When the snow flies, our crew comes alive. At Custom Lawn-Scapes, Heavy Equipment Operators are the ones in the driver’s seat—literally—powering skid steers, loaders, and pushers through the storm to keep businesses open and people safe. If you love big machines, fast-paced work, and being part of a team that knows how to crush a challenge and still have fun, this is the job for you. Whether you’re seeking snow removal jobs, heavy equipment operator positions, skid steer operator jobs, or loader operator jobs, this is the perfect opportunity for you! We also welcome applicants with experience in construction, trucking, landscaping, roadwork, excavation, and other equipment-based industries.

Why This Job Rocks

  • Competitive pay – $25–$35/hr based on experience skills test
  • Run the big toys – From skid steers to wheel loaders, you’ll be behind the controls of serious equipment.
  • Feel the rush – Every storm brings new challenges, and you’ll be the one clearing the way.
  • Crew vibes – No drama, no slackers—just a team that’s got your back and knows how to make long shifts fly by.
  • End-of-storm pride – Step back, look at the site you just cleared, and know you owned it.

What You’ll Do

  • Clear snow and ice from parking lots, loading zones, and commercial sites.
  • Team up with plow trucks and sidewalk crews to keep sites safe and storm-ready.
  • Spread salt and de-icing materials to keep the ground clear.
  • Keep your machine sharp, safe, and ready for action.

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience running heavy equipment (construction or snow).
  • A valid driver’s license (CDL is a plus).
  • Dependable, team-focused, and ready to roll when the snow hits.
  • Comfortable braving the cold and getting the job done right.
