With the dumping of snow we’ve seen in the last few days, it seems more and more people are replacing their shovels with snow-blowers.
NR Motors has seen a spike in sales, selling 11 blowers in the last two days.
Marine Equipment Manager Gary Rawlings compared it to the last dumping we had a few years ago.
“It’s very similar, it’s just a little later in the season, but very similar in quantities dumped and how demand changes. As soon as you get a lot of snow people all of a sudden realize they don’t want to shovel any more.”
“We don’t have a whole lot of inventory left, we have about a dozen machines right now. I don’t expect to have any left by the end of the day.”
The amount of snow that has fallen in the last 48 hours is over 30 centimetres.
