Show Notes

Battery-powered equipment is a fan favorite for clients because of the reduced noise, but many pros struggle with how to switch their crews over. In this episode, Marty Grunder is joined by a panel of experts who share their advice on setting crews up for success with battery-powered equipment and share best practices if you're interested in trying it out yourself.

Marty discusses the transition to battery-powered landscaping equipment with Clint Deboer from Pro Tool Reviews, Brandon Haley from SSC Service Solutions, and Dan Mabe from the American Green Zone Alliance. Clint offers expertise in tool reviews, Brandon shares economic insights from his company's switch to electric equipment, and Dan, with his extensive experience in eco-friendly landscaping practices, delves into the industry's challenges and opportunities. Together, they cover the financial and environmental benefits, practical applications, and strategies for managing a battery-powered fleet, addressing the shift from traditional gas-powered tools to sustainable, electric alternatives.
