plow truck
Road snow remover
A plow truck is a truck equipped with a blade for clearing snow from roads, parking lots, and driveways.
The blade mounts to the front and angles to push snow to one side.
In northern climates, plow trucks are essential winter infrastructure: The plow trucks were out all night during the storm.
Many are municipal vehicles; others belong to private contractors or homeowners with pickup trucks.
