Snow & Ice
Management
24/7 commercial snow plowing, salting, and ice control for parking lots, driveways, and walkways — keeping your property safe and accessible all winter across Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge & Guelph.
Your property stays open. Your liability stays managed.
In Ontario, a slip-and-fall on an uncleared walkway is on you. Commercial property owners and managers need a snow contractor they can rely on — not one who shows up whenever it's convenient. At Arcadia, we monitor weather around the clock and dispatch before your tenants or customers arrive.
We run seasonal contracts for parking lots, driveways, and walkways with detailed monthly logs documenting every visit, timestamp, and service performed. You have a record. We have accountability. That's how it should work.

Full Winter Maintenance Coverage
Every service in our snow program is designed to keep your property safe, accessible, and compliant — from the first snowfall through the spring thaw.
Snow Plowing
Parking lots, driveways, and access roads cleared efficiently with truck-mounted plows. We push and stack snow away from traffic paths, fire lanes, and building access points. Triggered by accumulation thresholds set in your contract — no waiting for your call.
Salting & De-Icing
Bulk rock salt and liquid de-icer applications for parking surfaces, driveways, and building entries. We apply at the right rate — enough to prevent bonding and ice formation without over-salting, which damages pavement and landscaping over time.
Sidewalk & Walkway Clearing
Hand-shoveled or power-cleared sidewalks, building entrances, and pedestrian paths. We include salt application as part of walkway service. Cleared and sanded before business hours open — keeping your liability exposure and your tenants' frustration both at zero.
Parking Lot Maintenance
Full lot management including lane clearing, stall clearing, curb line pushback, and fire hydrant access. We track accumulation between visits and return as needed throughout a storm event without waiting to be called — your contract defines the trigger threshold.
Snow Relocation & Lot Clear-Outs
When snow piles consume parking stalls mid-season, we relocate or haul away accumulated snow to restore full lot capacity. Scheduled on demand or as part of your seasonal contract — ideal for commercial properties with high turnover or limited storage space on-site.
Monthly Logs & Reporting
Every site visit is timestamped and logged — date, time, services performed, and conditions on arrival. Monthly reports are provided for your records. For property managers handling multiple sites or owner-operators who need documentation for insurance purposes, this is essential.
Properties We Keep Clear
Commercial lots, driveways, and walkways across the KW region — maintained through Ontario's full winter season.
We show up. Every storm. On time.
The biggest failure in snow removal isn't doing it wrong — it's not doing it at all. Contractors who overbook, go dark during back-to-back storms, or don't show up until 10am. That's not us. We structure our client load so we can actually service everyone in our contracts.
Get a Winter ContractProactive Dispatch
We don't wait for you to call. Our team monitors weather and dispatches to your site automatically when the threshold in your contract is hit.
Liability Documentation
Monthly logs with timestamps, service descriptions, and weather conditions. Your paper trail if a slip-and-fall claim ever surfaces.
Seasonal Contracts
Lock in before the season. Seasonal contracts guarantee your spot in our schedule — we don't take on new clients mid-winter at the expense of existing ones.
Commercial-Grade Equipment
Truck plows, skid steers, and spreaders — the right equipment for lots of any size, not just residential driveways scaled up.
Direct Owner Contact
You have a direct line to an owner of the company — not a dispatcher or a call centre. If there's an issue, it gets resolved immediately.
Fully Insured
We carry full commercial general liability coverage. Any reputable snow contractor should — if yours doesn't, that's your problem when something goes wrong.
