Arguably one of the most important tools for lawn maintenance, your mower endures a lot. Stand-on mowers can offer an easy ride for your crews and a tidy job for your customers.
Chant Singvongsa says for him and his three-man crew at Singvongsa Landscaping in Jackson, Minnesota, a stand-on mower was an easy choice.
“I liked the stand-on because it seemed more comfortable,” he says. “Standing up lets us have the better visibility.”
At Singvongsa’s company, the crew mows about two or three days a week. They also operate with two riding mowers.
Hank Parker, president of Bay Landscaping in Mobile, Alabama, also has one stand-on in his fleet, with plans for one or two more in the future.
“Our guys were a little scared at first,” he says. His crews had some less-than-ideal experiences with a different stand-on mower, and they were wary of learning to operate the new machine. Now, they love their stand-on.
