Why do most landscapers use commercial walk behind mowers when the cost of a brand new garden or yard tractor is so much less? I was looking to start up a buisness and I found that a 8 – 10 year old walk behind commercial mower (32-48 inches) is the same price as a brand new tractor? Anybody with lawn mowing buisness experiance an answer would be appreciated. Thanks!
There are lots of companies that use them these days. In both their city cabs, and highway units. The company I work for in Canada has them. The company I am on assignment to has them. And the last company I worked for has them. Of course they still have manual transmissions too… but the semi-automatics are gaining in popularity.
I never thought I’d like them… but you know, after driving them in heavy traffic day after day, I prefer them now. One less thing to worry about… as you can concentrate more on the moronic moves of 4-wheelers.
Tractor/trailer recruiting companies Experience yes in sales and marketing as well as lifetime of drivers
I only have 3mths experience but I’m willing to do a 2wk training, etc. I tried Hogan, Interstate Distribution, Averitt, and Arnold. I really don’t like manual transmissions semi trucks. If anybody know of any companies besides these, it would be a great help.
