What to put on a snow removal receipt
Name the storms or the months it covers
"Plowing, 12 and 14 Jan" or "Seasonal contract, December payment" tells the customer, and you, which charges the money settled.
Record each installment against the contract
A seasonal customer pays in installments. Put the month or the installment number in the description so the receipts add up to the whole season.
Note how they paid
Cash and check are common in snow work and leave no other trace. Put the method, and the check number if there is one, in the Notes box.
Give property managers one receipt per site
Managers usually need to match a payment to a property for their own books. Put the property address in the line description.

Questions about snow removal receipts
Do I need to give a receipt for a cash payment?
It is a good idea, because it is your record and the customer's that the payment was made. Whether one is required depends on the rules where you work, so check them.
Can I give a receipt for each payment on a seasonal contract?
Yes, one per payment. Say in the line which month or installment it covers, so the customer can see how much of the season is paid.
What is the difference between a receipt and a paid invoice?
A paid invoice is the invoice itself, marked as paid. A receipt is a separate document confirming the payment. Either works, and many contractors use a receipt when the customer pays in cash or by check.
Should a snow removal receipt show sales tax?
It depends on your state and on what was sold. Check with your state's tax agency or your accountant. This generator doesn't calculate tax, so add it as its own line if you charged it.
