Consider Your Plowing Vehicle

First things first, you need to think about your plow vehicle. Consider the front gross axle weight rating (FGAWR) of your vehicle, which will help you determine your limit for the weight of the snowplow blade. The larger the blade, the heavier it will be and the higher FGAWR you will need to safely operate it. Commercial work calls for heavy-duty equipment, so you’ll likely need at least a ¾ ton truck with a FGAWR that can handle bigger tractor snow plows. Smaller projects that use smaller plowers can often get by with a half-ton truck.

Straight vs. V-Blade Plows

Next, you’ll need to figure out if you’ll be better off with a straight or V-blade snowplow. While both will get the job done, there are some key differences to help you choose. Straight blades are the most common choice due to their general applicability and low price tag. V-blades have multi-position capabilities, which enable you to turn them up in a scooping motion, which is more efficient when plowing heavy drifts. Professionals have more reason to consider a V-blade.

Steel vs. Poly Materials

Remember to think about what material is best for your snow plow blade. Stainless steel is popular since it’s resistant to corrosion, but keep in mind that it’s more prone to dents. They look great when they’re new, but a dented plow is going to be less effective. Mild steel is a nice alternative that promises superior durability while still being affordable. Poly material offers the slickest platform, so the snow won’t stick to the blade. It’s also resistant to dents, scratches, and corrosion. Poly material is often heavier than steel, so that’s something to think about as well.

Lighting and Control Systems

Having the right lighting and controls can make all the difference. After all, visibility is key during a storm or even in gray winter conditions. The standard dual-stud design may become loose and move around as you plow. When browsing headlight systems, you’ll want to aim for those with a two-piece clamp designed that keep the headlights secured. As for the control system, these tend to vary in complexity and functionality. Most operators want something that’s easy to use, but commercial operators will want a system that offers maximum functionality.
