What affects snow removal pricing
Several factors drive price variation in Toronto:
- Property size: Larger driveways and longer walkways take more time and cost more.
- Storm severity: Heavy accumulation means more passes and higher prices.
- Timing: ASAP jobs often cost more than pre-scheduled ones.
- Provider tier: Community providers are often cheaper. Pro Verified providers cost more but have insurance and credentials on file.
