[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks everyone!

We don't want to overcharge. Several are elderly or retired neighbors. But I don't want him to undercharge either. It is a lot of snow and will be a lot more work than a normal snowstorm.

What do you all think of $10.00 per 6" of snow? Our neighborhood has primarily single car driveways.[/quote]

Wow, money grab.  I am glad I do not live in your neighborhood.  We have one elderly woman on our block and everyone pitches in to shovel for her.  No one would ever accept pay as we'd hope someone would do it for us.[/quote]

I would ask my kids to do it for free, as I help our neighbors when they are in need, but understand if your kid doesn't want to (no judgment here).  What would your $10 per 6" come to about?[/quote]

And if I were in my 60s and asked to hire a neighbor kid for lawn service, snow removal, dog waking or whatever, I would insist upon paying to help teach tue child the value of hard work, and honest work for honest pay.[/quote]
