Does the definition of 'Bigfoot Forestry Services' include snow removal?

According to Bigfoot Forestry's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the definition of "Bigfoot Forestry Services" does include snow removal. Specifically, Bigfoot Forestry Services encompasses all services that the company periodically requires or authorizes for its franchisees. This includes land clearing, excavation, and maintenance services, along with related services such as stump grinding, forestry mulching, geological test trail clearing, demolition, and snow removal, as well as other comparable services.

For a prospective franchisee, this means that snow removal is considered one of the core services that a Bigfoot Forestry franchise may offer. However, the document also indicates that Bigfoot Forestry may designate certain services as optional, so franchisees may have the option, but not the obligation, to offer snow removal services.

It is important to note that offering optional services may require franchisees to complete additional training, purchase additional equipment and tools, and secure additional licenses or permits. Furthermore, franchisees are restricted from offering any goods or services without prior written permission from Bigfoot Forestry, and they must comply with any instructions regarding changes to authorized goods and services.
