Mowers for Sale in Yulee Near Jacksonville, Florida

Which Lawn Mower Is Right For You?

Whether you're a professional landscaper or a private citizen with a few acres of land to care for, you'll undoubtedly benefit from the purchase of a lawn mower. These machines have been cutting down mowing time for decades, and they've only gotten better with time. Johnson Fleet and Farm, with a number of locations near Jacksonville and St. Augustine, has created this quick guide to help you figure out what lawn mower is right for you and your needs.

Push & Walk-Behind Mowers

If you don't mind taking some time going up and down your lawn and getting some walking in, then a push or walk-behind mower might be perfect for you.

Push mowers have come a long way since the 1950s, requiring less effort on your part thanks to improved efficiency. They have reliable starts, are affordable and easy to maintain and operate. You'll also find models in a variety of widths in order to serve the size of the land you're maintaining.

Walk-behind mowers give you a little more power to help you get through your work more quickly. These tools last a long time and work efficiently on small residential properties. You can choose between self-propelled and push styles that are either gas or electric powered. Newer styles even have multiple options for cut length. These machines are also affordable and require little maintenance to work well for years.

Riding Mowers & Lawn Tractors

While you may see a lot of landscaping professionals make use of riding mowers, that doesn't mean you can't use them for residential properties, too. If you have a number of obstacles you need to mow around or you just have a big parcel of land to tend to, then a riding mower can be a huge boon. Of course, groundskeepers and land management services will also derive benefit from these machines, too.

A lawn tractor will give you plenty of power with its big engine and wide cutting deck so that you won't have to spend hours trying to trim your grass. Some even have power take-off (PTO) functionality which lets you join up specialized attachments to improve utility.

A zero-turn lawn mower, in particular, is extremely efficient for lawn care needs. The zero-turn means that this machine can pivot around easily to line up your parallel cuts perfectly. These mowers are fast and precise with huge cutting decks and the ability to easily move around obstacles. They are, however, the most expensive option, so you'll want to make sure this is a worthwhile investment for your business or private property.
