NO TRAILER? NO PROBLEM! [99% DIFFERENT THAN MOST SETUPS!]

[@BriansLawnMaintenance]

What do you guys think about box trucks and cab overs for lawn care setups?

[@musimowingmoreinc9031]

Run mine everyday. 18' box with a 2' internal dovetail. Hydraulic gate. Bought new and love it.

[@CountrysideLawnService]

I ran one for 2 years when I worked for someone… 18 foot box, two Turf Tigers, and a Turf Tracer (packed tight). Now I have my own business and have a 16 foot trailer with a zero turn and walk behind, I pull it with a 2022 F 250. I hope to have a box truck in 2 seasons, they’re so convenient and it’s storage & a work truck in one…

[@jerseyboy1878]

Save money and go box truck

[@domistark]

Bro JD are the best!!! That's the only mower so far it take everything we have done, they are indeed like tanks

[@javanwinders3399]

We are using an Isuzu with landscape bed for the first time this season. So far I love it. Way more maneuverable than my truck and trailer

[@luh5wixk]

And I love watching Brian lawn care

[@CustomPowerwash]

I just bought my first cab over with a 19’ landscape bed. So far we love it. No trailer is really nice and it looks legit going down the road!

[@lifeintornadoalley]

This is amazing. Only turn off is no gate assist. But he's crushing it! I'm sure he'll find something. Everyone knows that feeling at 9pm in fall time finishing up and stressing that back one more time. I've had back spasms sometimes. Doesn't matter how light the gate is, you still gotta bend over. Dirt monkey just featured a strap door. That'd be perfect for a gate assist. And it speeds up when it wraps the strap.

[@vburke9232]

Heck yeah. Fairhope Alabama! Baldwin County.

[@jasons5607]

That's a cost saving setup, love the ceiling mount for the tools. Dealer support is huge fellas when buying a mower. Weingartz's offers zero down time with certain purchases,you have a break down if they can't fix or repair within an hour they give you a loaner and your out the door back at work. Great video.

[@ethangray2375]

Me and my dad had this discussion the other day. I’ve had a solo operation before but right now I’m in a transitional phase and working for a larger landscape company with 7-8 box trucks. Overall I love a box truck but I think you should only get one if you have a backup truck and trailer setup (like Jeremiah). It is definitely something to think about as it’s easier to train someone to drive. The downside is less flexibility and if these things are down they’re typically going to stay in the shop a while. They’re great if you’re going to continue to grow but as an owner operator setup I might would stay in the ecosystem of a trailer.

[@madisonross8197]

Thank you Brian for all you do!!!

[@BriansLawnMaintenance]

You are very welcome

[@PlemonsLawnCare]

That is the setup most of us use in the south. Ive had 2 over the years. They are easier to get in and out than a trailer and truck combo. Expensive to work on is the downside. We blow off the mowers and let it roll. Dirty means we are working.

[@davidcocanougher2722]

Lov the Deere got a 72 60 and 36 tanks

[@jeffgootjes8418]

We’ve got 2 Isuzu crewcabs with the Wilro ramp bed. In my experience they can’t be beat for lawncare. Box trucks with a ramp work well too. The price used is reasonable. Lock it up at night. Use it for sidewalk crews in the winter.

[@grassman8684]

Nice setup/ Almost like mine inside. I have an 05 NPR with a 16 foot box no dovetail. I am fixing to install a portapotty on mine to cutout bathroom stops. I'll have a tarp to pull for privacy. One thing I noticed on his is I didn't see what's going to prevent his blowers from hitting the floor if they cross a huge bump. I learned the hard way and busted my backpack.

[@peterjebeles4563]

Love it. I’m in Hoover Alabama which is just around the corner. Keep grinding bro

[@logansimpson5980]

Great video and cool setup

[@lukearmstrong3040]

Just saw this box truck today! Awesome setup for sure, I live in trussville and have a landscaping business of my own, I dream to have something like this soon. 18 and in highschool still😅

[@luh5wixk]

I’m 13 and I cutting grass in my neighborhood and I make 50 dollars every house I cutt

[@byronn.2885]

I have one X and two of the C blowers and I prefer the X pull start but the C is more comfortable for larger jobs and cleanups. I like the box van approach. If I wasn’t so heavily invested in my truck and trailers I would love to go that route.

[@loganc1839]

HAHAHA he said you scared to get dirty hahaha

[@cleanclippingslawnservice7128]

Love it

[@tonymcfee]

Not a bad setup. Whatever works and is efficient for the business is all good! Am I first? Wow! lol

[@BriansLawnMaintenance]

Hahaha nice!

[@strorandompage]

I'm assuming because it's a truck. You can put something reflective on the roof. To bounce the heat off

[@stevescott1962]

I HATE stihl wackers, too dam heavy lol

[@VanLoweLawnCare]

I'll wash my equipment before storing it ay for the winter, and when it gets slower half way through the season. Also funny yall said something about bin washing. I actually am trying to start the same thing, but I'm getting no interest where I'm at in Maryland. 🤷🏼

[@williamjanik7743]

You could certainly put a gate assist on that dovetail. Love the truck except for the tail swing. I have a lawn truck as well. Way better than the truck trailer setup for me.

[@firstname6208]

That is lots of overhang past the axel. Got to be careful turning and backing. Its too low, drag the hitch comming out of a gas station. I have gas struts and gorilla lifts on my bi fold ramps. I also hang my weed eaters on the rhs behind the box and blower rack is on a swing arm behind the ramps. One trip into the box per stop. Back the mower out, drive it in. Everything else on the side.

[@Alex.AL_26]

Interesting set up but definitely not for me! I once rented an Isuzu box truck like that to move some stuff and absolutely hated driving it. I always look forward to driving my truck and trailer every morning so if I had to drive that everyday I would dread going to work.

He better seal up the cab roof vent. Water will leak down that and corrode your computer and wire harness.
