Insurance for snow removal contractors
From Whitehorse to St. John’s, citizens across Canada rely heavily on snow removal contractors to transform sudden blizzards and ice storms into safe living conditions. While demand for your services increases, so will the risk of a lawsuit due to the high-risk nature of your business.
As a snow removal contractor, managing risk is inherent to your business, so it only makes sense that you have an airtight risk management strategy in place for yours. At Zensurance, we’ve helped thousands of contractors protect their businesses from costly claims with flexible insurance policies customized to meet their specific needs.
Common claims scenarios
Problem: While clearing residential streets you accidentally plow over someone’s lawn, causing significant damage to their property.
Outcome: Your Commercial General Liability policy could cover the cost to repair the lawn.
Problem: During a bad storm, you ask one of your employees to attach a plow to their truck. On their way to the following job site, they skid on black ice and get into an accident.
Outcome: Your employee is found to be at fault for the accident. Your Commercial General Liability policy may cover auto repairs for both vehicles under the non-owned automobile coverage.
Problem: Several of your walk-behind spreaders are stolen from your truck while parked at a job site. You have a large project with a commercial client starting later in the day, making it necessary to rent tools until yours are replaced.
Outcome: Your Tools and Equipment Insurance may cover the costs of replacing the stolen equipment and reimburse you for the rental expenses.
