Snow Removal Services Agreement

This Snow Removal Services Agreement (the "Agreement") is dated as of __________ (the "Effective Date"), by and between ______________________________ (the "Provider") and ______________________________ (the "Client") (collectively, the "Parties"). The Parties agree as follows:

This is a general-purpose template for a one-time, per-visit snow removal service in the United States. It is for business planning and discussion only and is not legal advice.

Core terms

1. SERVICES:

1.1 Provider will perform on-demand snow removal services for Client’s driveways and walkways (the "Services"). Service is scheduled after snowfall, based on Provider’s reasonable judgment about when conditions allow safe and effective work. 1.2 The Services are one-time, per-visit services and are not an ongoing maintenance plan unless the Parties sign a separate written schedule stating otherwise. 1.3 Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts to clear snow so that normal vehicles and foot traffic can use the cleared areas. Provider does not guarantee that surfaces will be completely free of snow, ice, or slippery conditions. 1.4 The Parties may attach a written Service Schedule describing the specific property address, surfaces to be cleared, any priority areas, and any special instructions. If there is a conflict between this Agreement and the Service Schedule, the Service Schedule will control for the description of the Services only. 1.5 Provider is not responsible for monitoring the weather or automatically dispatching crews unless the Parties clearly agree to such monitoring in a separate written schedule.

This clause describes what snow removal services are being provided, when they happen, and what level of result the Client can expect. It clarifies that the work is per visit, not an ongoing automatic service, unless a separate schedule says otherwise.

2. FEES & PAYMENT:

2.1 Client will pay Provider a fee of one hundred sixty dollars (US $160) per visit for the Services. 2.2 Payment is due after each visit. Provider may invoice Client after each visit, and Client will pay each invoice within ___ days of the invoice date. 2.3 The Parties may agree in writing on acceptable payment methods, such as electronic transfer, check, cash, or online payment service. 2.4 If Client does not pay any amount when due, Provider may pause further Services until payment is made and may charge a reasonable late fee or interest as agreed in writing between the Parties. 2.5 All fees are exclusive of any taxes that may apply. Client is responsible for any sales or similar transaction taxes related to the Services, if applicable.

This clause sets the price per visit, when payment is due, how it may be paid, and what can happen if payment is late or missed.

3. SCHEDULE & CANCELLATIONS:

3.1 Provider will schedule each visit after snowfall, taking into account weather conditions, safety, and staffing. Provider will use reasonable efforts to perform the Services within a reasonable time after snowfall but does not guarantee a specific arrival time unless agreed in writing. 3.2 Client must provide at least twenty-four (24) hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a scheduled visit. Client may give notice by phone, text, or email using the contact information given by Provider. 3.3 If Client cancels or reschedules a scheduled visit with less than twenty-four (24) hours’ notice, or if Provider arrives at the property and cannot perform the Services for reasons within Client’s control (for example, blocked access or locked gates), Client will owe the full visit fee of US $160. 3.4 If Provider must cancel or delay a visit because of equipment failure, unsafe conditions, severe weather, or other reasons outside Provider’s reasonable control, Provider will notify Client as soon as practical and will work with Client to reschedule the visit. 3.5 The Parties may use this Agreement, any Service Schedule, and related invoices or messages as written records if there is a dispute about cancellations or non-performance.

This clause explains how visits are scheduled after snowfall, the notice required to cancel or reschedule, when the full fee is still owed, and what happens if Provider must cancel or delay.

4. ACCESS, KEYS & SAFETY:

4.1 Client will make sure Provider has safe and reasonable access to the property, including driveways, walkways, and any gates, at the scheduled time. If access is blocked or unsafe for reasons within Client’s control, Provider may treat the visit as a late cancellation under Section 3.3. 4.2 If Provider needs keys, gate codes, or other access information, Client will provide them in advance and in writing. Provider will take reasonable care to keep this information secure and will only use it to provide the Services. 4.3 Provider may decide not to perform or to stop work if Provider believes conditions are unsafe, including but not limited to poor visibility, risk of property damage, or risk of injury. 4.4 Client will clearly mark or communicate the location of obstacles that may be hidden by snow, such as curbs, low walls, landscaping, extension cords, or loose materials. Provider is not responsible for damage to unmarked or hidden obstacles that are not reasonably visible under snow.

This clause explains the Client’s duty to provide safe access and any keys or codes needed, and gives Provider the right to stop work if conditions are unsafe.
Risk & exceptions

5. PETS & SPECIAL CONDITIONS:

5.1 If there are pets on the property, Client will make sure they are secured in a way that allows Provider to work safely and without interference. 5.2 Client will inform Provider in advance of any special conditions that may affect the Services, such as fragile surfaces, loose gravel, uneven pavers, or equipment installed in driveways or walkways. 5.3 Provider may refuse to work or may stop work if pets or special conditions create a safety risk or unreasonably interfere with the Services.

