Nice stacking on the part of the operator. Those Arctic plows are the absolute best!

[@jesserousseau2481]

Those plows are amazing the arctic sectional

[@rightsideupvt]

What a champion plowman!

[@wideslammer]

It was interesting to see how you planned your "paths" to maximize gathering snow and getting to the "drop off" spot.

[@rpsimoes1382]

This guy needs a GPS.

[@tulletroll58storhaug35]

Good job

[@IceAge20017]

I wish my company could afford those nice front loaders like that. I have an old ford tractor that's broken.

[@marcvachesus9071]

we used volvo hitachi and john deere front end loader with depending on the size of the loader we have a selection from 6 foot to 20 blade lol but i am naging my boss to get me a deslamco blade for the volvo L150G that i operate

Yep right in front of these 2 trucks is a perfect spot for a big pile of snow

[@stanguay169]

Well, it's not a truck stop...

Willi nilly plowing 101...

[@douglasbowman2098]

Even though it is a Walmart parking lot, this guy looks like he has been drinking with the way he is plowing. He is worse than my wife mowing the lawn.

[@FoamyGhhgy6him90nhbnbjm0]

Douglas Bowman, he’s doing basic clean-up, it’s still snowing so he doesn’t really give a sh*t

[@xdigit45x]

this seems like the messiest and most disorganized plow job i have ever seen

[@IceAge20017]

He's actually not doing bad.

[@truckguy6.7]

Yah, forecast could be for snow and its obviously still snowing so he is probably just keeping it open. He could also have a contract that pays him by the hour. If that was the case he is doing the right thing.

[@Valete00]

@@truckguy6.7 Unfortunly the truth. In my area, many Businesses want to cheap out on Snow Plowing. When the landlord of a big commercial area changed last winter, which i was plowing for a fair und fixed rate per snow day, they changed my contract to an hourly rate which was overall way to cheap. They would even watch me over Security Cams, and correct my time by 5mins, which i stopped for an important call. Now i'm playing their game and exploit it, i let my Tractor with the arctic snow pusher plow on other Places and do their Parking Lot with older an smaller Equipment. With an fair price, that is not paid by the hour, i could easily buy a second Arctic Pusher, which would be a win-win for both parties. But they destroy that by trying to cheap out on everything.

Planning

[@jasonbilili2043]

Were do you mount your camera?

[@robertpendzick9250]

Looks like your going to need some salt, lots of shine when the snow is removed. Very smooth handling. Why are you piling some off the sides?

[@camogrips]

We salt after every storm unless it's going to be above freezing and sunny. Piling snow on the sides because we're running out of places to put it.

[@bigboss4298]

Makes more sense to me to put it on the sides than in the middle!! Just sayin!

[@jimsmith3203]

That is one big ass parking lot

[@gregory22444ableify]

That's a pretty typical size Walmart parking lot

[@christophersullivan2918]

How are you not breaking the poly blocks when you stack a pile? I’m a good operator and I can’t stack a pile like that without snapping those poly blocks. Is that a 14 foot

[@PolarisEricson]

I stack with a 14 arctic all the time?

[@green-zone36]

Is it good to push snow away from the piles?

[@SJWEQUIPMENT]

ABP Always be pushing, if your not pushing you're wasting time

[@nocoolname32]

@@SJWEQUIPMENT totally disagree.

[@bd8026]

That’s a job I need. Where I’m not on my feet. Which kill me now being on them. Even for half a shift.

[@IceAge20017]

I have this job. And I got it for the same reason. FYI there is about an hour of shoveling the spots the tractor can't reach.

[@green-zone36]

I plow snow in the winter. Some people are cut out for it others not. Only way to find out is give it a try. I think the hardest part is the long hours after a big dump of snow. I am over 60 and can't await for the next storm. In my area thete is a shortage of operators. Most equipment operators are on employment insurance and want the winter off.

[@Equipcohd]

I still love watching these pushers work even though I own 5 of them. Is that a 13?

[@nail928]

CountryBoyFord7 that is a 13. That loader can even go bigger if he wanted too

[@vrcun]

What is the ground speed on that 244k?

[@connormarler1698]

Goes about 30km/h tops, maybe not quite. So like 15ish miles an hour.

[@tigerzero5216]

I'm late commenting 9 months after. Only about 2 or at best 3 inches of snow accumulation at the time of the plowing. Easy task for the JD. 2-3 inches doesn't seem like much until you scrape it all into a pile from a parking lot. Also, were you expecting much more snow and wanted to not let it get deep and be a big chore?
