It’s a good idea, but (serious answer)
– Some folk don’t have a shovel. I have a little fold up one in the back of a car, but it’s not much use if
– It snows overnight or during the day then freezes solid. I remember either last year or the year before trying to clear frozen snow (at the earliest possible opportunity) with a borrowed shovel and giving up as I was ruining the shovel and making no difference.
That said, hopefully by the time we next have snowmageddon I’ll be self employed and working from home, so I probably will be out clearing. But I’m the type of person who puts everyone’s bins away and even sometimes washes neighbours cars, so I might be a bit unusual.
