INDUSTRIAL YARDS & LOADING ACCESS
Industrial snow removal for yards, warehouses & loading bays.
Make room for the way your business operates in winter. AIM Cedar Works plans industrial snow clearing, salting and pedestrian access in Burnaby and Metro Vancouver around truck movements, loading schedules, shift changes and available snow-storage space.

YOUR WINTER SERVICE PLAN
A service plan that accounts for an active yard.
- Loading and vehicle accessEntrances, drive aisles, trailer approaches and loading doors reviewed alongside delivery schedules and turning space.
- Employee routesParking and pedestrian approaches identified separately, including the access needed at shift changes.
- Salting and snow storageTreatment surfaces and snow-placement areas agreed without assuming every part of the yard has the same requirements.
Each written proposal confirms the service areas, rates and treatment conditions for your property.

Loading doors, trailer positions, turning space and gate access affect how equipment can move through an industrial property. Tell us when deliveries begin, which lanes are shared and where parked vehicles or materials may restrict the clearing route.
Separate critical access from the wider yard
A property may have several priorities: the entrance road, active loading bays, employee parking, waste collection and emergency access. Identifying those areas helps define the service scope and the order in which the site should be approached.
Account for shifts and occupied sites
Many industrial sites remain active outside normal office hours. Provide shift changes, gate arrangements and an operations contact during the quote process. A clear communication plan matters when trailers, forklifts or employee vehicles occupy the pavement.
Choose snow-storage areas that preserve movement
Snow placement should avoid loading approaches, visibility at exits, drainage routes and equipment staging areas. Limited storage can change the equipment or follow-up work required, so it should be discussed before the service plan is finalized.
Can AIM assess more than one industrial address?
Yes. Send each address and explain whether the properties share access, management or operating requirements. AIM can review the locations together and confirm route availability and a site-specific scope.
What should an industrial snow-removal request include?
Include the property address, active hours, priority lanes, loading areas, pedestrian routes and known access restrictions. A marked site plan is helpful when several buildings or tenants share the property.
