I'm looking for recommendations for residential snow removal in Sherwood Park.

Thanks

Teenager with a shovel ? Oh wait, they don't do that anymore.

Actually my sons good friend works for the company I mentioned. He’s 16 and gets up at 3 am to clear snow before school. He’s a great kid who likes fishing and hunting too.

Kids used to knock at our door after the snowfall and were willing to shovel for $5-$6. Now they are asking $20... is that the world got more expensive or I got cheap?

Bin living in the same place for 8. Years, residential, not one kid has ever asked to shovel snow. Neighbour has a 14 and 13 year old sons and the mother shovels the snow and takes the garbage out

That’s why I bought a snowblower two years ago. Now I don’t have to wait or ask anybody. Bets money I ever spent, lol!

My neighbors son does my front side walk early in the mornings, I have to do the driveway. Sometimes I do theirs with the snow blower. I give him a $100 BP gift card in January.

For all you guts/gals that do your side walks head out and treat
yourself to a 721E TORO snow thrower about $800.00 no bigger than a lawnmower. They are awesome HomeDepot had them last year
I do commercial snow removal all my crews have one
