4 Benefits of Having A Snow Blower This Winter

3 Reasons to Buy A Snow Blower

Winter truly can be one of the most beautiful times of the year. One morning you wake up to layers of white, perfect snow but then…  You realize something. Your driveway is gone! Now you’re faced with a the dreadful task of finding your way out. While using a snow shovel is what every homeowner typically has on stand, it is not the most practical equipment for heavy snow removal. Especially, if you’re on the time crunch trying to get to work in the morning! This is when a snow blower comes in handy…

3 Reasons to Buy A Snow Blower

  1. It saves time. Did you know a small snow blower can remove up to 650 pounds of snow in 60 seconds? When you find your driveway stuck under a lot of snow, a snow blower will clear your way within minutes! No more standing in the freezing cold in the morning when you’re supposed to be on your way to work!
  2. It does the work for you! All you got to do is start the machine and direct it in the right way! No more problems with your back or shoulders!
  3. It keeps you safe. A snow blower is so efficient, it can effortlessly throw snow 20 to 30 feet away! Who doesn’t love a flawless and safe driveway in the winter, especially when you’re using foot traffic?!

Needless to say, the snow blower is a great investment for your home during the winter season. Just remember, clear any debris within its path to avoid damage and to clear snow up and down rather than going across.

Better to be safe than sorry. Don’t let the power outage catch you off guard, when you’re supposed to be enjoying summer! At Suburban Lawn Equipment in Delaware, we encourage our customers to purchase Honda outdoor power equipment, and make sure they all know and understand how to properly use a Honda Generator.

How To Properly Use A Honda Generator

To keep you and your family safe during power shortage, follow these 5 tips from Delaware’s Outdoor Power Equipment Experts:

  1. Read the manual. Following the manufacturer’s instructions is key. It’s a simple way to avoid hazardous situations and a guarantee to getting the most out of the generator.
  2. Use Honda Generators outside your home or business. It’s important to be aware of dangerous toxins around us, like carbon monoxide (CO). To make sure that your generator is not emitting toxins inside your home, install a battery operated CO alarm as an extra safety net.
  3. Use a heavy-duty extension cord for outdoors. Avoid extension cords with visible wires.
  4. Do not use Honda Generator in the rain. If so, you’re putting yourself in danger of shock or electrocution. It’s better to wait until rain stops, but if it’s absolutely necessary to use a generator, do your best to shield it from moisture.
  5. Never refuel a generator when it’s on. Cool it down first. It’s easy to cause a fire when gasoline or other flammable liquid spills onto a hot surface.

Should you have more questions or any concerns regarding how to use any Honda outdoor power equipment, contact us today.

How to Choose a Snow Removal Company

If the idea of shoveling or using a snow blower on a wintry day makes you cringe, you may want to consider hiring a snow removal company before the white stuff  gets here.

A variety of companies and contractors  offer this seasonal service.  So, how do you choose one? Cheaper is not always better.  It is important to do a little research and to ask some pertinent questions , such as:

  • Is the company reputable?
  • How long has it been in business?
  • What are the payment terms?
  • Are they insured?
  • What type of equipment do they use?
  • Will they return in spring to repair any damage?

It is wise to interview several contractors and get quotes for comparisons.  Also, be sure to get a written contract, do not rely on verbal assurances.  Finally, check with your local Better Business Bureau to be sure the company has no complaints and see what type of rating they have.

By doing your homework, you can find a snow removal contractor that you can trust and rely on for many winters to come. And if you decide to do it yourself, you may want to invest in a quality snow thrower. We carry a full line of residential and commercial snow removal equipment. Stop by Suburban today.

Encouraging Report for the Landscape and Lawn Care Businesses Going into 2016

Landscape Business to Grow in 2016There is good news on the horizon for the Landscape and Lawn Care business. Many landscape contractors reported solid sales, greater profits and stable labor needs this last year. Thanks to growth in housing starts and commercial construction, the landscaping industry has significantly improved over the last few years and things look good all the way through 2020.

According to IBISWorld, a research firm in New York and Los Angeles, a steady increase in per capita disposable income and an aging population in need of a variety of home services will help the lawn care and landscaping industry to grow.

Over half of contractors supplying installation, maintenance, irrigation and lawn care services have reported an increase in sales for 2015 and many are optimistic for this year. Specialty services, such as hardscaping, tree care, pest control, lighting and natural/organic lawn care have also seen a significant growth this past year.

Many contractors are planning to raise prices. They have cited one reason as an increase in spending levels by customers, especially for outdoor living areas and water features. Many also indicated they had a growing need for non-field personnel.

On the down side, a shortage of qualified laborers has dampened the profit margin, as well as higher costs in health insurance, workers compensation and fuel prices. Other top concerns are low-ball competitors, regulations of or bans on water/irrigation and pesticide/fertilizer use.

Don’t be discouraged by this, as the number of landscaping businesses (according to IBISWorld) will grow a mere 2% or so per year over the next five years. When you compare this to 2010’s 4.5% growth rate, or even 2007’s 16% growth rate, things are looking pretty rosy for the established landscape companies.

What do you think this next year will bring for your landscaping business?
