Getting stuck in the ice or snow is an issue that occurs for many people every winter. However, there are a few things you can keep handy to help with these slippery situations. Each has their merits and ideal ways to apply them and are relatively inexpensive. Having them on hand and ready can ultimately save far more money by saving you the expense of a tow service.
Salt, sand and kitty litter are convenient things to have with you when driving in the winter as well as keeping your driveway from becoming a slippery nightmare. Salt works ideally when applied first by melting the ice, but it is going to dissolve into the water that gets created.
Applying a good layer of sand will give traction on just about any surface and will keep your driveway in good condition throughout the winter. Kitty litter gets sticky when wet so you shouldn't spread it over your driveway, instead use it only when you get your vehicle stuck.
