Eco-friendly lawn-care company opens
Green Revolution Lawn Maintenance, a large-scale lawn-care company, has opened to serve residential and commercial clients using machinery that produces zero emissions and 50 percent less noise than its traditional counterparts, according to owner Tim Warren.
Power is generated by lithium ion batteries that are charged using a customized solar system, Warren said.
Commercial-grade equipment includes 42-inch zero-turn mowers as well as stainless-steel hedge trimmers, string trimmers for weed eating, blowers for clearing yard debris, pole saws for pruning and chainsaws for heavier-duty maintenance.
Pricing is comparable to conventional lawn services, Warren said, because although the equipment is more expensive, supplies such as gas and oil are not required.
“It’s a misconception that it always costs more to be environmentally-conscious,“ he said. “That isn’t the case here.”
