What are the responsibilities and job description for the Snow Removal Technician position at Storm Lawn and Snow?
Join the Storm Team – Snow Removal Operators Wanted
Pay: $25.00–$40.00 per hour
Location: Eagle Lake, MN
Job Type: Seasonal
When the snow flies, we roll out.
Storm Lawn & Snow is gearing up for another Minnesota winter, and we're looking for dependable, hardworking people to join our snow removal team. We have openings for sidewalk crew members, de-ice truck operators, and loader operators.
Snow removal isn't a typical 9–5 job. Storms can happen overnight, early in the morning, on weekends, and on holidays. When winter weather arrives, our customers are counting on us—and we're counting on our team to show up ready to work.
If you don't mind an unpredictable schedule, enjoy working with equipment, and want the opportunity to make good money when winter weather hits, this could be a great fit.
Positions Available
Sidewalk Crew / Snowrator Operators
Keep sidewalks, entrances, and pedestrian areas clear and safe using Snowrators, snow blowers, shovels, and other snow removal equipment. Previous experience is helpful but not required—we're willing to train dependable people who are ready to work.
De-Ice Truck Operators
Operate company trucks equipped with liquid de-icing systems to treat commercial parking lots and driving areas before, during, and after winter weather events. Operators follow assigned routes and apply liquid de-icer safely and accurately to help prevent and control snow and ice accumulation.
Previous experience with snow and ice management, route work, commercial driving, or similar equipment is preferred but not required. Training on our de-icing equipment and application procedures will be provided.
Loader Operators
Operate wheel loaders to clear, push, and stack snow at commercial properties. Previous loader or heavy-equipment operating experience is strongly preferred.
Pay
Pay is based on the position, relevant snow and ice management experience, equipment experience, availability, and demonstrated ability.
- Sidewalk Crew / Snowrator Operators: $25–$30 per hour
- De-Ice Truck Operators: $28–$35 per hour
- Loader Operators: $30–$40 per hour
Applicants with previous snow removal, de-icing, commercial driving, or heavy-equipment experience may qualify for the higher end of the applicable pay range.
What to Expect
This is seasonal, weather-dependent work. Hours are determined by snowfall and winter weather events, so there is no guaranteed weekly schedule.
Snow and ice events may require:
- Early mornings, overnight shifts, weekends, and holidays
- Working outdoors in snow, wind, cold, and changing winter conditions
- Extended shifts during larger or longer-duration storms
- Being available when a winter weather event occurs rather than working a set weekly schedule
Dependability is extremely important. Our team and customers are relying on you to show up on time and complete your assigned work.
What We Offer
- $25–$40/hour, depending on position and experience
- Opportunity to earn additional income during the winter season
- Quality, well-maintained equipment and tools
- Training for the right candidates
- A strong crew that works together to get properties cleared and treated efficiently and correctly
- Opportunities for experienced operators as well as people looking to learn snow and ice management
- Minnesota Earned Sick and Safe Time (ESST), as required by law
What We're Looking For
We're looking for people who:
- Are dependable and show up when they commit to working
- Have a positive attitude and work well as part of a team
- Are willing and able to work in Minnesota winter conditions
- Can safely work around vehicles, equipment, pedestrians, and other crew members
- Are willing to work irregular hours based on weather
- Can take direction and maintain a good pace throughout a snow or ice event
- Have reliable transportation to our Eagle Lake reporting location during winter weather
Previous snow and ice management experience is preferred but not required for all positions. We are willing to train the right people.
A valid driver's license and acceptable driving record are required.
Physical Requirements: Employees may assist with any of the snow removal duties listed above as needed. Must be able to perform assigned duties, with or without reasonable accommodation, including lifting up to 50 lbs., shoveling, bending, pushing, pulling, and working outdoors in winter conditions.
