Frequently Asked Questions

What lawn mower do most professional Canadian lawn care companies use?

Most Canadian lawn care companies run commercial-grade walk-behind rotary mowers from Exmark, Toro, or Husqvarna. These cost $2,000 to $5,000 CAD and are built for daily all-season use. For residential homeowners, the closest equivalent is the Toro Recycler 22 — same mowing platform, consumer-grade durability, available at Canadian Tire and Home Depot Canada for $649 to $899.

Are battery mowers powerful enough for thick GTA grass?

Yes — modern 56V and 80V battery mowers from EGO and Greenworks deliver genuine gas-equivalent torque on standard residential lots up to 6,000 sq ft. The EGO POWER+ LM2156SP handles GTA Kentucky bluegrass and fescue blends without bogging even at the 3-inch recommended height. For lots larger than 8,000 sq ft, the Greenworks 80V 25" is the better choice for runtime.

What is the best time of year to buy a lawn mower in Canada?

Late summer (August) and fall (September to October) are the best times to buy lawn mowers in Canada. Canadian Tire, Home Depot Canada, and Rona all run their deepest seasonal clearance on gas and battery mowers from August through October — discounts of 20 to 40% off regular price are common. Spring (April to May) is the worst time to buy — full price, limited inventory.
