I've been doing both my neighbors for free - for over 10 years now. Snowblowing and snowplowing. I've never felt right charging and only do it when the snow gets so deep - a plow truck can't get through. I'll add they are both in their 90s.
Dairy farmer down the road from me has a big 4WD Deere tractor (100 horse plus), rear snowblower and a heated cab. He goes all over town helping people out during the worse storms - and he's a sucker just like me. He's never charged anyone a dime.
