A method of removing snow by utilizing a conveyor unit configured to facilitate depositing of snow into a sewer system. The conveyor unit is fit on or within the manhole sewer openings from which the covers have been removed. The conveyor units comprise powered augers mounted within a snow receiving housing having hoppers from which snow is conveyed into the manhole openings. In a first version, the conveyor housing is directly received over the manhole opening, while in a second version, the hopper is offset from the manhole opening and snow is conveyed into the sewer system via a conduit extending from the hopper and into the manhole opening.
