Strata Snow Removal & Salting Services

Why Strata Properties Need More Than Just Plowing

Let’s be honest, strata properties are complex. They’re not like commercial lots or private homes. They have dozens (sometimes hundreds!) of residents, multiple access points, tight spaces, and lots of foot traffic.

Have you ever thought about how many areas on your property actually need attention during a snowfall?

Strata properties are complex. You’re responsible for:

• Walkways
• Stairs
• Parkade ramps
• Visitor parking
• Drive aisles
• Waste collection areas
• Fire lanes
• Common gathering spaces

Miss even one area… and you’ve got a major liability on your hands.

Have you ever asked yourself, “Do we really have a plan for all of this?”

If not, now’s the time.

Get a Snow Removal Plan Built Just for Stratas

At Burnaby Blacktop Ltd., when we design strata snow removal contracts, we never take a “one-size-fits-all” approach. Every complex is different. Some are sprawling townhouse communities. Others are high-rise towers with steep underground parkade ramps. And some stratas have a mix of both.

So we always begin with one question:

“What would make winter easier for your residents?”

From there, we build a plan that covers:

• Property maintenance snow plowing for drive lanes, common roads, and parking areas
• Property management snow removal for shared spaces, entrances, and emergency routes
• Salting and ice control for walkways, stairs, and ramps
• Hand shovelling where machines can’t reach
• Snow hauling when piles get too big
• 24/7 monitoring & response during storms

Have you ever thought about how much stress you’d avoid if your snow removal team simply handled everything automatically?

That’s our goal: predictable service, consistent timing, and zero last-minute scrambling.

Seasonal Contracts vs. Per-Event Service. What Works Best?

Let’s talk about cost for a moment. Every year, property managers ask us: “Should we do a seasonal contract or just pay per event?”

Here’s a simple way to think about it:

Seasonal contracts are ideal for predictable budgeting, guaranteed service, and priority response. Per-event pricing can work for small properties, but during heavy snowfall years, costs can spike quickly and availability can shrink.

What would give your strata the most peace of mind? For most councils, the answer is simple: a seasonal contract.

And honestly? If you are a property manager, responsible for multiple or even one strata, that’s what we recommend too.
