Most residential driveways and walkways are a great fit for robotic clearing. Here’s what tends to matter, and what we confirm in person before anything is installed.
Surfaces
Asphalt and concrete are ideal. Gravel drives work too: the robot’s snow intake height is adjustable (raised to roughly two inches for gravel) so it clears the snow without vacuuming up your driveway, and the chute is metal to shrug off the occasional stone.
Slopes and traction
The robot runs on steel-spiked tracks with a deep tread designed for snow and ice, so typical residential grades are fine. Steep or complicated slopes are exactly the kind of thing the site assessment exists to check.
Size
By Yarbo’s published numbers, the snow module clears a 24-inch swath and covers roughly 6,000 square feet of one-inch snow on a charge — and it recharges itself and goes back out. Long drives and generous walkway networks are well within range; we’ll size the plan to the property.
What the assessment covers
Your local crew walks the property, checks surfaces, slopes, obstacles, and layout, plans where thrown snow should land, and confirms connectivity. If something about the property won’t work well, we’ll tell you straight — before you’ve spent anything.
