“Just curious what the best way to plow heavy wet snow? Seems like this stuff don’t want to push easy, for any distance. I have to keep stopping backing up and ramming through 1/2 the pile in front of the blade, then going back over what was left.” – 2dogs2/Member on Plowsite

Adam and his team are a fictional snow plowing company, but many of the experiences, problems, snow plow solutions, and, yes, headaches are real. Who knows, if you read between the lines, you might get a glimpse of how the KAGE® skid steer plow system was born!
The first question any reputable, educated, disciplined landscape contractor or property manager would ask one of our sales reps is, “Why should I buy a walk-behind mower, much less a sulky like the Wheel Kaddy?” Fair enough.
I would respond, “How much does the health and well-being of your lawn crew matter to you? If I can deliver a product that allows your operators to not only ride rather than walk, but ride comfortably for 8-10 hours a day, is this a product you would consider investing in?”
Small articulated loaders are carving a dent into the skid steer market. More and more contractors are finding that the compact wheel loader is a suitable, and sometimes better option to buy or rent than a skid steer loader. Snow removal contractors are no exception. There is no perfect formula when you are trying to decide between the two, but we are going to point out some of the important considerations that may be part of your decision.

The Advantage of a Well-built Snow Plow MoldboardFor many generations, snow plow moldboards were designed in a similar way – a curved piece of steel with thin ribbing for support at the back of the plow. Enter the 21st century, snow plow crews are now using heavy equipment like skid steers, tractors, wheel loaders and more to take on the larger more demanding snow sites.
