Snow Pushers in Vaughan, ON.
Vaughan's industrial north (Concord, CN intermodal) clears 24/7 — but its sprawling residential subdivisions wait at the back of the city's plow priority. Winters here mix freeze-thaw weeks with hard cold snaps, so ice and pack are bigger factors than raw snow volume — and lots are large and drive-times between properties dominate routing. The local economy leans on Canada's Wonderland, Vaughan Mills, and Mackenzie Health, which means our routes pre-treat Canada's Wonderland's sites before residential bookings whenever a storm is forecast inside their shift change.
