Hourly plowing rates typically run $50 to $100 per hour. Shoveling or blowing is typically priced at $25 to $75 per hour. Hourly work is useful when a plow cannot fully clear tight driveways or walkways.

Do snow plow drivers need a commercial license?
New Jersey DOT snow-plowing contracts require drivers to hold a valid Commercial Driver License. Those contracts also require at least 2 years of experience operating the assigned class of truck. Residential pros are not always held to the same rules, so ask.
What to do next
- Ask each pro for proof of insurance before you agree to service.
- Request a quote that states whether the price is per visit, hourly, or seasonal.
- Confirm the service covers your driveway, walkways, and any tight areas a plow may miss.
