Hey Dave, thanks for reaching out. The Meyer HomePlow # ME28FR has an electric lift motor, but Meyer does not publish a specific weight capacity for how many pounds of snow the motor can lift, since it isn't designed for lifting a full load of snow for stacking. You can push snow into piles, but this residential plow isn't intended for high snow stacking like a commercial hydraulic plow.

According to Meyer, the HomePlow is designed to handle approximately 8"–10" of snowfall, depending on the snow's weight, moisture content, and the vehicle you're using. The plow itself weighs approximately 241 lbs and has a 22" tall blade.

Are you mainly looking to clear a driveway, or are you hoping to build taller snow piles to save space?

Mostly just push it out the way but I am limited for space if we get 8-10 inches of snow by the end of the year we could run into issues

@Dave Yea as long as you stay on top of it and don't let the snow stack up too high you'll be good to go. Especially if it's that really cold dry snow.
