So we’ve all done it. Forecast calls for big time snow and we race out to grab a “snow shovel.”
Every snow shovel I have ever owned has been terrible at…well…shoveling snow.
Well I’ve found the best snow shovel ever—a “grain scoop”. Several companies make them including Ames True Temper (that’s what mine is) and Vigoro; they’re available in most stores.
You can get an aluminum scoop, though I’ve had excellent luck with the plastic. You can use the tool like a plow and shove snow out of the way. Or you can use it like a dirt shovel to scoop-and-throw the snow, say off stairs or a sidewalk.
I also use the shovel in my home improvement projects, too. It’s ideal for scooping big messes into the trash can. You can see the kinds of messes I use it for in the photo—not exactly dust bunnies!
This snow king doubles as the best dustpan ever. No kidding. This is no snow job.
