Spreaders. Less work. Less wastage.

A lawn spreader is a vital piece of application equipment for any lawn lovers shed. Although only used a few times a year it is well worth the investment, so if you are looking to buy a lawn spreader today then you came to the right place.

There are lots of advantages to having a lawn spreader so we have covered some of them below.

Even application

Fertilisers create colour and growth, so it’s very important that they are applied evenly, otherwise you will have surges of growth and colour in some areas not others. Fertilisers are also salts and if over applied they can damage the turf, burning it in patches where some may have been dumped if applied by hand.

Easier to handle

Fertiliser bags aren’t carry bags, so it’s not that simple to carry a large bag around, whilst a large amount of fertiliser can be put into a hopper and simply wheeled around in the Earthway 2600A or properly supported with the ergonomic handle of the Scotts Handygreen 2.

Safer to handle

Fertilisers are salts, and while they are low risk to handle they can be irritating to the skin so it’s better to minimise that risk as much as possible.

Cost savings

Probably the number one reason to buy a lawn spreader is they end up paying for themselves. While we can apply granular lawn fertilisers by hand the application with a lawn spreader means it can be applied not only evenly, but also at a lower rate. Lawn spreaders can put products out at low rates like 1kg/100m2 while applying by hand usually results in rates more like 4kg/100m2. So, there is considerable savings by applying by lawn spreader.

With these benefits it’s hard to argue to buy a lawn spreader is a worthwhile investment. Luckily, we have high quality lawn spreaders for sale.
