I have been out of the business for about 14 years but I used to sell and work on Western snow plows. On a 3/4 ton Chevy truck with a 9'6" v plow Western called out for a 1000lbs of weight in the back of the truck. Makes a big difference to be properly weighted. Also we had back drag edges that bolted on the back of the plow to help scrap hard pack snow when back dragging. That plow seems short from ground up not much height to the blade. Is it short because it's so long to save some weight.

if that lot were my lot to plow (and we get a lot of packed ice lots) I'd bid it for 300 lbs of ice melt bare and dry. for packed ice removal. we put down 2x the bare volume down of ice melt with the tail gate spreader, let that 600 lbs burn in for about 15 or 20 mins and then scape it clean with 10x less time and effort. then a final salting pass of an additional 300 lbs after scraping everything up. so packed ice uses 3x the bare and wet volume of ice melt... Out here in Seattle, packed ice lots are just an everyday thing and my guys are awesome at it! :-)

@@robertvannicolo4435 ya, out in Seattle where we’re at, the snow and ice game is a WHOLE DIFFERENT ANIMAL. Out here we maybe get one or two plowing events every year, so plowing is a losing game. De-icing is the main thing, because it does get cold, and it’s always wet. De-icing and salting services have to be WAAAY more expensive, because that part of the service has to pay for the plows and labor, and insurance if it doesn’t snow at all. In the mid west, a de-icing service that costs 80 90 bucks might cost 2 or 3 hundred here. On top of all that, it’s chaos out here, very little experience, a lot of the snow contractors are just some dude with a plow, and maybe he shows up, maybe his plow or his truck is functional when it matters. If clients out here want a reliable service they gotta pay for it. It’s not competitive like in the central US at all. We have our own little thing going on out here, I assume we are stupid expensive next to most areas of the country, but I can never meet the demand each year…. Each October November, I have commercial properties all trying to dig like into our deployments lists. When it snows, we damn near kill ourselves trying to address everyone’s needs. It’s absolutely BONKERS. There is no “we’re not paying for salt” here. If I have no time for any push back on price. We do our best to keep the cost low, but when we run into bulls trying to oust us around, they just don’t get service. And from what I’ve heard from the small handful I’ve had to cut ties with, they deeply regret not understanding the situation we’re in out here…

We don’t accept liability for slips and trips whether we salt or not. Our contract language is VERY clear. There are couple companies out here that do take that promise to accept liability on, but everything I’m hearing from their clients who get kissed off and dump them mid season, is because they don’t show up. It’s a couple National companies that farm it out to local guys. I think the Problem is most of the local don’t show up from what I hear, because the sub rates are so low, and they take months to pay, the general contractors have basically run out of subcontractors. They’ve burnt all their bridges, and have no labor force left to serve their contracts out with. It’s chaos out here!

Have you ever done a video about or reacting to the videos showing Montreal snow cleanup? Or other extreme snow cleanup or equipment? Like the municipal trucks where the trailer crabwalks out and cleans 3 or 4 lanes at once. Or just recently I came across some narrated videos from the 30's and 40's of trucks with HUGE fixed V plows just having to hit snow drifts over and over again. But the Montreal thing blows my mind, the sheer amount of infrastructure is mind-boggling to me, growing up in Michigan, a snow state, and seeing how we do the bare minimum if anything at all. I don't even know Montreal's industry or what their taxes must be like to afford to do that level of snow removal. Maybe I am just a sheltered dumb American, and there are similar operations in North America.
