Enclosed trailer because I have direct access to my equipment. We have locks on wverything. The only reason I would use my enclosed trailer when we hit a small community that has ne er seen our trucks and display my trailer as a sign and I will get calls just from my 3k wrap. A plus for the trailer is if it rains and we are further away from our shop we are good to go.
Awesome looking setup Mitchell, that new zxt 72 looks nice. That trailer is full but you're exactly right, looks like you have anything you need for the job right there. Spring will be here before we know it. Stay safe and have a good one brother.
Thanks man, the hoodie was a gift from Mullins Lawn Enforcement and Mullins Lawn Equipment out of TN. Box trucks are awesome! If i had kept running this business full time I was considering switching to one.
had to be some haters that don't like Ram, Green Touch, Wright Mfg, SureCan, Enclosed trailers, Stihl, ECHO, tools, sprayers, life or me .... lmao .... your guess is as good as mine
@@mithgo_outdoor that rams legit! I love the 32” tv you got in the dash! Trade the 3 Wright’s in and get the RC mower and watch tv while the mowers doing its job! 😏
had a idea know it would be a little pricey but what about put solar panels els on the roof then running it to a battery and inverter so you could power the lights and all the battery chargers for the cordless tools
Congrats, on your new Zxt, I just got word from my local Wright distributor that they will have only 1 61 Ztr coming within a week and will be sold to me. I'm so happy and can't wait any longer. great video pls keep the Zxt vid coming.
@@mithgo_outdoor Sure wish this guy up here uploaded more videos. But, I know it's easier said than done. I've been promising to upload for 2 Seasons & have officially 2 videos up. Hoping all is well guys, Dirty Jersey out!! #broinlawns!!
I run a very similar setup. Echo blowers, wright zk and stander b, and shindiawa handheld. You gotta make the switch brotha get rid of that heavy old stihl stuff!!!
I used to run nothing but Stihl, till they got stupidly expensive.. Now run nothing but Tanaka. (Japanese gear) as good as Honda.. Honda mowers.. I've now seen 3 of these closed trailers.. Not sure about them... Really good video... 💯💯
Everything looks nice Mitchell. Jam packed in a 20' trailer. But like you said you have everything for the most part you need when showing up to a job.
Hey buddy just found your channel don’t ask how yt made me watch 39 other lawn guys guess they saved the best for last*you* lol like I watched other lawn guys whine also small tip I’m a tire guy you should keep your spare tire covered because when dust and oil or gas vapors stick to the rubber or tire material it could prematurely wear like jeep uesd to give tire covers when people Got keep wranglers not sure if they still do prob to cut costs they stopped giving them just an idea to save ya also I wish all lawn guys would carry fire extinguishers and first aid kits I recommend everyone is just interested in having the fastest mower
man I appreciate everything you said! Seriously. I'm just a hard working dude like you and so many out there. Just decided to hit record lol. I'll definitely take you up on your tip for covering the tire, thank you for that!
Awesome setup mate and G'day from Australia 🙌 Looking forward to checking out more of your content and can tell your a very organized and thorough type of Fella 👍 Have a great day, Dan.
Thank you Russ. I use the Petra Tools battery sprayer - LT Pro 2.0 and HD4000. There is an affiliate link for them in my description that will save you 10% on your order if you choose to purchase. They work great.
how come youre getting rid of the stander 72? wanted the bigger engine and its only on the sit down or something? didnt want to stand on large properties?
had absolutely nothing to do with the engine actually. The ZK72 is powered by the 37hp Vanguard which is completely adequate and honestly too much power for weekly routine mowing. I was wanting something more comfortable for larger properties now that I don't service as many retention ponds as I did before 2020.
That's great Tony, thanks! The ZK72 is still for sale. It is currently out in my shed waiting for it's new home. Hopefully someone will buy it before spring.
Thanks Franco! It used to be nice and pretty years ago but she has taken a beaten. I am planning on doing a full renovation on the interior during the 2021 winter off-season. Thanks for tuning in man
Hello Giovanni, I've never tested for that so I'm unsure. If it's like any of the NC exams then as long as you read the necessary material before the exam you should be ok. To get into bidding commercial accounts you just need to advertise and market your services. There is no perfect recipe for success. Only way for people to know about you is to put yourself out there. Call businesses, call management companies etc. Keep trying until something clicks.

