Howard Lake approves purchase of snowpusher

HOWARD LAKE, MN – Howard Lake City Council approved a purchase Tuesday that will allow staff to remove snow more quickly and efficiently

The 12-foot-wide high-volume snowpusher sold by Quality Welding Services of Suamico, WI, will have nearly double the six or seven cubic yard capacity of the city’s current snow bucket, Tim Kosek, building and grounds/street superintendent said. It pushes snow straight ahead, which helps to eliminate windrows

The end-of-season clearance price of the snowpusher is $3,595 ($1,000 discount from the regular price), plus $900 for a quick-attach mounting system, and $290 for freight.
