I have to do some of each. My driveway is 1/10th of a mile long, but it winds through some woods. I can only push the snow to the right. Then I have to turn the blade around and push the "windrow" it backwards into piles in the trees in some predetermined areas that are cleared just for that. If I don't pile my windrows, the driveway will close up way before spring.
I have a big circle drive/parking area/polebarn apron that also has to get cleared. That gets done with a combination of backing up and pulling forward - way too much backing up, but there is no other way, unfortunately. It's all gotta be pushed into a pile, eventually.
This picture was taken after only one or two snows. That pile in the background gets about twice as high and the surface area is bigger than my house.
Every year I push my first snow piles a little further back into the yard. And every year, I end up with nowhere to push snow by spring. I'm pushing it ALL the way back this winter.
