For lawn care professionals, summer means long hours, tough conditions, and a full schedule of demanding jobs. Having the right equipment is essential, but having the right accessories can make all the difference in boosting efficiency, safety, and overall performance.
Here are the top must-have accessories that every lawn care pro should keep in their trailer this season:
1. Protective Gear for Heat & Safety
Working outdoors in July can be brutal. Equip yourself with:
- Cooling neck wraps and UV-blocking hats
- Protective eyewear and gloves
- Noise-canceling earmuffs or earplugs (especially when using blowers and mowers)
STIHL® and Echo both offer professional-grade safety accessories built for extreme conditions.
2. Fuel Stabilizers and Oil Mixes
Keep your equipment running smoothly by using manufacturer-recommended oil mixes and stabilizers. These help reduce wear and prevent costly breakdowns during your busiest months.
3. High-Capacity Batteries & Chargers
If you’ve invested in battery-powered equipment, carrying a spare battery (or two) is a game-changer. Fast chargers can also save you hours of downtime between jobs.
4. Mulching Kits and Baggers
Offer your clients options. Whether they want fine mulching or a clean bagged cut, having the right accessories on-hand for your mower, like STIHL® mulching kits, adds professional polish to every job.
5. Trimmer Line & Blade Replacements
Don’t let a snapped trimmer line or dull blade slow you down. Keep an organized stock of:
- Pre-cut trimmer line
- Extra edger blades
Sharpened mower blades for easy swaps
6. Sprayers & Spreaders
Whether you’re treating weeds, fertilizing, or seeding bare patches, portable sprayers and commercial-grade spreaders are a must for efficient coverage.
7. Equipment Racks & Storage Solutions
Protect your investment and work smarter with truck or trailer-mounted equipment racks. These keep your gear organized, reduce wear-and-tear, and prevent costly damage during transport.
