Although Christmas time invites a lot of fun and laughter for many people, it is also the time for snow. Snow can be a pain when trying to remove it from your cars before work, or when shovelling it off of your driveway. Luckily, you have these snow removal tips for the following season.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>If you\u2019re expecting a lot of snow, shovel often so that you\u2019re not having trouble shovelling a lot of heavy snow.<\/li>\n<li>Keep your phone with you when shovelling in case of an emergency.<\/li>\n<li>To clear ice from car windows pour lukewarm water over them. Use a wiper to then remove the runoff.<\/li>\n<li>Use rubbing alcohol to get rid of ice on windows. This will also help to defog them.<\/li>\n<li>Keep your car in your garage if you have one. If not, you can cover your vehicle with a tarp.<\/li>\n<li>Consider using snowmelt mats on the pathway to your front door to keep it free of slippery ice and snow.<\/li>\n<li>Get rid of snow by building snowmen with your family. This is a fun and easy way to not only get rid of snow but to also decorate your front yard!<\/li>\n<li>Use a good shovel. Shovelling snow with a bad shovel won\u2019t help you get rid of snow efficiently, and you might even break your back in the process.<\/li>\n<li>If you live in a place that has a lot of snowfall (like Canada!), consider investing in a snowblower. This will make your job a little bit easier every Winter.<\/li>\n<li>Use a leaf blower to get rid of light, fluffy snow.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Get rid of snow by building snowmen with your family.