This clause covers basic expectations if pets or unusual site conditions are present, including securing pets and warning about fragile or unusual surfaces.

6. EXCLUSIONS:

6.1 Unless the Parties agree in writing, the Services do not include salting, sanding, or applying de-icing chemicals to any surfaces. 6.2 Provider is not responsible for removing ice that has formed before or after snow removal, or for removing packed snow or ice caused by vehicle or foot traffic after a visit. 6.3 Provider does not inspect or repair the condition of driveways, walkways, steps, or other surfaces. Client remains responsible for the condition and maintenance of all surfaces. 6.4 Provider is not responsible for clearing snow from roofs, overhangs, or other elevated surfaces, and will not perform work that requires climbing onto roofs or other elevated areas unless agreed in writing and properly equipped.

This clause lists services that are not included, such as salting, de-icing, ice removal, surface repairs, and roof work, unless the Parties agree otherwise in writing.

8. LIABILITY & DAMAGE:

8.1 Provider will perform the Services using reasonable care and skill for this type of work. 8.2 Client understands that even after snow removal, some snow, ice, or slippery conditions may remain. Client is responsible for deciding whether to use additional measures, such as applying salt or sand, and for warning visitors about any remaining slippery areas. 8.3 Client will promptly notify Provider in writing of any damage that Client believes was caused by the Services, and will allow Provider a reasonable opportunity to inspect the damage. 8.4 Provider’s total responsibility for any claims, losses, or damages that arise out of or relate to the Services, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, will not exceed five hundred dollars (US $500) in the aggregate. 8.5 In no event will either Party be responsible to the other for loss of profits, loss of use, or other indirect or special damages that arise from the Services. 8.6 Client is responsible for any injuries or property damage caused by Client’s failure to provide safe access, to mark hidden obstacles, or to follow reasonable safety instructions from Provider.

This clause sets expectations about remaining risk from snow and ice, limits Provider’s total financial responsibility to $500, excludes indirect losses, and requires prompt notice of alleged damage.
Legal wrap-up

7. TERM & TERMINATION:

7.1 This Agreement starts on the Effective Date and continues until all one-time Services described in the applicable Service Schedule are completed and paid for, unless ended earlier under this Section. 7.2 Either Party may end this Agreement at any time before a scheduled visit by giving written notice to the other Party. If a visit has already been scheduled, the cancellation rules in Section 3 will apply to that visit. 7.3 If either Party seriously fails to meet its obligations under this Agreement and does not correct that failure within a reasonable time after written notice, the other Party may end this Agreement by written notice. 7.4 Ending this Agreement does not cancel any payment obligations that have already become due, including fees for completed visits and any late cancellation fees.

This clause explains when the Agreement begins and ends, how either Party can end it, and that payment obligations for completed or scheduled visits still apply.

9. GOVERNING LAW & DISPUTE RESOLUTION:

9.1 This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted under the laws of the state where the property receiving the Services is located, without regard to its rules about conflicts of laws. 9.2 The Parties will first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute or claim related to this Agreement through informal discussions. 9.3 If the Parties cannot resolve a dispute through informal discussions within a reasonable time, either Party may pursue any dispute resolution method they agree to in writing, which may include mediation, arbitration, or filing a claim in a court with proper jurisdiction. 9.4 Each Party will be responsible for its own costs and expenses in any dispute, unless a court or other decision-maker orders otherwise.

This clause explains which state’s laws apply, encourages informal resolution of disputes first, and allows the Parties to use mediation, arbitration, or court if needed.

10. GENERAL PROVISIONS:

10.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any Service Schedule, is the entire agreement between the Parties about the Services and replaces all prior written or verbal understandings about the same subject. 10.2 Changes. Any change to this Agreement must be in writing and signed or clearly agreed to by both Parties (including by email confirmation). 10.3 No Waiver. If either Party does not enforce any part of this Agreement, that does not mean it waives the right to enforce that part later. 10.4 Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the rest of the Agreement will remain in effect, and the invalid part will be replaced by a valid term that best matches the Parties’ original intent. 10.5 Assignment. Neither Party may transfer or assign this Agreement to another person or business without the other Party’s written consent, except that Provider may assign this Agreement to an affiliated company or a purchaser of its snow removal business with notice to Client. 10.6 Notices. Formal notices under this Agreement must be in writing and may be delivered by hand, mail, or email to the contact information provided by each Party.

This clause states that this document is the full agreement, explains how changes must be made, and addresses waiver, invalid terms, assignment, and how formal notices are given.

PROVIDER: Name: ______________________________ Title (if applicable): ______________________________ Business Name (if applicable): ______________________________ Signature: ______________________________ Date: ______________________________ CLIENT: Name: ______________________________ Title (if applicable): ______________________________ Business Name (if applicable): ______________________________ Signature: ______________________________ Date: ______________________________
