Our next door neighbor plowed our driveway all last winter and has started doing it again this winter. We have asked him how much money he wants but he insists he doesn't want anything and just does it to keep busy. DH and I just don't feel right about not giving him anything. We really should have given him something last year and I feel bad that we neglected to do that. This year I want to make sure we give him something. I'm just not sure what a reasonable amount would be.
Our driveway is small and like I said he lives right next door so it's not like he's travelling far to our house. However, he also plows our dirt road that we live on with (not including the neighbor who plows) 3 other houses. I don't think the other houses pay him at all either, but not sure. The dirt road is about 1/8 of a mile. So I guess we would want to pay for our portion of the dirt road as well as our driveway.
We were thinking a $50 gas card. Would that be enough?
