How many times are you going to shovel your driveway and front steps with that broken snow shovel from 1995? Investing in one or two good shovels can cut down on the time it takes you to remove the snow from your property. Here’s what you should look for when shovel shopping:
Variations of Snow Shovels
- 18- to 25- inch shovel: For those with smaller properties, front porches, and back decks, opt for this shovel. This smaller shovel will allow you to scoop up snow quicker, with less stress on your lower back. Additionally, this shovel will be ideal for those with minimal storage space.
- 25- to 35- inch shovel: For those with large driveways, walkways, and patios, opt for the wider shovel. This model will allow you to push more snow at a faster rate (or scoop it if your back can handle the weight). In addition, this shovel will also be quite powerful — which will be excellent for the heaviest of snow mounds.
- Collapsible shovel: This shovel isn’t necessarily for your property, but it’s a great option to keep in your car. If you park your car on the street or somewhere away from home when it snows, you’ll have this handy shovel ready to dig your car out.
Consider the Size of the User
Depending on how small or big you are, will decide which material of shovel you should buy. Smaller people need to use lighter shovels made from viagra plastic, while larger people can use metal and fiberglass shovels as they can handle more weight. The larger person should also consider using the 25- to 35- inch snow shovel if they can handle it. This will allow you to shovel the snow quickly, compared to using the 18- to 25- inch shovels (even if the property is smaller).
No one likes to shovel snow, so if you want to tackle this chore more easily, purchase the right shovel that can handle the job.
