When it’s frigid and blustery, the last thing you want to be doing is shoveling snow for hours on end. But rushing to clear pathways can result in damage to your home, yard, or self. In fact, about 11,500 injuries related to snow shoveling occur each year, according to a study by the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Children’s Hospital in Ohio.
Whether you choose to remove snow with a shovel, snowblower, or even a snow broom, avoid injury and clear winter weather more efficiently by avoiding these common mistakes.
