Abstract/Contents:Offers suggestions for selecting mowers for lawn maintenance companies. States that "the type and quantity of mowers to purchase are considerations contractors face to determine the right fleet size for their businesses. There are also issues contractors should pay attention to as their businesses grow or shrink." Suggests that "avoiding idle equipment and maintaining quality machines are two things contractors can do to ensure they're getting the most for their mower money." Concludes that "each contractor needs to look at his personal situation because there is no magic formula to decide what to do when it comes to mower fleets."
