4 Tips to Choose the Right Lawn Maintenance Equipment for You

lawn equipment optionsThe right lawn equipment helps you easily and efficiently maintain your property. But with so many models to consider, where do you begin?

Use the following tips to narrow the model selection to a more manageable number of choices. When you are ready to shop lawn equipment for sale in Illinois or Indiana, visit your local Birkey’s.  
 

1. Set Your Budget

When you shop for lawn equipment, you’ll find a wide range of price points. Are you operating a landscaping business? Or are you a homeowner, wanting to make the most of your yard? Setting a budget range ahead of time will help narrow your search.

One way to maximize your budget is to shop for used lawn maintenance equipment. Lawn equipment is built to last decades, so you can purchase a used model and still enjoy many years of high-end performance.

2. Address Your Needs 

What do you need the lawn maintenance equipment to do? Lawn mowers do so much more than just cut grass. Do you need mulching capabilities? Do you want to be able to tow a trailer?

3. Match the Equipment to Your Property

Next, think about what will best match your property. Your property’s features will dictate what will work best for you. 

For example:

  • If you have a large property, focus on models with efficiency and speed.

  • If your yard contains obstacles, choose models with the agility needed to navigate around them.

  • If your land contains slopes, pick a model with enough traction to safely tackle them.

4. Plan for Storage 

Your lawn maintenance equipment needs to go somewhere when it's not in use. Decide where you will store the outdoor power equipment you choose and shop for what you can fit—or add to your list to protect your investment with a new outbuilding.

You’re ready to make your choice. Explore Birkey’s selection online or stop by your local store in Illinois or Indiana. Our knowledgeable staff can help match you to the perfect lawn maintenance equipment for your needs.
