What Are The Three Types Of Shovels?
There are three primary types of shovels, each designed for specific tasks:
Digging Shovel: This type of shovel typically features a curved, pointed blade and a long handle, making it ideal for digging into soil, breaking up hard ground, and moving loose materials like sand or gravel. The pointed tip helps penetrate the ground more easily.
Trenching Shovel: Trenching shovels have a narrow, elongated blade that is perfect for digging trenches, creating drainage channels, or laying pipes. The straight, sharp edges of the blade help in cutting through soil and roots cleanly.
Scoop Shovel: Scoop shovels are designed with a large, flat blade that can hold a substantial amount of loose material such as coal, gravel, snow, or grain. They usually have a short handle for better leverage and control when scooping and moving heavy or bulky materials.