If you're going to employ 3 or more people (you are included) then you'll be required by NC law to have Worker's Compensation coverage as well.

Great video! I just got my zxt with the 60” have you had any problems with the controls drifting? Mine has been to the shop twice when the machine tries to reverse in neutral. They are telling me that’s normal, but I don’t think so. Thought?

I like that also, equipment over manpower! And heck no i ain't coming to Tampa to work! We are gonna have some fun! Hope to meet ya at Armature Works on Friday the 12th.
Thank you! And great question! I use the water for a couple different things. It comes in handy when spraying for weeds and the backpack sprayer runs dry. Sometimes I am in an area where I don't have access to water. Also, on hot summer days It's great to cool off with by running if over my arms and neck. These are just a couple reasons...
what size of spray nozzles do you have for your strom? I live in Reidsville NC and Pete owns GCI turf here in Reidsville. He custom makes 2 nozzles for that spayer. 8ft and 3 ft. Unware if you know this. If you do not have them, they will change your lawn applications. GCI TURF Academy is the name of your contact with him. He is a good dude...Mr. DIY!!!
I only use the sprayers to spot spray weeds, not for turf grass applications. The factory tips are sufficient for what I use them for. Thanks though Sam!

I like your enclosed trailer. In my area that used to make lawn mower trailers they put a 60 inch lawn mower in the front and it loaded it out of the right side in the front. And the other two more loaded out of the back. And they was not enclosed. But they was about 7 ft tall and 8 feet wide and 21 feet long. But they ran a two-man crew constantly. It was completely enclosed with wire. It was more centered a 2-3000 pound axles with carrying all they could. All them trailers with bought up by lawn mower people. When it went out of business. By the way how many times did you leave a gasoline can out full of water. So somebody could poured into their car. It's a funny joke
@@mithgo_outdoor I took some bad gas out of my Corvette. Left it out by my shed in the backyard. Somebody took the gas out of it and put it in their little scooter and it stopped running. They brought back the gas can. And put it back in the same spot. I was rolling I was happy to get the gas can back. Cuz I was going to have to pay for disposal fee. Lol I know one thing if you spilled gas on grass. It works like weed killer. That new antifreeze does the same thing. How much poison you think is in gasoline and antifreeze. It only takes like 2 days and it's dead
@@revfred2008 not sure what video you are speaking of sorry. The next update video will be released Monday Feb 8th at 4pm EST on the channel. Feel free to check out my "MLC Shop & Custom Home Build" playlist for previous shop update videos you might have missed.
@@mithgo_outdoor You said you gave an update a while ago ok the shop build so I was checking it. I was referring to the progress from the last video I saw which was just pouring of the foundation.
I feel like I can cut 5 acres just as fast with my 60 vs 72, being that the 72 takes forever to turn around and you can’t go as fast sitting down,, but they are nice for huge huge properties but if you have to turn around they down save you much time,
mowing times are situational, I don't go very fast when mowing. The 72 operates just the same as a 61, no difference in turn around time (I own both). The 72 saves me a lot of time over the 61 considering I am cutting approximately 20+ inches more in two passes than with the 61.
@@mithgo_outdoor I don't think it does but I could be wrong. It just protects the rest of the entire fuel system "when" the bosch cp4 fuel pump grenades like they have been commonly known to do.
@@mithgo_outdoor I've seen some disaster stories of trucks with very low mileage and the cp4 going out and destroying the whole fuel system, fuel lines, injectors, etc. I think Ram is going back to the cp3 this year because of it.
I got a question. I am in the process of choosing STIHL 800 or 600 back pack blowers and echo back pack blowers. Which is better? The STIHL or Echo back pack blowers? I like your setup.
Great set up, I’m in the market for a trailer now I also have a four-door full-size truck with an 8 foot bed do you have any problems fitting between properties with the rig being so long?
the only time there were the slightest of issues was in certain neighborhoods with smaller yards. Often the rig would block driveways. Since we were there that long it wasn't ever really a problem.
hey there Casey! I've used vinegar in the past for a client that was very environmentally conscious. Pretty cool how certain home remedies work in place of bad chemicals.
i love enclosed one day ill have a setup like that. how does the wright mowers strip i test drove one from the dealership its beautiful. its like mowing with luxury lol
@@mithgo_outdoor okay sounds like a good idea. Thanks for the help! Also I really have enjoyed your jobber series. Very helpful and I’m also going to start using it for the up and coming season. Keep killing it!!
