Do you dread having to spend hours shoveling snow from your yard? The thought of it makes you cold! You're not the only one! But there is a way and you can use it to clear the snow from your property - without unnecessary effort and frozen hands.
How do you effectively clear snow from properties and driveways?
Every morning when we get behind the wheel, we are keen to get out of the property safely and easily - and this requires a well-snowed driveway and paths. Even a small layer of ice or snow can cause your wheels to slip and your car to get stuck, especially in the case of heavy rain or freezing rain. Therefore, regularly clearing the snow from the driveway is key to leaving the house safely, avoiding getting buried or having to do complicated manoeuvring.
Snow shovels to tackle snow on properties and driveways
Snowblowers are the perfect tool for people who have yards, pavements or driveways to clear of snow. They are ideal for property owners who need equipment that is easy to use and effective in removing snow from narrow paths. Snowblowers are divided into two basic types: cordless and diesel.
Lightweight cordless snowblowers for everyday use
Cordless snowblowers are lighter than petrol snowblowers and operate more quietly. A great example is the AL-KO ST 4048 Energy Flex - ideal for smaller areas and everyday use.
If you need a really small tool that can cope with everyday work but won't take up much space in the garage, there really is no better option than the Stiga ST 300 AE 2.0 Ah. Have you ever seen a cordless snow shovel? That's exactly what Stiga is! They are certainly easy to use, fuel-free, don't need to be plugged in and provide clean and light work.
Electric snowblowers are greener and simpler to use, but sometimes their power may not be sufficient in very thick wet snow.
Petrol snowblowers to tackle a thick layer of snow on your property!
Removal of heavy and wet snow can be handled by petrol snowblowers such as the MTD Smart M 61 or the Stiga ST 3256 P. They offer more power and are ideal for more demanding tasks. They are perfect for larger driveways and properties where snow needs to be removed quickly and efficiently.
Also worthy of consideration is the MTD Smart ME 61 model equipped with a 4-stroke MTD SnowThorX top-valve engine giving 5.3 hp. The machine has its own drive and offers 6 forward gears and 2 reverse gears. This allows us to match the speed of our work to the conditions. Snow clearing will also be facilitated by tyres with a thick X-shaped tread adapted to difficult conditions, guaranteeing good grip on snowy and slippery ground even in difficult terrain.
Both petrol and electric snowblowers offer convenience, speed and ease of storage. They can be manoeuvred between tight alleys with ease. This is ideal for homeowners and small businesses that need to clear snow from smaller spaces on a regular basis.
What about large properties?
When you're dealing with large properties, larger pavements, car parks or longer paths, it's worth investing in a mini tractor with a snow plough such as the LS Tractor XJ25. Such tractors are not only powerful but also versatile - you can use them all year round, whether you're mowing grass in summer or clearing snow in winter. You can choose a set with just the plough or additionally with a salt or sand spreader. Thanks to its compact size and manoeuvrability, it is easy to manoeuvre between paths and you don't need any effort to set it in motion.
When you choose a mini tractor with plough, you gain many benefits:
- Speed and efficiency - a plough mounted on a mini tractor quickly removes even large amounts of snow, significantly reducing working time compared to traditional snowblowers.
- Versatility - mini tractors, such as LS Tractor models, can be easily converted from a mower to a snow clearing machine by fitting a plough and a salt or sand spreader.
- Ergonomics - these tractors are comfortable to operate and cabs equipped with heating make work more enjoyable even on cold days.
Mini tractors with ploughs are ideal for owners of larger properties, companies, public institutions and estate managers who need to keep large areas tidy.
Tools for clearing snow from the property - what do you need to know?
Whether you choose a snowblower or a mini snowplough tractor, there are a few key aspects to consider:
- The right power and size - when choosing equipment, match its power and size to the area you need to clear snow. A mini tractor can handle large and demanding yards and driveways, while a petrol snowblower can handle smaller spaces.
- Ease of use - make sure the tool you choose is easy to use, with components that can be easily assembled and disassembled, and replaced if necessary
- Storage - snowblowers and mini tractors require adequate storage space. If you have limited space, look out for compact models.
Clearing snow from the property can be easy!
Shovelling snow is an unavoidable part of winter, but with the right tools it can become simpler and more efficient. Depending on your needs, you can choose a snowblower for smaller tasks or a mini tractor with snow plough for larger areas. It's worth investing in equipment that will not only cut down on work time, but also keep you comfortable and safe during the winter months.
