Snow removal in Langley: plowing companies and the sidewalk rules

Snow doesn’t come often in Langley, but when it does, here’s who will plow and salt for you, and what the Township and City expect you to do yourself. The rules are from each municipality’s own site; every company is listed only if its own website says it works in Langley. Checked November 7, 2026.

The sidewalk rules

In the Township of Langley, under the Highway and Traffic Bylaw, snow must be cleared from the sidewalks and walkways next to your property within 24 hours of the first accumulation in residential areas, and by 10 am in commercial and industrial areas. Don’t push it onto the road: the Township says cleared snow has to stay on your property. Pile it on the right side of your driveway or on your yard. Bylaw complaints go to the Township’s Bylaw Enforcement Division; snow and ice service requests to 604-532-7300.

In the City of Langley, the Highway and Traffic Regulation Bylaw (No. 2871) says owners must clear snow or ice from the sidewalks and walkways bordering their property within 24 hours after a snowfall, or before it builds up past about 10 cm. You also have to clear snow or ice off roofs next to a road or sidewalk if it could fall on people.

Both clear the main routes first. Residential streets and cul-de-sacs come after, which is why your street may wait. The Township publishes maps of its priority roads, trails and park parking lots, and the City has a Snow Control Priority Map. A plow going by with the blade up is usually on its way to a priority route.

Snow removal for homes

Most Langley snow companies only do commercial lots and stratas. These say on their sites that they do homes too:

When snow is coming

• Move cars parked in front of your driveway so plows can get through (Township advice).
• Stay off the roads if you can: plows clear priority routes faster with fewer cars on them.
