You need to toughen the fuck up you fucking cupcake. Holy shit, the whining in this thread...

I live in the sticks of NH on the outside of a 90 degree corner, wide sweep but is pinched by my lawn coming toward my driveway - lawn is about 16" higher than the road at that point and only about a 2' shoulder. So you wanna talk about a bank? (That's the actual term, by the way.)

Worst I ever see might have been this year, when we got a 2'+ storm back in December. Bank was 8 or 10 feet deep, and pushing 5 feet tall (honey is all of 5'4", and could barely see over, so...).

This normally wouldn't be a problem - I've got a 1-ton Dodge with a 9' Fisher on the front, and with half a load a wood in the dump I could damn near push a house off their foundation.

But, I had blown the front driveshaft at honey's house toward the end of the storm, and needdd to get into my yard to get the spare I had. So, no plow and needed to shovel that bastid.

Now granted, there was two of us there, but it wasn't exactly like there was two of us doing an equitable amount of shoveling. But, she certainly tries and works as hard as she can. Still, we had enough cleared in about 20 minutes to pull honey's truck the yard.

Pretty sure honey would out shovel you without breaking a sweat. Either move somewhere that you don't have to deal with it or hire someone who knows what they're doing and doesn't cry about doing manual labor.

Fuck, this thread is 10 ply...

So you find the snow walls annoying too?

I'm pissed

Is on street parking available? Park on the curb directly in front of the driveway so the plow has to swing around wide.

Doesn't that make it worse? Wouldn't that be exactly the same as before, except nw he's got to shovel an extra 6 feet past his driveway?

Exactly, I thought of this when he posted it and I saw it live, when I went back to Long Island to clean up the snow. It just gives you more to shovel.

It works, and it’s a common technique where I live, an area that averages over 100” of snow a year.

When the plow swings around your vehicle it’s still moving snow but it doesn’t absolutely plug the end of your already shoveled driveway with dense snow that’s peeling right off the curve of the plow. Gives it room to spread out.

Still may have to dig your vehicle out but it doesn’t fill the end of your driveway like a dam.

It sucks to finish blowing the driveway and then just as you finish the truck comes by and you now have 2.5 feet of snow in a wall to take care of. Anything I can do to help limit the wall? If it happens at night while sleeping it turns into an ice wall which sucks even more.

So you shovel out your now ployed in car instead of your driveway, great!

At my Upstate house there is no parking on the roads all winter because of snow removal. If you tried you move up here, first thing the plowdriver would be blasting on his airhorn at 4 am. Then you'd be plowed in so bad, you wouldn't get it out until spring.
