A Mulching Kit

Each time you mow your lawn, you generate a decent amount of clippings. These clippings could be a big pile of waste that you'll need to discard somewhere. Or they could be used to help keep your yard healthy! That's where a mulching kit enters the picture.

A mulching kit puts the clippings back into the grass, which helps improve the health of your yard. Plus, it saves you the time and hassle of having to empty your collection bag. This upgrade usually involves a tailored blade and a plug that blocks the hole where clippings normally go into the collection system. You'll save time while boosting your yard health!

A Utility Cart

Many riding mowers are able to hitch a trailer or cart. These can be used in a range of ways. Carry extra tools to your project site. Transport debris, such as fallen leaves or branches, off of your yard and to a dumpsite. You'll be able to transport a wide range of items for various yard maintenance projects, saving you time and effort.

A Brush Guard

Your yard could be full of obstacles that can cause damage to your lawn mower, such as fallen branches and debris. These can ding up the front of your mower or even cause harm to the internal workings. A brush guard or bumper helps keep the front of your riding mower protected so you can more easily avoid this damage.

Lights

Sometimes the most convenient time to mow the lawn is early morning or late evening. This time may fit best into your schedule, but you won't get the benefit of sunlight clearly illuminating your yard. Adding lights to your riding mower helps ensure you'll always have the light you need, even when the sun isn't around. Some models can even be upgraded to LED lights. These burn brighter, last longer, and use less energy.

A Mower Canopy

Mowing your yard on a hot summer's day can get uncomfortable fast. The unrelenting sun can make the heat hard to handle. The larger your lawn, the longer you'll have to spend facing the unforgiving rays of the sun. A sun shade or canopy is a great resource for keeping you cool. They will help keep you from getting too hot as you cruise around your yard. They are easy to install, so you won't need to worry about tackling a difficult project. They are also inexpensive, making them an easy purchase even for those on a budget. You'll love the difference it makes to be shielded from the sun while you whip your yard into shape.
