Visability At Property Entrance

Your business entrance is the most important area to keep clear, wide and free of visibility issues. Banks of snow should not be piled at the entrance of the property as it makes it very difficult for cars to enter or exit your lot.


Banks of snow at a entrance should be limited to 2 to 3 feet high as not obstruct the view of cars exiting your lot and entering the flow of traffic on the street. Its not only dangerous and annoying for your customers leaving your property and will surely be a  bone of contention if someone gets sideswiped when leaving your lot.


A professional contractor who takes pride in their work and has the property owners interest in mind will not stack snow at the entrances and find other suitable locations based on communication with the property manager.


 Its also important to make sure snow banks are not piled at your entrance but even worse the banks should not flow out onto the street. I was surprised to see that this bank stayed like this all last winter on a busy street. This is an accident waiting to happen and will have potential for legal implications if there was a serious accident as a result.

I hope that this post will help property managers identify some common issues regarding snow clearing in Toronto. Hiring a professional snow contractor will alleviate any of these problems.
