Plow Me Out app allows Atlantic Canadians to clear driveways from couch

Just in time for snow season a new on-demand snow removal service will allow Atlantic Canadians to clear their driveways from their couch.

Sean Griffith is launching an Uber-like snow removal service in the coming weeks in Moncton, Saint John, and Halifax, with more communities being added later this winter.

Griffith says people using the service will create an account on their website, or through the Plow Me Out app, then answer a few questions about their driveway, and a quote will be rendered.

Once the snow clearing is requested, a notification goes out to an array of snow contractors in the area.
