Our best clients, with custom truck designs, custom paint colors, lettering and logos, special door specs or Solar Lawn Truck packages, order their Super Lawn Trucks four to six months ahead of their needs. If you need multiple trucks for your lawn service business in time for the busy Spring and Summer season, we recommend you place your order by October for Spring deliveries.  

We are able to build the Fast Track SLT packages in as little as a week. If you select the custom painting and marketing package it will require a minimum of 30 days for pick-up or delivery.

What models of Super Lawn Trucks are available?

We recommend and stock a variety of single cab and crew cab models of Isuzu N-Series Trucks. The cab forward truck chassis design creates a powerful combination of Super Lawn Truck body size and payload capacity. 

You can choose to select the Chevy LCF W-Series if you prefer the Chevrolet Brand of low cab forward trucks. Isuzu N-Series and Chevy W-Series are identical with the exception of the name badge and the service centers available.

We build Super Lawn Truck body packages on medium duty chassis models (Class 4 and 5 weight ratings) such as Isuzu, Ford, Chevy, Ram, Workhorse, Mullen, Sprinter, Zeus and others.

We build Super Lawn Truck body packages on light duty chassis models such as Ford, Chevrolet, GMC, Ram and a growing list of Electric Vehicle (EV) chassis platforms.

Do I have to buy the entire Super Lawn Truck system?

Super Lawn Trucks are trucks that are designed to improve the efficiency of professional lawn and landscaping companies. Our package of a rugged enclosed body with built on loading ramp, on board fueling stations for lawn equipment, tool storage systems for lawn and landscaping equipment and image-boosting marketing packages are available on a variety of single cab and crew cab truck options. You select the options most important to you.

Each Super Lawn Truck is designed to match the crew size of our lawn and landscaping clients and the budget you have available for your landscaping work trucks. If you are interested in adding a box truck to your lawn service fleet, you can add the easy-to-install MR-750 bolt-on loading ramps to your truck. We ship these box truck loading ramps to your door. You can learn more about box truck loading ramps here.

What are the most common sizes of the (box) van body?

Our most popular model is the 16 foot long and 18 foot long bodies. Super Lawn Truck bodies are also available in 6’, 8’, 12’, 14′, 18′, 20′, 22’ and 24’ enclosed and open bodies. 

Super Lawn Trucks builds work truck bodies with a variety of widths to match the variety of light duty and medium duty truck chassis packages. Bodies are available in 80”, 90”, 96” and 102” widths. We must package the correct length, width and height of the truck body with the correct cab chassis. Speak to one of our truck design guides at 866-923-0027 to help you match the correct body and chassis package.

How many lawn mowers will fit into a Super Lawn Truck?

The type of machines you use will certainly affect this. A typical set up could be 1-36′ walk behind, 1-48′ walk behind, and 1-72″ rider (3 machines) or 2- 72″ riders and 1-21′ push mower (3 machines) or 3-52″ walk behinds (3 machines). These examples are workable with 16’ or 18′ models. Stand on mowers take up the smallest footprint. With a combination of 36” or 48” or 60” machines, you could place 6 of these mowers inside one Super Lawn Truck.

If your company uses small mowers, like the 36”, 30” and 21” mowers, you can select a smaller enclosed body and have plenty of room for handheld power tools, you may select a smaller truck body and lower gross vehicle weight rating. In most cases, smaller trucks equals more affordable price points.

What do you recommend for landscape companies who currently rely on their trucks for pulling trailers in the summer and plowing snow in the winter?
  • First, there are several manufacturers of snow plows who make plows and plow kits for the Isuzu trucks. So yes.  You can plow snow with an Isuzu truck.  If you want to plow snow with your Isuzu truck there are two recommendations.
  • Order your Isuzu truck with the optional positive traction rear end.
  • Plan on installing a more aggressive tire tread on the rear wheels and operate the truck with weight in the rear.
  • The majority of our clients use our enclosed body systems for sidewalk crews.
  • SLT’s are used for secure storage and transport of:
    • Snow Blowers, RTV’s with small plows and small salt spreaders, Sidewalk Crew Equipment such as the Snow Boss can be easily loaded into the Super Lawn Truck.
    • Most clients who have major snow and ice control services choose the double swinging side door option, to be able to load a full pallet of ice melt into the truck.

As lawn and landscape companies grow, equipment becomes more specialized.  The Super Lawn Truck system is operating in 48 states and Canada because it improves productivity in lawn service companies year round.  The Isuzu trucks are affordable and provide a low cost of ownership.  The Super Lawn Truck system/upfit is proven to eliminate the need to pull trailers while dramatically enhancing landscaper marketing with stunning billboards.
