Robot mowers aren’t “the future” anymore — they’re already in gardens up and down the country. The real question is whether gardeners should be involved… or left watching from the sidelines.
More clients are asking for:
✔ predictable monthly costs
✔ quieter, low-maintenance lawns
✔ fewer visits but better results
Some gardeners are responding by renting robot mowers, others by offering managed lawn subscriptions, where the robot does the cutting and the gardener stays in control of the quality.
Done right, it can mean:
• recurring monthly income
• less wear on your body
• fewer weekly mowing visits
• a stronger long-term relationship with clients
Done badly… it’s just an expensive toy gathering dust in the shed.
So what do you think?
👉 Is robot mower hire a smart way to future-proof a gardening business
👉 Or another distraction from proper gardening?
Interested to hear real opinions — especially from gardeners who’ve been around long enough to see “the next big thing” come and go 👀🌿
