Why Flip the Switch from Gas to Battery-Powered Landscaping Equipment?

Battery-powered landscaping tools are no longer just a trend—they’re the future of the green industry. Industry leaders like STIHL, ECHO, and Husqvarna are driving innovation in electric handheld equipment, while ECHO robotic mowers are reshaping how municipalities and sports fields maintain large properties. On a larger scale, machines like the Mean Green 74" Zero-Turn and the Toro GrandStand Revolution Series are redefining what’s possible for electric commercial mowers.

Whether you’re managing residential jobs or large-acreage municipal contracts, making the switch to eco-friendly landscaping equipment means cleaner performance, quieter operation, and reduced long-term costs.

Efficient for Your Crew and the Planet

Battery-Powered Handheld Tools — No more mixing gas and oil. No more filter replacements. With battery-powered trimmers, blowers, and chainsaws, maintenance becomes minimal—saving you both time and money. For landscaping crews, these tools help improve productivity while reducing emissions and noise on every job.

Electric Mowers & Compact Loaders — The transition to battery-powered mowers and electric compact loaders is accelerating fast. Brands are providing features like solar charging canopies, swappable battery packs, and full-day run times—making it easier than ever to go green without sacrificing performance. Expect more innovation and options in this category as demand grows.

Robotic Lawn Mowers — When it comes to maintaining parks, athletic fields, or large campuses, robotic mowers are a game-changer. These smart machines operate using GPS navigation and wireless connectivity, letting you mow entire fields with minimal supervision. Adjust mowing schedules, respond to weather delays, and monitor performance—all from your smartphone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can we dispose of batteries?

Many of these batteries are designed to have a very long shelf life, but eventually, they do run out. When batteries no longer hold their charge, they need to be properly disposed and every municipality has different rules. If you aren't sure of your local regulations, nationwide programs like Call 2 Recycle can help! Check out their program here at www.call2recycle.org

How many spare batteries will I need to order?

This varies by brand. Toro's new Revolution line is designed to last all day, while some handheld brands run for 30-45 minutes before needing a charge. Each manufacturer will be different.

Are there finance options available for battery-powered fleets?

Absolutely! Battery-powered equipment is definitely an investment in the future of landscaping and we know it can be costly. That's why we're excited to work with you on finding the best way to get your battery-powered fleets set up. Additionally there are Federal Tax Incentives to take advantage of.
