It was too stressful for me to try to get it all cleared before families arrive; it can take me hours. I knew I'd never be able to manage it, so I decided it was well worth it to hire a plow service. (They snow blow/shovel sidewalks, too, and even a path to my chicken coop, though I didn't ask them to do that last.) It's a big expense, but makes a huge difference for my sanity.
