. With the large snow falls and packed snowdrifts we get here in Alberta, long hours of shovelling snow can take a real physical toll on your body.
It’s only a little better if you use a snowblower, which can be hard to push and prone to mechanical problems. If snow shovelling doesn’t sound appealing to you, it’s time to call in the snow removal experts at Yardworx.
We’ll clear your sidewalks, pathways, and driveways for you – and you can stay inside with a mug of hot chocolate and enjoy the wintery views.

Why Snow Shovelling Is Important
If you don’t shovel your sidewalks, you’ll be fined.
Besides, shovelling your sidewalks makes your property safer – for both you and your neighbours. That’s especially true if you have any senior citizens in your household or neighbourhood. If someone slips or falls on your property or sidewalk, you will be liable.
If you live in Calgary, it is important to note that:
- You need to remove snow and ice – down to the bare surface – from public sidewalks bordering your private property within 24 hours of a snowfall ending. Owners of rental properties are responsible for arranging for snow and ice removal when they reside elsewhere.
- You need to remove a minimum width of 1.5 meters of snow and ice – down to the bare surface – from a public pathway bordering your property, also within 24 hours of a snowfall ending. Applicable pathways are those that run parallel and adjacent to a street, with or without separation between the pathway and street (e.g. a grass boulevard).
- You need to pile snow from your private driveway or walkway on your own property (e.g. front lawn). Snow from a public sidewalk or pathway may be shovelled onto another public property, such as a road.
