Snow & Ice Management · South Etobicoke · Groundhog Landscaping
We clear.
You sleep in.
South Etobicoke's dependable snow clearing crew since 2006. Driveways, walkways, and commercial lots — on-site before your alarm goes off, every storm.
Automatic Dispatch Threshold
No call needed. No waiting.
We watch — you sleep.
Our Standard
Cleared before
the morning rush
We monitor Environment Canada forecasts 24/7. The moment a storm is forecast, your route is pre-staged for dispatch.
Auto-dispatch at 5cm accumulation. Not when it stops snowing. Not when we get around to it. At the threshold, we go.
We work South Etobicoke exclusively. Tight routes mean faster response and a crew that knows your property year over year.
Post-storm ice checks on Gold & Platinum plans. Freeze-thaw cycles are dangerous. We return so you don't slip on what re-froze overnight.
The Storm Night
What happens
while you're asleep
Every storm follows the same sequence. Every client gets the same result: a cleared property before the morning commute.
8 PM
Forecast Confirmed
Environment Canada issues a winter storm advisory. Crew lead reviews routes, pre-positions equipment, and pre-treats high-risk surfaces.
11 PM
5cm Reached — Dispatch
Automatic trigger fires. All routes activate simultaneously. No calls, no approval needed — it just happens.
1–3 AM
Clearing in Progress
Driveways plowed, walkways shoveled, salt applied. Every address on the route, in sequence, through the night.
5 AM
Route Complete
All properties cleared ahead of morning commutes. Gold & Platinum: post-storm ice check is automatically scheduled.
Next Day
Ice Watch Return
Freeze-thaw follow-up visit. Calcium chloride on steps, entrances, and any surface that re-froze overnight.

Service Territory
South
Etobicoke,
only.
We don't drive across the city. Tight geographic focus means faster routes, crews who know your property by name, and genuine accountability when it matters most.
Full route coverage throughout Mimico — lakefront properties, condo lots, and the commercial strip along Lake Shore Blvd W.
Residential driveways and walkways throughout Long Branch. Tight routes allow early-morning clearance before most households wake.
Residential streets and the Lake Shore commercial corridor. Mixed-use clients welcome — consolidated invoicing available.
Longer driveways and corner lots no problem. Our equipment handles varied property sizes efficiently across all of Alderwood.
Condo lots, townhouse complexes, and detached homes. Property management companies welcome — consolidated invoicing available.
Why Groundhog
Dependable
when it's
worst outside
We've been clearing Etobicoke driveways since 2006. That's 18+ winters of routes refined, equipment upgraded, and trust earned — one property at a time.
Etobicoke Routes Only
No driving across the city. Tight local routes mean we're on your street faster — and back again on multi-pass storm nights.
Same Crew, Every Season
The same operator returns to your property each winter. They know your gate code, your narrow side path, and which step ices first.
Service Logs for Commercial Clients
Time-stamped visit records available on request — critical for slip-and-fall liability protection under Ontario law.
Lawn-Safe Ice Control
Low-chloride and liquid pre-treatment options protect your lawn, interlock, and local waterways from salt damage.
A Real Person Answers
No ticket system. No bot. If you have a concern mid-storm, you reach a person — same day, every time.
