Snow Plowing vs. Snow Blowing

Which is best for me?:

In this article I will list the pro’s and con’s of Snow Plowing and Snow Blowing.  The Snow industry is challenging and I have had first hand experience from high-end shopping plaza’s to residential driveways and everything in between.  I have operated most equipment and had been faced with extreme circumstances on many occasions.  I believe you can do the best work by aligning the right equipment for each unique application

I am going to list the pros and cons of each so you can make an eduated decision on which route is best for you.

Pro’s

• You can move through the route quickly
• Trucks can handle a lot of snow
• Trucks/plows are very reliable

Con’s

• Plows are limited to where to put snow
• Heavy snow years you will need to have snow relocated
• Blocks visability at the ends of driveways
• Difficult to see.  Period.
• Heavy snow years require the truck to “push back” the piles to make more room.  extra charge.
• Lawn Damage (usually)

Snow Blowing

Pro’s

• You have a lot of options on where to put snow
• No need to drive on the lawn
• GREAT visabliity – safer for everyone
• Very reliable and effecient
• No need for relocation on heavy snow years
• Clean bankings

Con’s

• Still trying to figure this one out… check back.
