    Push mower overload!

    I have been in the past breaking down push mowers but now I'm over whelmed with mowers. I have 8 in the back yard my question is I see some Craig's listers buying mowers what's a good price to sell them for. Condition of most of mine are like new decks good wheels some will turn over but most are locked up.

    3/8 air ratchet will make quick work of them, maybe you can find someone local that does small engine repair that would buy them for $20 each or alteast take the repairable ones off your hands

    I just sold a Troybilt that the "self-propel" didn't work (push mower) for $25.00 w/a bagger. Guy figures he can fix and sell for around $100.00

    I've got a deal with a one man operation where he gets first shot at any repairable mowers, saws, whatever that I get and I get all his scrap it's a win win. Something like that might work for you if you can find the right shop.

    I got a fella across the bridge from my sandbar who does the same. I get any mowers I give him a call an we swap for some scrap/ewaste. I don't have to deal with the things, an he gets to tinker an no worry bout having to hit the yard.

    Gotta love it when you can find someone to barter with.

    Sirscrapalot - Doesn't like dealing with mowers, but will if he has to.
