I don't want to know the price but just curious on something that big... How to you get charged? do they charge you per visit based on snowfall amount?

BTW, I would have to get me one of these for your place.

I pay about $30 each time they come out. I prepay for 15 visits and that is usually the average number of visits per year. If more or less we just adjust rate of the lawn care in the spring.

My cousins driveway in the city is about 40 ft long and he gets charged $25 each visit lol.

No way!

That's so cheap.

Even kids coming around in ATV charge more than that around here and your driveway is almost 10 times the size! I got to get out of NJ.

When my brother was plowing. He had the contract for the local army reserve center. The contract was based on the amount of snow. 0 to 3", 3" to 8", 8" to 14". Then anything over 14", or something like that. I remember being 4 steps in the amount paid. It was a good contract because it paid well. My brother always hoped for over 14" of snow each time it snowed.

It would pay for the monthly truck payment.

The owner of the company is my neighbor so that helps out. It takes them maybe all of 15 minutes to clear the whole driveway.

My Mahindra is a little bigger than that. It has a front end loader on it. I call it my little buddy. Can't live without it at my place. I would love a 40hp one with A/C to bush hog my pasture with.

I might just dial in right now.

I imagine it’s just nonstop “stop the steal” rantings on right now.

Followed by reminders for whoever is hosting the next key party.