@@coltendelehanty7367 the reason I say demo them is because they SO different. Different everything except the paint lol.

Ugh, between my truck box, an 18" space in front of the box for gas cans, oil and coolant bottles and miscellaneous, and trying to run 17 bags of salt with my 28" snowblower for this past storm, I hate not having an 8 foot bed anymore 😂 I need to put a flat bed on the old girl.
I am starting a small engine repair/mobile welding business and I will not have a shop that people can come to because it will be on a relatives' property. I am either going to offer free pickup and delivery within a decent distance and/or build a decent enclosed trailer with air conditioning and heating along with a lift and small machine shop in it. I have a few weeks to get things up and going. I am in PA outside of Philadelphia and I am thinking of getting a job in the pharmaceutical industry for a while to pay the bills while I start the business and then leave as the business gains momentum. Any suggestions are welcome. I love the trailer and the setup you have and I was waiting for it..lol
Jimmy if you’re wanting a trailer for transporting vehicles definitely get a 10k gvwr V-nose and mount a winch in the front of it. 7’ ceiling height also!
@@mithgo_outdoor Awesome! Thank you. That is the information I needed. I would love to go back down to Florida . I used to live on Siesta Key when I was going to USF. Where is your business located?
@@mithgo_outdoor I have an idea that I am trying to get out to all of us in the lawn care/small engine repair/mobile welding arenas. If we all get together to purchase health insurance/ parts and anything else that we may need, the costs will be reduced immensely. Join us at Fill's small engine Nation and let's see what we can do together. What do you think? I was just down in outer banks to pick up three motorcycles(I restore vintage cycles also). Put the word out and let's see what we can do. I just have been shopping for insurance it is insanely expensive. another question, do you have good small engine repair/mobile welding people down there? God Bless.
@@jimmypopp2695 Since I now operate as a solo owner/operator health insurance coverage is no longer on the radar for me. When I had a crew working for me it was something that I had considered, but like you said the expense was too much. There are far more guys in the industry that would be a better fit for pioneering that movement. I think you have a great idea. Yes, we have many small engine repairs shops and mobile welding services. Living the 3rd largest city in North Carolina there's always an abundance of people in different professions.
When you do your 2022 setup, would you please invite the nc dot out and go over the legalities of carrying mowers, cdl's, log books, us dot numbers, tying mowers down, carrying gas cans, open trucks, trailers/ box trucks, enclosed trailers etc. There seems to be lots open to interpretation in this area. Getting hauled into court is not the time to learn such stuff. It would be a great topic.
I can clear some of this up for you. CDL, log book and USDOT # isn't required for Class C passenger vehicles under 26,000 lbs that are doing intrastate commerce. Cross over state lines, then you'll need a DOT #. Tying mower downs - you are required by state law to secure your load, failing to do so would be a violation of G.S. 20-116(g). Carrying gas cans - you can transport up to 119 gallons of gasoline without needed HAZMAT placards etc. Fuel must be transported in OSHA approved containers, usually 5 gallon cans that must read GASOLINE on the outside. Up to 8 gallon containers are acceptable as well, but they too must be OSHA approved. And your reference to trucks and trailers, that is solely up to you the business owner. You can use any style of truck or trailer that you want to...all while keeping in mind the magic number of 26,000. Hopefully this provides some clarification on these topics.
@@mithgo_outdoor Awesome set up. And I like you have all the facts laid out in the comment above. I can't believe you would have any thumbs down. You seem like a very careful, and purposeful set up and take pride in it. As you should. I am hoping to get my trailer set up similar to you. I am a lone guy who basically takes care of my own 3 properties but have picked a client here and there and want to be as neat, tidy and functional in my design as well. Thanks for sharing and good luck in your business. Rocky from NH
I don’t base my business off the number of lawns, I focus on acreage. I’m solo now and only do lane care one day a week. That’s all I want to do now. I have enough acreage to keep me busy for 8-9 hours.

