Beware of Gypsy Snow Removal Providers: Protect Your Property and Your Peace of Mind

Winter brings its own set of challenges, and when it comes to snow removal, it's crucial to be cautious about who you trust with the task. At KPS, we want to highlight the risks associated with unlicensed and uninsured providers who may offer seemingly attractive, low-cost snow removal services.


Beware of those individuals who may knock on your door, appear in online listings, social media, or come referred by others, posing as businesses but lacking the essential credentials that legitimate companies, like KPS, possess. These "gypsy" providers often operate without licenses or insurance, exposing your property and your liability to potential risks. Whether they're armed with just a shovel or a truck with a plow, their low-ball prices may seem enticing, but the consequences can be severe.


These providers cut corners by avoiding overhead and operating expenses, allowing them to offer unrealistically low prices. However, the real cost lies in the lack of proper training and knowledge, putting your property at risk of damage and leaving you without recourse if something goes wrong or the work is not properly performed. From slips and falls due to negligence in snow and ice treatment to property damage, the risks are far too high.


Moreover, this could potentially be a scam. Unscrupulous providers often request cash payments, leaving you unprotected and susceptible to ulterior motives such as robbery or other fraudulent activities. There's a risk that they may even plan to fake an injury while performing work on your property, adding another layer of concern.


It's crucial to note that some deceptive providers may go to great lengths, even providing business cards or fictitious business names to appear legitimate. We want to make it clear that we're not referring to the kid with a shovel who comes knocking on your door looking to earn some money.
