Emergency Snow Removal Services
Emergency snow removal services are performed using heavy equipment, including Bobcat loader machinery. Snow removal services are intended to improve access and mobility only and do not guarantee bare pavement, ice-free conditions, or complete snow removal.
A $250.00 mobilization fee applies once equipment is dispatched and is non-refundable after dispatch. Hourly service charges begin upon arrival at the site and continue until the equipment leaves the property.
Snow and ice conditions may conceal curbs, drainage structures, utility covers, landscaping, pavement defects, concrete edges, asphalt seams, or other fixed or hidden objects. The Customer acknowledges these risks and accepts full responsibility for site conditions.
The Customer authorizes CDM and Associates Worldwide LLC, its assigns, and subcontractors to perform snow removal services and agrees to hold harmless and indemnify CDM and Associates Worldwide LLC from any and all claims resulting from snow removal operations.
Service timing is dependent on weather conditions, access, and equipment availability. Specific service times are not guaranteed during emergency snow events. Standby time, delays, or inability to perform service due to blocked access, parked vehicles, obstructions, or unsafe conditions remain billable.
Emergency Snow Service Refund Policy
Emergency snow removal services are non-refundable once equipment has been dispatched or mobilization has occurred, regardless of weather conditions. Weather changes, melting, refreezing, or partial site improvement do not qualify for refunds or credits.
