Amazon Prime Day is a fantastic opportunity to switch from gas-powered lawn equipment to electric if you’ve been contemplating a change. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a gas-powered lawnmower emits as much pollution per hour, on average, as 11 cars. Aside from being more environmentally friendly, transitioning to electric equipment also helps reduce noise pollution. This year, Amazon Prime Day will take place on July 16 and 17, offering Prime members special deals for 48 hours. However, Prime members can take advantage of early deals starting today. Currently, lawnmowers, leaf blowers, and hedge trimmers are on sale, with Amazon offering discounts on combo kits containing essential tools for environmentally-friendly lawn care.
If you’re not already a Prime member, consider signing up or starting a free trial to access Amazon’s Prime Day savings. Prime membership is priced at $139 annually or $14.99 per month. Students can also benefit from special pricing discounts on a Prime membership. Here are ten early deals on equipment to help you transition to green lawn care:
