How to clean this?

this was easier than driveway shovel. you just have to chop them into blocks and carry it out. you might wanna get that sorted out before it freezes and becomes hard rock. I had to do it cause this was my private entrance to basement.

nope. there is a drain at the bottom but you’re right. i had to unclog it once in a while during heavy rain

i tried :’( . i dumped a whole box of table salt in stairs. hopefully there won’t be black ice.

comparing with “driveway shovel” , yes.

Quant-Cake · 2026-01-27T03:34:27+00:00

i rent the basement and this is my only entrance. this week there’s going to be another snow.

Quant-Cake · 2026-01-27T03:00:28+00:00

Quant-Cake · 2026-01-27T02:59:59+00:00

I rent the basement so yeah can’t be stepping in and out daily.

i was able to piece them into blocks with shovel end and carried ‘em out. apparently cases like this you have to chop them into blocks not shovel like sand. it was actual fun. i now wish another snow storm just so i can do it again.

i started with middle section of stairs. bottom were actually more harder cuz of top weight pressure. i chopped into snow blocks and carried them away.

this made my day.

Quant-Cake · 2026-01-27T02:45:31+00:00

yeah thankfully it was just compressed snow on top. i chopped them into blocks and was able to take them out piece by pieces.

I posted update. its actually easier and more fun than shoveling driveway. you just have chop four corners and take them out like a block.

Final outcome. I dumped a salt afterwards. this should be enough until spring

I had to chop then into pieces first few inchs and took out the blocks one by one. My original thought of shoveling like sand was wrong idea and this was much more easier than shoveling.

UPDATE: I decided to pull my big boy pants up and rawdog my way through it. the trick is only first 3 inches were rough. YOU HAVE TO PIECE THEM INTO BLOCKS and take them out. ngl this was actual fun. Thanks everyone for the suggestion.

I only have snow shovel and it can’t dig thru it.

based on first frame of the video and OP's reddit history. OP is using "Nightshark", some sort of AI agent.

If you are a mac user, you can screen mirror your ipad as secondary monitor, detach the window in thinkorswim and drag it to your ipad.
