Kevin, I would buy an Exmark over a Toro. Hustler, Scag, and Gravely are
also good mowers.
Thanks for the info! I really enjoy this wonderful and very informative
video!
But great vids 🙂 could you start a series on like techniques and things
you have learned from experiences to make jobs easier to do and price
maybe? Thanks again
Now i must say the majority of our equipment we bought cash after saving up
or bought used, the two hand helds we bought new payed for themselves in
about a week with spring clean up jobs, the only thing we’re still paying
for is ztr but like i said it is our second job so i think it is reasonable
but i would also say we started from the bottom
Started with a borrowed trailer, borrowed toro push mower, and borrowed
ryobi weedeater and my own crappy echo blower and edger. After about a
month i got a good deal on 6×12 trailer and 33″ walk behind, a month later
i got two used br 600s and sold echo blower. A month later i got a new
stihl fs 100rx & new stihl hl 100k, then i got a new hustler fastrak super
duty 48″, and got a used stihl fs 130r and trimmer and blower racks. Now
this is mine and my dad’s second job so we have income even when work is
slow. I recommend doing it on the side until you know for a fact you like
it and you get an idea of how everything works :)
Looking to get into the business, what is the best mower to use eXmark or
Toro.
My first choice for a blower is Redmax, second would be Husqvarna. My first
choice for a weedeater would be Husqvarna, then Stihl. I would get a new if
you can afford it. I try to by slightly used mowers but new handheld
equipment.
Buy wise I got four 21″ commercial toros only 3 years old cheap. They just
needed to be clean up. I sold one I got my money back and a small profit.
Same with my weedeater edger and blower got them cheap all commercial. Just
a few days ago I got a great deal on a 36″ scag. There a few years old but
work great. New or even use from a dealer I would of spent $4000 but paid
less than a quarter for all of it.
Oh and i just got a zero turn this year a Gravely 52 inch commerical last 5
years i was mowing with a 50inch tractor style cub cadet rider before that
was a 46 inch
