How booking works
Star Plow makes neighborhood snow plowing simple.
Join the free notify list on the booking page. You’ll get one email when booking opens for a storm.
When a storm is forecast, booking opens. Pick your address (Subdivision > Street > House number).
Choose your service: Sidewalk $20, Driveway $50, or Sidewalk + Driveway $60, per visit.
Your card is held (not charged) when you book. We only charge after your house is plowed, and your receipt is emailed. If the storm is too light, we cancel and release the hold.
Optional: check the box if you want a Star Plow helper (neighborhood kid, age 10+) to do your porch and walkway. You pay the helper in person.
That’s it. Bulk plowing only, snow pushed onto your property. Questions? Email [email protected].
Services & pricing
Bulk plowing with an ATV plow. One price per visit.
Bulk plowing: the plow moves the bulk of the snow, and some residual snow may remain. Snow is pushed onto the homeowner's property.
FAQ
What counts as a storm?
Snowfall that stacks up to at least 2 inches. That's when we offer plowing, and each plow is a single fee per property. If a storm brings less than 2 inches of snow, your booking is canceled and the hold on your card is released, so you pay nothing.
When do you plow?
Every booking is plowed after the snow stops, first thing in the morning.
Do I need to be home?
No. You don't need to be home.
What if a car is parked in my driveway?
We don't plow driveways with a car parked in them. We clear the entire driveway, not just around a car, and we won't risk hitting a vehicle with the blade. Please move cars before plow day.
Will the plow damage my concrete or landscaping?
Our plow rides on skid shoes that let the blade glide just above the surface, which helps protect your concrete and pavers. We make every effort to keep the blade off sprinklers, lawns, and landscaping, and marking your landscaping edges makes them even easier to avoid.
Will every bit of snow be gone?
We clear the bulk of the snow with the plow, so a thin layer may be left on the concrete. The next time the sun comes out, that thin layer melts and the concrete clears on its own.
Where does the snow go?
We push driveway snow sideways into your side yard, never into the street or onto the sidewalk. That's the proper way to do it per the Ada County Highway District (ACHD), which asks residents and contractors not to push snow into the street because it can block storm drains and create hazards for drivers and pedestrians.
Why are sidewalks done first?
Clearing sidewalks first is the most efficient way to work the neighborhood. Everyone gets safe walkways fast, and then we move on to driveways.
Do you clear the berm the city plow leaves?
Yes, upon request, if time permits.
What if it keeps snowing after you plow?
Each plow is a separate visit and a separate charge.
Do you clear walkways to the front door, porches, or steps?
We leave those for our neighborhood helpers, local kids who want to earn some money. When you book, check the box to have a helper do your porch and walkway. Kids sign up on our Helpers page, Star Plow approves each one, and after a storm they pick homes from paid Star Plow bookings in their own subdivision. You pay the helper in person.
What areas do you serve?
Trident Ridge, Greendale Grove North, and Collina Vista.
Can I sign up for a per-visit subscription?

Yes.
