Put me in the "shovel more often in really heavy snowfall" camp.
Although I'm also in the "shovel whenever I need to" camp. Working 12 hours shifts, it's before or after work, so prior to 7am on a weekend, or after 9pm on a weeknight is entirely likely. Not everyone has a 9-5, and I'm not going to drive over a foot of snow before I shovel.
However I have no idea how people find a shovel that noise-intrusive. Lawn mowers, snow blowers, fine, but I can barely hear my own driveway being shovelled (and the house is not that sound-proof).
Lastly, sleeping with ear-plugs and a white noise generator FTW. You could drive a backhoe through my front door and I'd likely sleep through it.
