So you want a great looking lawn but with the tools you have, it isn’t going to happen even if you had an army of people to help. Landscaping isn’t exactly something most people find enjoyable and see it as being a daunting task. If you aren’t at the beach, a bucket and hand spade isn’t going to do you much good. And not to mention, you probably have many bills and can’t afford to buy some serious equipment.

You don’t need to fill your credit cards and empty your bank accounts to buy garden tools. Fortunately many stores across the country have a rental department. Renting tools that you need is much cheaper and can be extremely helpful for more difficult tasks such as jack hammering concrete or cutting down trees with a chainsaw. So let’s look at some common garden tools you might need to rent.

1.      Pruning and hedging shears are used to cut large branches, small trees, and trimming hedges. Of course if you have a lot of work to do every year you may find it a better invest in a set. Some of these have extensions and hydraulic mechanisms to make the work easier. Rentals for these will easily be under $20 per day.

2.      Chain saws are a valuable tool for larger jobs. These are extremely expensive to buy for the amount of time that you will probably use it for. Just be sure that you are taught on how to use and operate it properly. Always wear steel toed boots, hard hat, and safety glasses. A typical rental will be under $50 per day and often weekend deals will be about the same for 2 days.

3.      As we’ve discussed on our website, a weed eater can be helpful for clearing large areas of brush or simply tidying up areas a lawn mower can’t get to. For under $30 a day you can rental a gas powered weed eater to tackle the toughest of jobs.

4.      Although a leaf blower is extremely noisy, it can quickly blow large amounts of debris in to a large pile for cleanup.

5.      You would be surprised to know that you can also rent more simple tools such as rakes, shovels, and buckets. These are the bread and butter of every landscaping job. The majority of these can be rented for dollars a day.

Renting tools allow you to make bigger jobs easier without forking out the gold bags stashed in your vault. They will always be maintained and ready to use. Even experts rent tools because it makes more sense than having to pay for an expensive item and keep up with repairs
