Bigfoot Snow Shovels
Snow Tools for All Snow Tasks

Bigfoot snow shovels is a brand of snow tools manufactured by Emsco Group. So if you’re having trouble finding them, try searching for Emsco Group or Cavex snow tools, another Emsco Group brand that specializes in lawn and garden tools, while the Bigfoot brand specializes in snow products.

Bigfoot and Cavex are only two of the brands manufactured by Emsco Group, which is also the name behind ESP snowboards, Hose Hider hose reels, Tidee American cleaning aids, ECP commercial cleaning products, and so on.

The Emsco Group, which has been in the manufacturing market since the 1800s, started out by manufacturing small-scale cleaning items before eventually moving on to large-scale cleaning equipment.

The Bigfoot Snow Shovel Family

Bigfoot is Emsco Group’s brand of snow shovels, snow brushes, and snow scrapers. Their collection is quite huge. Bigfoot is the brand behind several snow tools collections, such as the Highlander series, the Lifetime Handle series, the Northern Lites series, and so on. Their most popular models are the poly and metal combination snow tools as well as the collapsible shovels that are great for traveling. If you want some more specific reviews, here are the best three from Bigfoot.

#1 Bigfoot Poly Snow Shovel 1199

One of the most popular and most widely available Bigfoot snow shovels is the Bigfoot Poly Snow Shovel model 1199. It has a blade size of 17 7/8 inches x 13 inches. Due to the manual nature of these shovels, there are no moving parts that can malfunction or get worn. Thus, they usually last long, as long as you look for durably made ones. That’s exactly what the Bigfoot Poly Shovel is. It is built for moving lots of snow and can last for several years with proper use and maintenance. The poly construction of the shovel makes it unique in the market. The idea is to make the shovel light to hold and carry despite heavy snow loads. The poly material is also useful for resisting snow that sometimes tend to stick to the blade’s surface. This model retails between $15 and $20. As a bonus, Bigfoot even ships this shovel in a package carton that doubles as a decorative display.

#2 Bigfoot SnowDozer Poly Shovel/Pusher/Scoop 1197

If you prefer a snow tool with a better scooping ability, check out the Bigfoot SnowDozer, a shovel that also serves as a snow pusher and a scoop. Users find it more effective because of its greater holding capacity, which is similar to that of a scoop. As a pusher, on the other hand, it features a curved blade. But despite all these functions, it makes sure every task is as easy as if you were using an ordinary shovel.

To make life easier, Bigfoot snow shovels with poly construction are lightweight and are resistant to sticky snow, and as one of the more expensive poly models, the Bigfoot 1197 model is also extra comfortable to use thanks to the D-grip handle. This is a light and durable model that can be used for all your snow removal needs. It currently retails at $30.

#3 Bigfoot Collapsible Snow Shovel

Having to clear snow off your backyard is bad enough, but at least you’ve got your tools with you. But what if you get stranded while driving your car due to snow? That’s just one of the many scenarios in which a lightweight, compact, and collapsible shovel will come in handy.

The Emsco Group makes sure that Bigfoot snow shovels provides solutions to all snow removal needs, even those that occur in the middle of nowhere. So if you don’t want to get stuck somewhere due to impassable snow, the Bigfoot Collapsible Shovel is a must-have for you.

Selling for less than $30, this handy shovel has a handle that collapses so you can store the item in the trunk of your car and take it anywhere with you, just in case a snow emergency comes up. But if you need it, the handle or pole extends to up to 36 inches, which means it can easily match your height. Bearing the classic poly construction of the most popular Bigfoot snow shovels, this collapsible shovel is also lightweight, making storage even easier.

The poly material is also extra durable and is perfect for snow removal because it does not warp, crack, or rust even when exposed to low temperatures and wetness. It also resists sticky snow, so you won’t have a hard time taking care of it. The Bigfoot Collapsible Shovel comes with snap-lock connectors for the metal shaft as well as an easy to use slide control for when you need to collapse the tool.
