Everything you need to know about finding a garden tool supplier

Without garden tools it is difficult to do even the simplest chore such as weeding, digging a hole for a new plant or trimming overgrown trees and bushes. So what garden tools are available?

Types of Garden Tools

  • Digging and planting – Spade, shovel, hoe, garden fork, rake, trowel, hand spade, weeding fork
  • Pruning and cutting – secateurs, long handle pruner, lopper, shears, pruning saw
  • Motor driven – Lawn mower, edge trimmer, nylon cord weed whipper, leaf blower, shears
  • Other – wheelbarrow, fertilizer spreader

Manual vs. Motorised Garden Tools


We all have our favourite tools and garden tools are no exception. But with the choices available, do you stay with your old favourite manual tool or go to the motor driven versions?

Advantages of Manual Garden Tools

  • Safety - There is no need to wear ear protection against the noise. Also, the hands are behind the handles so there is very little chance of getting injured by manual hedge trimmers, shears, pruners or secateurs. There are no smelly fumes to breathe in.
  • Maintenance - A pair of sharp blades will last many years without needing any more attention than being kept sharpened and lightly oiled. They do not use electricity, fossil fuels or batteries.
  • Ergonomics – Most manual tools are much lighter in weight than their motorised equivalent. They also do not require long electrical cables, so you don’t have to lift and lug as much.
  • Satisfaction - Using manual garden tools provides the opportunity to exercise the body and gives a sense of satisfaction at having achieved something with one’s own efforts.

Advantages of Motorised Garden Tools

  • Safety – All motorised tools with sharp edges come with some sort of guard to prevent them from causing harm.
  • Maintenance – If properly maintained, motorised garden tools can last a lifetime. The motors are mostly powerful enough for the tool’s normal intended use.
  • Ergonomics – Unlike traditional manual garden tools, much thought has been given to the ergonomics of motorised garden tools, making them balanced and easy to handle. 
  • Satisfaction – The biggest satisfaction of using a motorised garden tool is getting the job done in less time than when using manual tools.
