If you are in the snow removal business, one of the most efficient ways to clear snow is with a skid loader snow bucket. Having a snow bucket allows you to move quite a bit more snow than a regular bucket. Using a skid loader equipped with a skid loader snow bucket will almost cut your time in half. Most skid loader snow buckets are 84″ wide and over. Having a snow bucket that is capable of removing over a cubic yard of snow in one scoop, will definitely make for a quick plow. If you are using a skid loader snow bucket to plow snow, the most efficient use is made in a large open parking lot area. If you try to use a skid loader snow bucket on a small area, it may not be as efficient. Snow removal of home owners associations and apartment complexes usually works best with a smaller bucket. Having a smaller bucket allows you to clean between parked cars more easily. Keep in mind that when you are shopping for a skid loader snow bucket, you can choose a bucket that scoops or a blade that pushes. Blades that push snow have their own benefits compared to that of a bucket. You will have to weigh the pros and cons of each product before you invest in the equipment.