Nice set up man. Greetings from Matthews NC. I also noticed your charger you got. Are you by any chance an nc state trooper? Just curious
Thank you, yes I am.
Nice so how do you manage to do lawn care full time while being a state trooper?
How do you like the tweels?? Pros and cons please
I've got nothing but good things to say about the Tweels. Better traction and not worries about flats...EVER
@@mithgo_outdoor I'm thinking about putting them on my machines
I like your enclosed trailer. In my area that used to make lawn mower trailers they put a 60 inch lawn mower in the front and it loaded it out of the right side in the front. And the other two more loaded out of the back. And they was not enclosed. But they was about 7 ft tall and 8 feet wide and 21 feet long. But they ran a two-man crew constantly. It was completely enclosed with wire. It was more centered a 2-3000 pound axles with carrying all they could. All them trailers with bought up by lawn mower people. When it went out of business. By the way how many times did you leave a gasoline can out full of water. So somebody could poured into their car. It's a funny joke
Thanks Michael. I've honestly never put water in a gasoline can for fear that the funny joke might end up being used on my equipment by mistake lol.
@@mithgo_outdoor that's just too funny
@@mithgo_outdoor I took some bad gas out of my Corvette. Left it out by my shed in the backyard. Somebody took the gas out of it and put it in their little scooter and it stopped running. They brought back the gas can. And put it back in the same spot. I was rolling I was happy to get the gas can back. Cuz I was going to have to pay for disposal fee. Lol I know one thing if you spilled gas on grass. It works like weed killer. That new antifreeze does the same thing. How much poison you think is in gasoline and antifreeze. It only takes like 2 days and it's dead
@@michaelspeakman8924 well that's one way to catch a criminal! lol
Any progress on your new shop build???
Yes sir, construction was kicked off last week. There will be an update video Feb 8th at 4pm est here on the channel.
@@mithgo_outdoor Can you send me a copy of that video or let me know what its named? I lo e following you I cant believe I missed it.
@@revfred2008 not sure what video you are speaking of sorry. The next update video will be released Monday Feb 8th at 4pm EST on the channel. Feel free to check out my "MLC Shop & Custom Home Build" playlist for previous shop update videos you might have missed.
@@mithgo_outdoor Thanks Bro, I appreciate you.
@@mithgo_outdoor You said you gave an update a while ago ok the shop build so I was checking it.
I was referring to the progress from the last video I saw which was just pouring of the foundation.
Great setup!!
Thanks so much Christopher!
@@mithgo_outdoor you’re welcome!!!
Nice stihl equipment!
Thanks 🙏🏼
Hey, do you like the tweels? Is there anything that goes wrong with the tweels? Do you have to be careful making turns?
Love the Tweels. You have to be a little more careful on soft slopes because of the sharper edge on the tread will dig in.
where do you put the mulch ?
i have a 14' dump trailer for mulch
Hazardra sent me glad to see your channel
Thanks for tuning in !!
I feel like I can cut 5 acres just as fast with my 60 vs 72, being that the 72 takes forever to turn around and you can’t go as fast sitting down,, but they are nice for huge huge properties but if you have to turn around they down save you much time,
mowing times are situational, I don't go very fast when mowing. The 72 operates just the same as a 61, no difference in turn around time (I own both). The 72 saves me a lot of time over the 61 considering I am cutting approximately 20+ inches more in two passes than with the 61.
Have u done a bypass kit on the ram yet?
Nope...I’m not doing anything that will affect the factory warranty.
@@mithgo_outdoor I don't think it does but I could be wrong. It just protects the rest of the entire fuel system "when" the bosch cp4 fuel pump grenades like they have been commonly known to do.
@@muchogracious1557 I’ll research it more
@@mithgo_outdoor I've seen some disaster stories of trucks with very low mileage and the cp4 going out and destroying the whole fuel system, fuel lines, injectors, etc. I think Ram is going back to the cp3 this year because of it.
Watching from Australia
Thanks for tuning in!
Nice setup buddy
Thanks Lopez!
Love the setup man!!
Thanks Joel!
I got a question. I am in the process of choosing STIHL 800 or 600 back pack blowers and echo back pack blowers. Which is better? The STIHL or Echo back pack blowers? I like your setup.
