This #2 coal scoop with a long wood handle is the tool crews reach for when there is ballast, gravel, or loose tear-off debris to move and a square shovel will not hold enough. The round scoop blade captures and holds material that would slide off a flat blade, and the long handle lets you work standing up without bending into the debris pile.
Commercial roofing contractors use the #2 coal scoop for ballast removal on built-up roofs, gravel cleanup after tear-off, and moving loose material on low-slope jobs where a wheelbarrow cannot get close enough. The long wood handle is the standard choice for open deck work where reach matters more than maneuverability.
