W manufacturers and products on the market , it ’ s often helpful to have some support in finding the right equipment for the job . Here at AJ Mowers we pride ourselves on working closely with our customers and potential customers to do just that . We spend time understanding your needs , coming to visit you if needed ( and arranging demos whenever we can ), and providing a range of options that meet your requirements and budget .
We were delighted to work with Wiltshire College & University Centre recently to do just that . The Lackham estate is home to their specialist landbased courses .

With this new model , fuel consumption is economic , and a lower sound output ( in contrast with other ride-on mowers ) allows minimal disruption when working near classrooms ”.
Oliver goes on to say , “ the support from Nigel the Sales Director at AJ Mowers was excellent . He took time to understand our requirements , visited the site and helped identify the right machine to work equally well across a wide variety of areas of the estate ”.