Do you like echo? I’ve always run stihl because I get employee discount on all stihl parts and power units lol. But I have been curious about a echo
Yes I do. I've ran both brands for years. Historically for me I've had more issues out of my Stihl equipment.
Great set up, I’m in the market for a trailer now I also have a four-door full-size truck with an 8 foot bed do you have any problems fitting between properties with the rig being so long?
the only time there were the slightest of issues was in certain neighborhoods with smaller yards. Often the rig would block driveways. Since we were there that long it wasn't ever really a problem.
Hey brother my name is Casey from OBrien Lawn Care you should try the white vinaigrer it kills the weeds and its safe for the animals i love it
hey there Casey! I've used vinegar in the past for a client that was very environmentally conscious. Pretty cool how certain home remedies work in place of bad chemicals.
Yeah i hear that
you have a great setup brother 👊
Thanks buddy!
i love enclosed one day ill have a setup like that. how does the wright mowers strip i test drove one from the dealership its beautiful. its like mowing with luxury lol
The Wright mowers stripe wonderfully! Check out my IG profile for many images on this topic.
@@mithgo_outdoor already did thanks boss. Hoping to upgrade this summer
ZXT 72 looks legit
She’s a beast!
Looking to buy a Wright for the first time. Would you recommend the stander x or stander zk?
They're two completely different mowers. Depends on what you're wanting out of it. I would highly suggest demoing both of them before you purchase.
@@mithgo_outdoor okay sounds like a good idea. Thanks for the help! Also I really have enjoyed your jobber series. Very helpful and I’m also going to start using it for the up and coming season. Keep killing it!!
@@coltendelehanty7367 the reason I say demo them is because they SO different. Different everything except the paint lol. Thanks for tuning in to the Jobber series and I'm glad that it has been helpful. There will be a lot more episodes coming out in that series. Don't forget that when you go to sign up use the link in my video description so you can save some money! If you ever have any questions about the software don't hesitate to send me an email.
@@mithgo_outdoor thanks man I appreciate everything and I definitely will keep you in mind if I have any questions!!
Nice set up buddy!
Thank you!! I really appreciate it and thanks for tuning in
What shift do you work as trooper? I use to work 2nd with Sheriff's Dept.
2nd as well. Thanks for tuning in to the channel Will
Awesome set up man. How's the tam truck?
love my truck!
@mithgo_outdoor awesome I got one I like pretty good. Just hate the recalls.
Cool Lawn Care Setup
thank you
You Welcome
Ugh, between my truck box, an 18" space in front of the box for gas cans, oil and coolant bottles and miscellaneous, and trying to run 17 bags of salt with my 28" snowblower for this past storm, I hate not having an 8 foot bed anymore 😂 I need to put a flat bed on the old girl.
Sounds like it is time for an upgrade!!
@@mithgo_outdoor indeed.
Shout out from Thomasville !😊👋
Hey hey !! Thanks for stopping by
A Swiss Army Knife is right! Very nice setup brother! That arsenal looks great. Just curious, what did you paint the floor with?
thanks Matthew. I used RustOleum Deck Restore. It was done back in 2016. I believe the product has been discontinued.
I am starting a small engine repair/mobile welding business and I will not have a shop that people can come to because it will be on a relatives' property. I am either going to offer free pickup and delivery within a decent distance and/or build a decent enclosed trailer with air conditioning and heating along with a lift and small machine shop in it. I have a few weeks to get things up and going. I am in PA outside of Philadelphia and I am thinking of getting a job in the pharmaceutical industry for a while to pay the bills while I start the business and then leave as the business gains momentum. Any suggestions are welcome. I love the trailer and the setup you have and I was waiting for it..lol
Jimmy if you’re wanting a trailer for transporting vehicles definitely get a 10k gvwr V-nose and mount a winch in the front of it. 7’ ceiling height also!
@@mithgo_outdoor Awesome! Thank you. That is the information I needed. I would love to go back down to Florida . I used to live on Siesta Key when I was going to USF. Where is your business located?
