NorthLift™ Electric Snow Shoveler
You walk. It throws. Your back gets a break.
Early BFCM Sale · 50% off + free thermal gloves with every order
Shovelling hurts. Every scoop is a bend, a heavy lift and a twist, and that is what leaves your back sore and stiff for days after a storm. NorthLift does the lifting for you. Its spinning paddles scoop the snow and throw it clear, so you just walk forward. Click in the battery and go. No cord, no gas, no pull-start.
- Clears steps, walkways and driveways without heavy lifting
- Done sooner, with no stopping to lift and toss
- Handles heavy, wet snow
- Two handles for easy, upright steering
- Free thermal gloves with every order
How does NorthLift work?
Spinning paddles at the front scoop the snow as you walk forward and throw it clear of your path. Click in the battery, hold both handles, squeeze the trigger and walk. You never lift a heavy load.
What surfaces is it best suited for?
Steps, walkways, decks, patios and smaller driveways. It clears fresh snow and handles heavy, wet snow when you take narrower passes. For deep, packed drifts, a full-size blower is the better tool.

Not a shovel. Not a blower.
It's not your back. It's the lifting.
Every scoop with a regular shovel is a bend, a lift and a twist with a heavy load, over and over in the cold. NorthLift takes the lift out of the job. You walk forward and the paddles do the rest.


It throws, you guide
Spinning paddles pick up the snow and throw it clear. You never lift a heavy load.
Stand tall
The adjustable pole and second handle keep you upright instead of bent over a blade.
Done sooner
No stopping to lift and toss each scoop. Walk steady passes and you're finished before your coffee gets cold.

Honest answers
"I've tried gadgets like this before." Fair.
Here's what NorthLift does well, and where it isn't the right tool.
"Will it actually save my back?"
You walk it forward instead of lifting and twisting, which are the movements behind most shovelling strain.
"Can it handle heavy, wet snow?"
Yes. Take narrower passes and let the paddles chew through it. No more lifting shovels full of wet, heavy snow.
"Will the battery die halfway?"
Cold drains every battery. Charge it fully before the storm and keep the battery indoors between uses.
"Is it hard to put together?"
Attach the pole and handles, click in the battery, and you're ready. Instructions are in the box.
"I don't have room for a blower."
You don't need one. The pole folds down so NorthLift hangs on a hook or tucks into a closet.
"What if it's not for me?"

Questions
Frequently asked.
Will it replace my snow blower?
For steps, walkways, decks and smaller driveways, often yes. For long driveways after a big storm or deep, packed drifts, a full-size blower is still the better tool.
How long does a charge last?
Run time depends on snow depth, moisture and temperature. Charge it fully before a storm and store the battery indoors, since cold drains every battery faster.
Will it scratch my deck or pavers?
The paddles are made to sweep snow, not dig. On delicate surfaces, keep it level and avoid pressing down hard.
Can I use it on ice?
It moves snow, not ice. Clear the snow first, then salt or chip any ice underneath.
Is it safe for my heart?
NorthLift removes the lifting, but clearing snow is still physical work in the cold. If you have a heart condition, ask your doctor before any snow clearing.
