As I'm writing this, it's mid July and I'm in Texas. If it's snowing here to the point that it must be removed, it's safe to say the world is ending and 2020 has completely obliterated any hope for the future and I shovel TX snow now. 1shovel + salt.

I lived in South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia so I’m used to the snow and will be willing to shovel the snow out for you when winter comes.

Frequently asked questions about sidewalk salting in Austin

Salt becomes less effective when the temperature drops below 15 degrees Fahrenheit. For optimal snow removal, tackle it in the morning on a sunny day. The sun will naturally melt any remaining snow on your concrete walkways and paths.

The best time to apply salt is after you've shoveled snow. If you began shoveling before the snowfall stopped, putting down salt after clearing the snow can help prevent any additional accumulation on your walkways.

As a general guideline, a coffee mug filled with salt is sufficient to cover a 20-foot driveway or 10 sidewalk squares. For effective coverage, leave plenty of space beteween salt granules.
