One thing many service technicians, landscapers, and work truck drivers of all kinds can agree on is that keeping equipment and tools organized is a way to improve business operations. Another thing many work truck drivers and owners can agree on is that the truck must be able to handle the job—safely. We’re sharing a few products this month to help keep landscaping vehicles organized and ensure their upfits can handle the job as safely as possible.
CTECH MANUFACTURING

AG Body
For the landscaper with an abundance of tools, perhaps AG Body’s Universal Drawer Units are the answer to an orderly, efficient truck. Universal Drawer Units are sized to fit and built to last. Landscapers and owners are able to specify their compartment dimensions, desired drawer configuration, powder coat color, as well as optional items such as risers, top shelf, sub-dividers, notched end panels, or T-handle latches. Steel ball bearing drawer slides are available in heavy duty (250 Ibs), super duty (500 Ibs), and light duty (100 lbs). All steel construction (12 and 16 gauge), complete powder coat coverage, and quality construction make these units durable, especially for mobile applications.
Hannay
Hannay’s Spray Non-Corrosive (SNC) Series reels are designed specifically for lawn care, agriculture, horticulture, pest control, and other spray-related industries. Primarily constructed of 304-grade stainless steel, these lightweight, low-profile reels provide significant strength and protection advantages in corrosive environments. Handling 3/8-inches through 5/8-inches ID hose and lengths up to 500 ft, these reels support water, pesticides, and fertilizer mixes in standard pressures rated up to 3,000 psi. The SNC Series is available with either a crank or electric-powered rewind with other options including four-way roller guides and a 304 SST constructed stacking kit.
Pulltarps
Landscaping companies have the unique job of collecting waste from various sources and ensuring it is disposed of responsibly. That can include hauling dirt, mulch, deforestation debris, tree and shrub clippings, and heavy stumps. Any loose load that spills is a potential for a citation or an injury. Thankfully, Pulltarps has durable and reliable tarp systems to keep you covered, including the SuperShield Systems. The most durable tarping system in the industry, the SuperShield is available as fully automatic systems that cover the truck in the flick of a switch and spring-assisted pull tarp systems that are economical and don’t require hand cranking. The SuperShield is the landscaping industry’s most trusted system.
Monroe Truck Equipment
Monroe Truck Equipment’s ZDumpPro helps landscapers safely and efficiently move materials without worry of spill over or safety. A dump body is an investment, and the ZDumpPro ensures long-term ROI. The long-lasting corrosion-resistant build is designed to withstand years of rigorous use. It’s also designed with user safety and comfort in mind. The ZDumpPro makes the loading, transportation, and unloading of materials such as mulch, sand, soil, debris, and other materials an efficient and streamlined process.
