HUB ZERO

Snow and ice management built for commercial liability, not just clearing.

HUB ZERO is HUB Centro’s dedicated snow and ice management division — seasonal contracts and on-demand response for properties that can’t afford an unmanaged parking lot or walkway.

How we help

Seasonal snow clearing, salting and ice management for commercial properties, strata buildings and parkades, backed by equipment sized to the property and a division built specifically for winter response.

What’s included

  • Seasonal snow clearing contracts
  • On-demand, per-event response
  • Salting and ice management for lots, walkways and entrances
  • Parkade and covered-area clearing
  • Equipment matched to property size, from walkways to full commercial lots
  • Coordination with property/building managers on timing and priority areas

When clients call us

  • A property needs a seasonal snow and ice contract in place before winter
  • The current snow contractor isn't showing up reliably
  • A one-off snow event needs a fast response
  • A slip-and-fall concern has raised the need for a documented ice management plan
  • A parkade or covered area needs clearing equipment a typical crew doesn't carry
  • A portfolio needs one contractor across every property instead of separate arrangements per site

Properties we support

  • Strata buildings and high-rise residential towers
  • Commercial buildings and offices
  • Shopping centres and plazas
  • Parkades
  • Mixed-use developments
  • Multi-property portfolios

How we handle it

  1. 01

    Set the plan before winter

    For seasonal accounts, we confirm priority areas, trigger conditions and response expectations ahead of the first snowfall.

  2. 02

    Monitor and respond

    Crews and equipment are dispatched based on the conditions at your property — walkways, lots, and parkades get treated to the plan.

  3. 03

    Salt and treat for ice

    Ice management continues after the snow stops, treating the surfaces that create liability risk.

  4. 04

    Document the visit

    Each service visit is recorded so you have a record of when a property was serviced.

Why HUB Centro

  • A dedicated division (HUB ZERO) rather than snow removal as an afterthought to a landscaping contract
  • Equipment sized to the property — from small walkways to full commercial lots and parkades
  • One contact for snow and ice plus every other property need the rest of the year
  • Service visits are documented, supporting your liability and reporting needs

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer seasonal contracts or only on-demand snow removal?

Both. Seasonal contracts secure priority response for the whole winter; on-demand service is available for properties that need per-event coverage instead.

Can HUB ZERO service parkades and covered areas?

Yes — parkades and covered areas are part of what HUB ZERO handles, using equipment suited to those spaces rather than treating them the same as an open lot.

How is ice management different from snow clearing?

Snow clearing removes accumulation; ice management treats surfaces afterward — and sometimes ahead of a forecast event — to reduce slip risk on walkways, entrances and lots.

Do you document snow and ice service visits?

Yes, each visit is documented. HUB ZERO is also the first division where HUB Centro is developing more detailed digital service-visit records — see below for what’s coming.

What areas does HUB ZERO currently service?

HUB ZERO services Metro Vancouver and the Lower Mainland alongside the rest of HUB Centro’s operations, with growth planned into the wider Fraser Valley where seasonal contracts can be established.
