Piled snow is great for turning your yard into a winter wonderland, but when you begin to worry about buried landscaping or need to leave the house, it can become a burden. Snow removal isn’t easy work, especially when temperatures continue to drop. Luckily, there are plenty of tried-and-true removal tips you can try, as well as professional services if you want the best results for the job.

Snow Removal Tips

1. Dig Out Summer Appliances

If you’re not interested in investing a snow blower, there are still plenty of tools you can use to get the same results. While spring and summer may be far away, landscaping equipment like a leaf blower is perfect for blowing loose snow from your porch, landscaping and hardscapes, car, driveway, and more. You can also get your wet/dry vac to relocate snow without all of the heavy lifting.

2. Put Household Items to Use

You’ll be surprised to find that you already have many effective deicers in at home. Basic table salt is one of the most proven methods, as well as salty liquids like pickle juice. Rubbing alcohol is perfect for removing ice from windows, and clear alcohol like gin will loosen up frozen surfaces. If you need to create traction while you work, pour out some kitty litter.

3. Hire the Pros

If you want the job done quickly and correctly, reach out to professionals. They’ll bring industry-leading equipment to efficiently remove snow and can also use safe deicing agents to keep it from building up again. They’ll also know how to work safely around landscaping and other installations so that nothing is damaged in the process. You’ll ultimately save time and money while enjoying the best results.
