There are 3 basic types of snow shovels: standard, ergonomic and pusher. You can also choose between a heavy plastic or metal blade. Snow will not stick to a plastic blade and a metal blade is better in icy conditions. It's a good idea to have more than one type so you can switch them around depending on snow conditions and to reduce fatigue.

Use on an ice covered porch, sidewalk and driveway. The blade is typically 7" wide to allow precision when chopping, scraping and breaking through layers of tough ice. The blade is made from heavy duty steel so it can withstand forceful use. Blade can also be resharpened with a file or grinder so it will always have the best chopping power.

Roof-raking is a great way to clear snow off your roof. This can help to relieve the added weight of snow on your roof, especially on an overhang which is the weakest part of your roof. Removing snow from the roof will also aid in ice dam prevention by removing the source of the meltwater. Handles come in various lengths up to 20'.

The ultimate way to remove large amounts of snow fast and without much physical strain. Available in electric (corded or battery) and gas powered. Battery power is gaining popularity but gas powered machines have the ability to throw almost twice as much snow. Electric snow shovels are also available for more moderate snowfalls.

After removing snow by shovel or snow blower, an ice melter can break down the remaining ice into slush. The chemicals in ice melters can be bad for the surface of your driveway as well as the environment. A more eco-friendly solution is sand. It won't melt the ice but will provide surface traction. Sand is also better to use in extreme cold.
