HOW SHOVELER ROUTE WORKS

Navigating, Documenting, & Getting Paid

 

1. How Routes Work
College students accept routes in the Snow Scholars app (make sure you have recent app update). Start within 2 hours of route unlocking time, complete every home fully, and check in with homeowners. You are responsible for finishing your entire route.

2. Snow Scholars Standards
Shovel edge-to-edge, down to the surface. No salt/sand unless requested. Salt/sand is on homeowner doorstep. Pay may be deducted for incomplete work. Missing or abandoning a route may result in termination.

 

3. Tools, Pay & Requirements
Provide your own shovel/snowblower. Walking or a car may be needed. Pay is per home (higher with more snow), and initiated weekly on Mondays (delivered by Thursdays). Shovelers average $20–$60/hr when earning per home; snowblowers earn more. Independent contractor status.
