For operators — Winter 2026–27 Hiring year-round

A snow day pays
$1,000+.

Winter is the off-season for landscaping, painting, and pressure washing. Your truck's parked and your crew's idle — right when our phones start ringing. We build a route around where you live, under sixty minutes of total drive, and lend you the equipment for the season.

Apply to operate

Tell us where you live and what you've got. Takes about sixty seconds.

Got it.

Next: lock in your 15-minute intro call on the calendar — or we'll text you a booking link.

Applications are read year-round. Referral bonus: $500 once your referral finishes their first storm with us.

02 / The money

The number,
up front.

Posted up front.
No guessing, no negotiating in a snowstorm.
$1,000+ Per route, per snow event day

What your route pays on a snow event. Dispatch at 04:00, route cleared in the morning, paid for the day — that's the expectation, not the ceiling.

+20% Perfect route completion, per snow event

Clear every site on your route to spec during a snow event and that event pays 20% more. Every storm is a fresh shot at it.

Path A

Committed route

Your route, all season. A typical Lower Mainland winter brings 15+ de-icing dispatches and 5+ snow events — each one a paid day, and a perfect clear pays 20% more.

Path B

Chillin' Fill-in

No assigned route. You're on the call-out list for storm surge and coverage gaps, paid hourly with a 4-hour minimum per call-out. A good way to try the work before committing to a route next season.

03 / Who this fits

Your slow season
is our whole business.

Trucks, crews, and work ethic that
sit idle from November to March.

Landscapers

Your maintenance contracts sleep until spring. Your truck, trailer experience, and crew don't have to. Snow routes are the winter arm of the same business.

Painters

Exterior season ends when the rain starts. A committed route keeps the payroll running through the exact months the brushes are dry.

Pressure washers

Same properties, same property managers, opposite season. Half our best operators run a washing rig from April to October.

No plow? Many routes run on a snowblower — lent for the season, not sold. Bring an ATV with a plow and we'll help you finance the purchase. If you've got a truck or SUV and a work ethic, apply.

Route

The route is your block

Routes are built around where you live and finish in under sixty minutes of total drive. No hauling across the region before dawn.

Equipment

Gear comes with it

Commercial-grade snowblower lent for the season — picked up at the October kickoff, returned in spring. Shovels and salt supplied. ATV-with-plow operators: we'll support the purchase.

Backup

Ranger network

Operators work with a ranger: a territory lead on the road during events for coverage, salt resupply, and a hand when a site fights back.

Dispatch

You're told, not guessing

Weather is watched for you. When an event triggers, dispatch reaches you directly with your route — you confirm, roll, and photo-document the work.

05 / From application to first storm

Four steps
to first storm.

Applications read year-round.
Routes set before first snowfall.
Step 1

Apply

Four fields, sixty seconds. No resume, no cover letter.

Step 2

15-minute intro call

Book it straight into our calendar. A real conversation with Cameron about your area, your gear, and the money — not an interview panel.

Step 3

Contract, onboarding & training

Review and sign your subcontractor agreement, get set up on dispatch and the job app, and train before first snowfall.

Step 4

First storm

Dispatch wakes you, your ranger's nearby, and the day pays $1,000+. Clear it, photograph it, invoice it.

06 / Straight answers

The questions you'd
ask on the call anyway.

Asked by every applicant.
Answered before you apply.
Do I need my own insurance?

Your vehicle stays under your own auto policy. You do need your own liability coverage (CGL) — and we've arranged a policy for under $1,000 that covers you while you're working for us, so it isn't the barrier it sounds like.

Is there a minimum I have to commit to?

No minimum earnings target and no quota. A committed route is a whole-season commitment to that route. Chillin' Fill-in is call-by-call, paid hourly, and every call-out pays a 4-hour minimum even if the work runs short. Pick the path that fits your winter.

What does the equipment cost me?

Nothing to start. The commercial-grade snowblower is lent for the season — picked up in October, returned in spring. Shovels and salt are supplied. You bring the vehicle. Want to run an ATV with a plow? We're willing to support the purchase.

How fast do I get paid?

You invoice after each event and are paid within 10 days — often quicker. Not at the end of the month, not at the end of the season.

I've never done snow work. Does that matter?

No. New operators are onboarded and trained before first snowfall, with a ranger nearby through the first storms. The work rewards showing up, not a resume.
