We in America have pickup trucks on to which you can put a snowplow to clear your driveway if it snows. In Europe they don't have as many pickups, so how do they keep a reasonably long driveway clear?
Do they all hire a guy with a commercial truck?
*note: I'm not asking about commercial highway trucks*

Usually a shovel of some kind. But since this is oppo:
Either one of these:
Or one of these:
Depending of the driveway, of course.

Could very well be. I just googled 'Spanish driveway' and picked one that looked nice. I wans't going to put too much effort into the gag.

The obvious Unimog or Pinzgauer:
But most of our driveways are not long enough to buy one specifically for this reason. Too bad.

Some of us in Europe are lucky enough to rarely see snow more than once or twice a year so the question hardly arises!
Otherwise Poles.

What about a small/medium parking lot? What does a shopowner use for snow removal?

It depends on where in Europe you live. Over here (Netherlands) it is snowing maybe one week a year so we don't use power-tools a lot. Shop-owners just have the snow removed, don't know anyone with their own removal-tool.
That should be different in places like Scandinavia. Austria/Switzerland perhaps although most of the urbanisation there is concentraded so no need for your own tool. Hiring a local guy with a truck is sufficient I suppose.

If one were to hire a local guy with a truck what would the truck be? Would it have a plow similar to what we're used to here in the States?

It would probably be a Unimog. You never can go wrong with a Unimog:
Or a John Deere when in Countryside:

South Poles, I assume. There's more snow down there.

The upside of being taxed into tiny crapboxes that can't plow, is that you're kept from affording houses with driveways that need plowing.
