Rural Lane Clearing – Ratepayers

The Municipality of Roblin provides rural lane clearing services to ratepayers to help maintain safe and accessible driveways during all seasons. Whether for routine snow removal in the winter or general lane maintenance in the summer, these services ensure that residents can access their properties safely and efficiently.

  • Lane Clearing (Flat Rate, Max 15 Minutes) – Summer & Winter: $50.00
  • Custom Work – Summer: $180.00/hr
  • Custom Work – Winter: $240.00/hr

Service Conditions

  • Lane clearing is limited to a maximum of 15 minutes per job at the flat rate. If additional work is required beyond this timeframe, it may be subject to custom work rates.
  • Custom work is billed at an hourly rate and includes tasks beyond standard lane clearing.

Important Information

  • The Municipality of Roblin reserves the right to deny or refuse service where it is impractical or dangerous to do so. This may include extreme weather conditions, impassable terrain, or other safety hazards that pose a risk to equipment or personnel.
  • Service will be secondary to municipal work requirements. Municipal roadways, emergency routes, and other priority areas will always take precedence over individual lane clearing requests.

Residents requiring lane clearing services are encouraged to plan ahead and be aware of potential delays during periods of heavy snowfall or other extreme conditions. For more information or to request services, please contact the Municipal Office.
