wow..$180 an hour. Not saying that's too much,but here in south central Mn. I don't think there's too many graders working at more than $120, and most of them are way less than that. I grade & plow 43 miles of township roads with a Deere 772CH, 31 in my township & 12 for a neighboring half township. My township owns the grader and we charge $75 per hour for grading and $85 for plowing the neighboring township. We do not do any private grading or plowing, too much hassle and too many liability issues. The last winter there was any significant snowfall was '99-2000. If I get 50 hours a winter plowing, thats about it. We could actually use some of the snow thats been getting dumped on some other parts of the country, we're heading into the growing season with a severe subsoil moisture deficit.
