Another great video like how you stage extra equipment at your sites. I have learned the hard way how important it is to have extra equipment. Please keep the videos coming I am looking at Jcb equipment more since I started watching your videos
We finally got our first 6 inch storm a few days ago here in upstate New York. It’s always like plowing for the first time that first storm of the season and it usually takes way longer than it should because you’re working out all the quirks of a new site.
Thank you! And hmmmm not really sure on tips. I’d just say bid on em. Helps if u can do year round stuff for them too and other stuff that way they only call u for many things
@@centuryslandscapingservice4769 I don’t use any! I’m from a small town so everyone knows me really. I’m lucky enough to have a lack of competition as well
I worked for ARCTIC for quite a few years plowing in a loader with a 18 footer. Operated a CAT 328 k Kamotsu 344 both awesome but the Kamotsu could push way more also you aughta check out their new truck plow pretty slick set up wing on side of plow move independently in or out plus plow moves up down left and right.
Nice I bet that was fun! I don’t think I’m gunna get one just cause fishers are cheap and we don’t use trucks much. But I do want the skid steer version bad! 10.5 one. I heard they r 26k 😑
Hey they do sell used sectionals or older ones. Call their Frankfort, IL location ask for John Starek you can tell him I sent you John is a great Guy as well as the owner Randy and both his boys Lucas and Blake any way you can tell him Dennis Mac the IRISHMAN SENT YA HELL KNOW 👍👍 Good luck and HAPPY NEW YEAR
@@tandtlandscapeandmasonry Im so sorry thought your were referring to the sectional box. Not the new the new plowdesign with the hydrolic wings. I've done snow removal since I was 16 years old.worked with ARCTIC, Private outfits, my own business plus 10 years for the STATE OF ILLINOIS IDOT PLOWING SNOW. 2 things you could finance that thru ARCTIC I BELIEVE or even though partial to the sectional I still like the Kage set up. It's a box pusher then it's a straight blade as well.Plus I would think it far less expensive but I'm probably wrong being everything in this country has gone up ridiculously.Also kinda and FYI if ya didn't know on the sectional there are to cut outs one on each side towards the top. It's a sight hole for the operator to see. In that cutout is a visual of the moldboard. This lets you know if the blade is square to the ground. Now like curling your bucket forward doing this to the sectional will create more down pressure to help remove packed snow or ice. You'll be able to watch moldboard move forward and back in that triangle cut out. Basicly when it's lined up in the center all good just a touch forward will create a better scrape when it get rough.One more thing if I may .Seen on the video you stated a lot of salt. Two things purple snow slicer which requires far less speed and works quick and good to about -20 degrees. Yes rock salt is much cheaper but if your going thru 15 tons that's a lot and yes it is more expensive but using far less also I understand its a hospital so meaning ZT LOT zero tolerance nothing on the lot for liability. Or the other thing my buddy does with buy rock bulk which I'm sure you do is he buys a plastic tote of this stuff similar to beat juice and then sprays the entire lot of the rock salt turning it to mix it with the skid or loader then really what's left. Thus stuff worked awesome quick acting but what was great after it did it job of melting creating like a brine after it would dry up it left a residual on the lot helping the next snow not stick right a way. Sorry for rambling on done thus so long I could still do it in my sleep 😂😂😂 Have great one and hope you have a good season. Where I live in Illinois we've only seen if lucky so far maybe 0.50 😩
@@dennismcclintock3154 your all good and thank you for all the info you know your shit. I tell all the guys about the pusher and had them watch the training video arctic has but one of the kids is like brand new. The salt thing I charge them per ton. So I don’t mind using a lot. I do have stand by liquid stuff that I can spray on that goes to -20 if we get a cold snap!
I’d recommend it if it’s a tire machine but pretty sure that’s track? I mean track still would be good if you have the right tracks on or studs but they are slow compared to tire
Yeah, i run a tractor trailer lift truck, easier to show than explain what that is, and i found out due to building inspector showing up tbY i was supposed to have one. I have a forklift license, but thats in Pennsylvania where i run out of. I wasnt sure wether maine was the same or not. I deliver up there but never checked into it.
@@tandtlandscapeandmasonry oh so its not crazy difference is size would of thought the 750 would of been a little more convenient to use gor salting but difference in fuel makes up no
@@TommyRedline the reason why I don’t use it is because i don’t wanna rust it out. It’s my most expensive truck and I want to baby it and keep it in mint condition. Also the 550 anyone of my guys can drive, it has 4wd with better tires, they turn better and have better visibility.
@@tandtlandscapeandmasonry ive noticed the same using a denali 3500 dually compared to a 7500 topkick the 3500 is a lot better turning ratio and easier to get into tigher areas compared to the 7500 thats only good for pretty much doin main roads
@@tandtlandscapeandmasonry been in the business for almost 10 years have a 2500 3500 dually both denalis and a 7500 and both 2500/3500 have way better turning ratios then my 7500
Does maine pay well for snow plowing? I know down in New York its hard to justify that much equipment for snow plowing. Just doesnt make sense with the little bit of money they are willing to pay.
@@tandtlandscapeandmasonry the emissions are the only thing keeping me from buying a 6.7 over the 7.3 Godzilla, I don’t have a big enough excavator to really NEED the powerstroke yet but I do love my 7.3

Don’t really feel comfortable saying but it’s our biggest contract. Spread over 5 years. Snow Plowing is 6 payments for the winter months. All salt and snow moving is extra per ton and per hour

I learned everything I know about snow plowing from The Snow Plow Show. Really nice to see it here in action! The King of Maine, Spose would be proud!
Thank you!
Great equipment and setup. Nice job !!!
Thank you!!
As an snow operator in Portland, great to see how other businesses in Maine handle snow removal! Hoping for more snow across the state! 🫡🫡
Nice! Small world!
Seems to me that knowing your lots beforehand is essential ! Nice work !
Thank you!
Thanks for all the fun this year see you next year
Thank you for the comments and support! Happy new year
Nice set up. Keep up the hard work !
Thank you!

I’m glad I keep a lot of extra stuff that’s for sure. I’d recommend JCB if I was you! And will do! Thanks
Look into metal pless winged plow. A lot more money but it definitely saves a lot of time in cleaning up wind rows
Nice setup! We need to get you pull plow though ;)

How do you like the JCB skidsteer i cant stand climbing into a bobcat.
I love it! Visibility, access and the teleboom make the the best skid steers by far. I got review videos of them if your thinking about buying one
Nice iron !
Thank you!
Hey do you have a diesel fuel tank at your shop so you can fuel your skid steer and diesel trucks
No but I do have a 90 gallon tank in the duramax! I need one at my shop for the summer months tho!
I plow 50 driveways close together. How would the arctic seal maybe 8 foot be on the driveways with the Asv RT 75 what did damage him or be OK?

Good!
Tell me exactly how you got this account.
Got it 3 years ago and there was only one other who bid against us.
Great footage but you were ploeing at 2 inches thats not zero tolerance.
Zero tolerance is pavement as much as possible if its snowing youre pushing.
This is zero tolerance where the parking lots were open. It was Sunday so like 10 building we’re not open only 3! On weekdays it’s crazy packed
