An Act relative to snow removal service liability limitation
This bill (SD 26) makes certain liability clauses in snow removal contracts unenforceable. It directly affects snow removal companies (service providers) and their customers (service receivers), such as homeowners or businesses. The law voids any contract terms requiring:
- A service provider to cover damages caused by the customer’s actions,
- A customer to cover damages caused by the service provider, or
- Either party to "hold harmless" the other for their own negligence.
This prevents unfair shifting of liability in standard snow removal agreements.
