Rent a garage space for the winter. Seriously, if you're physically unable to shovel the snow, you should either do this or line up someone to shovel for you as needed.
I am actually looking for a simpler way of getting my car out of the snow. My back is not up to the task, but I need my car!
As I nurse my back and hip, I look back to see if last night was a better time to at least clear the snow around the front of my car. I did at least drive the car back and forth in the soft snow, angling out to clear a path for me. I still had to dig out some snow today, with the help of a neighbor. At least tonight ,I am parked at an angle giving me a straight shot out of my parking space.
I am talking 6-12 inches of snowfall, and my car avoided most of it because of wind gusts. I am looking for an alternative to avoid having to shovel too much. I cant mess up my back more than it is. Maybe I can spread some loose gravel , sand, salt during that early snowfall, granting me traction when I use the car? a fancy shovel? any tricks?
6-12 inches of snow? Yeah you're going to need to shovel it out. Most cars can't drive through that much snow. If you can't go in reverse, then it might be time to rethink driving. Reverse is certainly a necessity!
