Unfortunately, I don't have a snowblower. I don't really mind, because I can use the exercise! So today I spent 90+ minutes shoveling 6" deep snow from my driveway.
I live on a very busy street, and hundreds of cars and trucks zip by my house all day long. There must have been at least half a dozen pick-up trucks with snowplows attached pass me as I worked my butt off cleaned my drive. One passenger even made eye contact with me, at 35mph.
And did anyone stop and offer me their services? Nope. But what a great idea it would be if even one of those guys had taken down my address - and the addresses of all the other hardy souls in Northeast Ohio out there shoveling today - and maybe send a coupon for a % off our first plowing. And they should definitely contact us next Fall, before the Lake Erie snow machine turns back on.
As I said, I don't mind the physical activity, but there are days when I need to get out NOW, and don't have 90 minutes to shovel. Not to mention the time to bundle up, un-bundle, and make myself presentable again. So I just might hire someone to help me, if I knew who to call.
Any snowplowers out there??
