When winter hits the American Midwest, snow has to be cleared from thousands of driveways and sidewalks every day. One Michigan company is hiring seasonal workers from abroad to do exactly that. Victory Lawnscape LLC has an ACTIVE job order on the U.S. Department of Labor's official SeasonalJobs.dol.gov site for 15 Snow Removal Laborers in Shelby Township, Michigan, paying $20.17 per hour. The order was posted on 27 October 2026 and the season runs from 15 January to 15 March 2027.
This is an entry-level job with no experience required, which makes it a good first step for workers new to the H-2B program.

What the Work Involves
According to the DOL listing, the company clears snow at residential homes: driveways, walkways and city sidewalks only, with no parking lot or road work. Snow is removed by hand shoveling and snow blowers, not with plough trucks. Workers also chip ice, spread salt and apply salt treatments, maintain snow and ice equipment, and do property clean-ups such as trimming, blowing and raking with hand tools.
Requirements
- Able to lift and carry 50 lbs (about 23 kg) when needed
- Willing to work outdoors in cold, snow and ice
- Available for weekend work when the weather requires it
- A post-hire E-Verify employment eligibility check (done for both foreign and U.S. workers)
Is This Free Visa Sponsorship?
Yes, under the H-2B rules. The H-2B regulations (20 CFR 655.20) require the employer to pay or reimburse visa and visa processing fees in the first workweek, and they ban recruitment fees charged to workers by the employer or any recruiter it uses. Inbound travel costs are reimbursed once you complete half of the season, and return travel is paid if you finish the season or are dismissed early.
H-2B visas are normally only for citizens of countries on the U.S. government's yearly H-2B eligible countries list, so check that list first. You will also need a visa interview at a U.S. embassy or consulate in your country. The DOL page does not mention housing, so read the full job order for those details.
How to Apply
- Step 1: Read the official listing and job order: https://seasonaljobs.dol.gov/jobs/H-400-26290-307386
- Step 2: Apply by email to hiring@victorylawn.com, the address shown by the DOL. The listing also names www.mitalent.org, Michigan's state job portal.
- Step 3: In a short English email, include your full name, country, phone or WhatsApp number, any outdoor or physical work experience, and confirm you can work from 15 January to 15 March 2027.
- Step 4: Attach a simple CV and be ready for a phone or video interview.
Tips to Stand Out
- Show outdoor work experience. Farm, construction, landscaping or loading work all show you can handle physical jobs.
- Mention cold-weather experience, if you have worked in mountains or cold regions.
- Be reliable. Snow work starts early and depends on the weather, so employers value punctual, flexible workers.
- Prepare warm clothing. Michigan winters often drop well below freezing.
Scam Warning
Never pay anyone for this job or for an H-2B visa. Recruitment fees are illegal under H-2B rules, and visa fees are the employer's cost. Only use the email address on the official DOL page. If someone on Facebook or WhatsApp asks for a "processing fee" for a USA snow job, it is a scam.
