The robotic mower advantage

One of the most pressing and persistent issues currently facing contractors is the labour shortage. Enter robotic mowing.

- 

According to the National Association of Landscape Professionals (NALP), over 80% of landscape companies report difficulty finding qualified workers. Entry-level workers are in short supply, and experienced crew members are even harder to retain. Many companies are turning down work or limiting their service areas simply because they don't have the manpower to keep up with demand.

At the same time, the demand for landscape services - particularly in municipalities, infrastructure maintenance, and large-scale commercial properties - is on the rise. Contractors are caught in a frustrating paradox: more work is available, but there aren't enough hands to do it.

This is where robotics steps in – not as a replacement for labour, but as a strategic asset to extend the reach and productivity of the workers contractors do have.

One operator, multiple jobs

RC Mowers' flagship machine, the Remote Operated Slope Mower, is designed to do the heavy lifting in some of the industry's most labour-intensive and hazardous environments. These aren't your average lawn mowers. They're tracked, remote-operated machines built to handle steep slopes, retention ponds, highway embankments, wet, waterlogged ground and overgrown or difficult-to-access properties.