@@jimmypopp2695 High Point NC
@@mithgo_outdoor I have an idea that I am trying to get out to all of us in the lawn care/small engine repair/mobile welding arenas. If we all get together to purchase health insurance/ parts and anything else that we may need, the costs will be reduced immensely. Join us at Fill's small engine Nation and let's see what we can do together. What do you think? I was just down in outer banks to pick up three motorcycles(I restore vintage cycles also). Put the word out and let's see what we can do. I just have been shopping for insurance it is insanely expensive. another question, do you have good small engine repair/mobile welding people down there? God Bless.
@@jimmypopp2695 Since I now operate as a solo owner/operator health insurance coverage is no longer on the radar for me. When I had a crew working for me it was something that I had considered, but like you said the expense was too much. There are far more guys in the industry that would be a better fit for pioneering that movement. I think you have a great idea.
Yes, we have many small engine repairs shops and mobile welding services. Living the 3rd largest city in North Carolina there's always an abundance of people in different professions.
When you do your 2022 setup, would you please invite the nc dot out and go over the legalities of carrying mowers, cdl's, log books, us dot numbers, tying mowers down, carrying gas cans, open trucks, trailers/ box trucks, enclosed trailers etc. There seems to be lots open to interpretation in this area. Getting hauled into court is not the time to learn such stuff. It would be a great topic.
I can clear some of this up for you. CDL, log book and USDOT # isn't required for Class C passenger vehicles under 26,000 lbs that are doing intrastate commerce. Cross over state lines, then you'll need a DOT #. Tying mower downs - you are required by state law to secure your load, failing to do so would be a violation of G.S. 20-116(g). Carrying gas cans - you can transport up to 119 gallons of gasoline without needed HAZMAT placards etc. Fuel must be transported in OSHA approved containers, usually 5 gallon cans that must read GASOLINE on the outside. Up to 8 gallon containers are acceptable as well, but they too must be OSHA approved. And your reference to trucks and trailers, that is solely up to you the business owner. You can use any style of truck or trailer that you want to...all while keeping in mind the magic number of 26,000. Hopefully this provides some clarification on these topics.
@@mithgo_outdoor Awesome set up. And I like you have all the facts laid out in the comment above. I can't believe you would have any thumbs down. You seem like a very careful, and purposeful set up and take pride in it. As you should. I am hoping to get my trailer set up similar to you. I am a lone guy who basically takes care of my own 3 properties but have picked a client here and there and want to be as neat, tidy and functional in my design as well. Thanks for sharing and good luck in your business. Rocky from NH
Very nice
Thanks, I appreciate you tuning in.
Enjoy your videos always learn something that helps!
@@jls7006 that’s wonderful to hear, thank you!
How many laws do you cut a week
I don’t base my business off the number of lawns, I focus on acreage. I’m solo now and only do lane care one day a week. That’s all I want to do now. I have enough acreage to keep me busy for 8-9 hours.
@@joshslawnmaintenancellc1012 from 2016-2019 I had 3 full time employees. MLC LLC is just part-time for me now. It's not all I do. I encourage you to check out some interviews I did with the Green Industry Podcast, Fullerton Unfiltered or LCR Media. You'll learn everything you care to know about MLC LLC and more!
Greg . You said alot of equipment for one person . What happened to crew?
Hello, not sure who Greg is. I scaled back my business from full time to part time in 2020.
Nice setup
thank you
Remember me when your UA-cam famous Mitchell
😂 man you crazy! I’m the one over here wanting your autograph!
So nice... 😎👍🏼
thank you!!
I must've missed something, where is the 72 ZK
Traded it for the ZXT
The ZK72 is listed for sale on Facebook marketplace. It is currently out in my shed waiting for a buyer.
Why roundup and RM43?
Two different products for different jobs. They’re not the same.
@@mithgo_outdoor ok...so what differentiates them if the final goal is plant death?
@@dskrpncs has to do with where you are spraying. Google both and read the facts of each...you’ll see. They’re not the same.
@@mithgo_outdoor now I see...Glysophate neutralizes once it hits the soil where rm43 creates a lasting barrier. Guess the only time I wouldn't use rm43 is when I am spraying in a garden or in a lawn.
@@dskrpncs BINGO! I use RM43 for sidewalks, driveways, fence lines, parking lots etc...anything away from plants/trees.
New sub nice stuff i run husqvarna
