The machine for a Bucyrus driveway

Cordless single-stage

Plenty falls in Bucyrus, about 3.0 tons a winter on this driveway, but it comes in shallow storms a small cordless machine can take in.

Before you buy, check the battery is rated to clear the whole driveway in one charge in the cold, or get a second battery. Batteries lose range below freezing.
