SNOW REMOVAL EQUIPMENT: MACHINES & TOOLS

What is the best way to clear snow?

There are a variety of snow removal tools and techniques you can use to clear snow off driveways, sidewalks, and pathways. A great tip to consider when removing snow is to clear once while it’s still falling and again after the snowfall stops.

Snowblowers are useful investments for heavy snowfalls and when you need to clear large areas. For more heavy-duty snow removal, you can purchase a snowplow mount for your truck or ATV. When it comes to everyday snow removal, using a snow shovel may be all you need.

When preventing and tackling ice and snow buildup, ice melters are useful for preventing slips and falls. They help stop ice and snow from sticking to the ground and speed up melting on walkways, steps, and more. Some are designed to be pet-friendly or eco-friendly. You can also use an ice chopper to manually break up ice.

What machine is used to remove snow?

If you’re dealing with heavier snow, snowplows are effective snow removal machines that take some of the manual labour out of snow removal. Snowplows push or relocate large amounts of snow and can be controlled from the comfort of your vehicle.

How do I choose a snowblower?

When choosing a snowblower, the most important factor is the size you need. Size will depend on how big your driveway is, the height of the snow, and the snow type – whether light and fluffy or wet and heavy.
