One of the benefits of robotic mowing is that it reduces the costs for your lawn care company. If you automate the mowing part of your services, then you can allow your crews to concentrate on the other lawn services that you provide to your customers. You just need one of your crew members in order to manage up to 20 robots every single day. That crew member should still have plenty of time to take care of the creative responsibilities associated with your lawn care company. Using a robot to mow a lawn will save you up to 80% of the time that it would take to mow that lawn if one of your crew members did it himself.
Another benefit of robotic mowing is that it can increase your productivity in general. Since robots can take care of the mowing for you, crew members can complete more difficult tasks. If you have a long to-do list of services you need to do, your crew members can work on doing things on that list, too.
Robotic lawn care is also much quieter compared to standard mowing performed by one of your crew members mowing using a ride-on lawnmower. This helps because you can mow at any time. Thanks to the decreased noise, you should not have to worry about bothering tenants if you are mowing in a residential area. If you are mowing your own property, your neighbors probably won't get annoyed because robotic lawn care is far quieter than traditional lawn care.
Robotic Lawn Care Is Good for the Environment
About 5% of the U.S.'s pollution comes from the use of lawn equipment. Robots do not produce any emissions while mowing lawns. Robots are also energy efficient in that they use only about 5% of the amount of energy of a ride-on lawnmower. According to statistics from the EPA, a single gas mower running for one hour emits a number of pollutants that is equivalent to the number of pollutants that eight new cars produce when they are driving 55 miles per hour for an hour.
Robotic Lawn Care Is Weather Proof
You don't have to worry about rain delays or crews that do not arrive on time. Robots can mow every single day and night if necessary. Rain delays affect you no matter where you are and the southwest regional average for rain days is roughly 40 days in the southwestern U.S. states. A few of the northern U.S. states get roughly 160 rain days a year. Robotic lawn care eliminates the problem of rain delays.
Robotic Lawn Care Is Safe
Robotic lawn mowers mow gently around the fields and the lawnmower's rotation instantly stops if the mower is lifted. The blades pivot away from obstacles so you won't have to worry about damaged lawn mower blades so much. Traditional ride-on lawnmowers are not completely safe. With robotic lawnmowers, your crew members and anyone else can stay safe since whoever is managing the robotic lawnmowers can make sure that no one gets hurt during lawn mowing.
