Jayson Hassell parked his car on the side of the street Sunday afternoon before the snow came.
On Tuesday morning he was left to deal with the aftermath.
“These cars parked on the side like I am, it builds all that snow up next to it and it just becomes hard to get out,” Hassell said.

News Center 7 reached out to Centerville Public Works about the clean-up on neighborhood streets.
“We target main streets first, then we call connector streets and then residential ... we have covered all of them,” the city said in part.
They added they put out salt on every road which will continue to melt the snow throughout the day.
Hassell hopes it works fast, he’s concerned about drivers having enough room.
“Just as soon as you get on this snow, you got no control, you’re sliding all around,” he said.
It was a similar story in Kettering.
Emrick Pemtuite and Jayden Theiss were shoveling snow out of a driveway.
They said they’ve been moving from house to house since Sunday, helping stuck cars along the way.
Kettering City Engineer Steve Bergstresser said his crews switched from eight-hour shifts to 12.
“Our goal is to have every street either salted or plowed within about 30 hours or so of when the snow stops falling,” he said.
He added they’re prepared for any more snow that may come our way.
