We get it – shopping for a new mower, snowblower, or piece of yard equipment is a big purchase. Whether you’re shopping for your home or your business, you want to make sure you’re getting the best value for your dollar.
At United Ag & Turf, we’ve been helping our customers purchase and maintain their equipment throughout our many locations in Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island & Vermont. While we have combined many different dealer groups throughout the northeast region, we have still maintained that local dealership feel. Our customers keep coming back to us instead of the big box stores because they know we have their backs. Here are the reasons why it’s better to purchase from your local John Deere dealer rather than a big box store:
Expert Knowledge in the Equipment
At a big box store, the person helping you out on your huge tractor purchase might be the local kid down the street who just got his first job at ten bucks an hour. If you need guidance on the complex inner workings of the machinery or which model among many might be best for your specific needs, chances are that person won’t have the in-depth experience to give you the best advice.
At a dealer like United Ag & Turf, our staff knows all of our equipment and models inside and out. We’ve seen it all, and we’re here to give you expert opinion on what machine works best for your property size, terrain, and unique lawn maintenance needs.
No Middleman Means a More Efficient Buying Experience
Did you purchase your last tractor from one of the big box home maintenance stores near your home? Chances are, we at United Ag & Turf actually fulfilled the order for you. These stores essentially act as the middleman when selling tractors, snow blowers, and many pieces of lawn equipment. When you purchase directly from us, you cut out the middleman and save yourself time, headache, and often a few dollars, thanks to our frequent factory rebates and discounts. Coming straight to the dealer means you get expert advice, guidance, and customer service right from the start.
Get Access to Exclusive Models Not Available in Other Places
Since they sell SO many categories of inventory from lightbulbs to paint to gardening tools, big box stores have limited space and tight sales margins – they’re only going to carry a limited number of lawn equipment machines that they know will sell well across the entire region or country. If you have specific needs for your property, that one-size-fits-all approach isn’t going to work for you.
At dealerships like United Ag & Turf, we have access to a larger pool of inventory that is shared throughout our locations. Also we have access to the entire range of products and from our partners at John Deere, STIHL, Honda, Ariens, and more. Need a snow plow attachment for your tractor? No problem, it’s not going to be a complicated special order. Have a big horse farm with lots of boxes to check with the equipment you’re buying? Our team is able to recommend the exact thing you need, not just whatever happens to be in stock.
Special Financing and John Deere Rewards
When our dedicated customers find out we have a John Deere rewards program, it’s like Christmas morning. Become a John Deere rewards member and take advantage of special savings on john Deere parts, equipment, merchandise, and more. Add affiliations to upgrade your Rewards membership and unlock discounts. And, get exclusive special offers while also being the first to know about new John Deere products, services, technology and events.
When making a large purchase, we’re also able to offer special financing directly through John Deere that big box stores can’t.
Expert Maintenance and Machine Setup
When we get an order, our in-house, factory-trained technicians put together your machine for you. These guys are unmatched experts at what they do – you wouldn’t want anyone else setting up your shiny, new, expensive piece of lawn equipment.
When it’s time for maintenance, those same techs tune up your machine and diagnose any issues. We’re even able to arrange pickup and dropoff of your machine for you for maintenance or service – try getting that at a big box store!
With the combined expertise of several dealer groups throughout the Northeast, we’ve served tens of thousands of happy customers from New York to Maine. Ready to shop for your new lawn equipment? Check out our online shop here, or stop into your nearest United Ag & Turf location today.
