What is a Bed Edger?

A bed edger is a landscaping tool used to create a neat and defined edge between a lawn and a flower bed or other landscaping feature.  This type of tool is designed with a bottom blade that is used to cut into the earth to create a sharp edge that can be filled with mulch or soil.

  • Gas-powered models offer more power and are usually more durable, while electric edger models are typically quieter and more lightweight. 
  • Bed edgers are ideal for homeowners or professionals looking to give their lawns a professional and well-manicured look.  By creating a sharp edge between the lawn and flower beds, the edging tool not only enhances the visual appeal of your landscaping, but also serves an important practical purpose.  The edge created by the edger helps to keep water, dirt, and other debris from spilling into the flower bed.  This can ruin the look of your lawn, and cause damage to the plants.
  • The bed edger also helps to keep grass, weeds, and other unwanted plants from spreading into the flower bed.  Overall, bed edgers are a great tool for anyone looking to give their lawn a neat and tidy look.  
  • Whether you’re a homeowner or a professional landscaper, the edging tool is an essential piece of equipment for creating a well-defined edge between lawn and flower beds.  With the right model, you can easily and quickly give your lawn a professionally finished look.

Bed Edger Care:

Taking care of a bed edger is an important part of keeping your lawn looking neat and manicured. Proper maintenance and care of your bed edger will help keep it in tip-top shape, allowing you to make a crisp edge every time. Here are some tips for keeping your bed edger in great condition:

  • Check for Wear and Tear: Regularly inspect the blades of your bed edger for any signs of wear and tear. If the blades are worn or dull, it is important to replace them as soon as possible before they cause any damage to your lawn.
  • Clean the Blades: After using your bed edger, make sure you clean the blades with a damp cloth. This will help remove any dirt or debris that has collected on the blades, and will also keep them sharper, longer.
  • Sharpen the Blades: It is important to sharpen the blades of your bed edger on a regular basis. This will help ensure you are able to make a crisp and clean cut each time you use the edger.
  • Store Properly: When not in use, it is important to store your bed edger in a dry place that is out of direct sunlight. This will keep the blades in good condition, and will also help protect the edger from moisture and rust.

Following these tips will help to ensure your bed edger is always in top condition, and will keep your lawn looking neat and well-manicured all year round.

Edgers for Homeowners: 

Residential edgers or homeowner edgers, are typically smaller and less powerful than commercial edgers and are designed for use in smaller yards or gardens. 

  • They are generally less expensive than commercial edgers and are often powered by electricity or gas. 
  • Residential edgers are perfect for jobs around the home and in your yard.  Accent your landscaping features by creating a clean and defined edge around mulch beds, trees, sidewalk, hardscape feature and landscape features.  Having a crisp and clean edge will also help you use the correct amount of material in your bed, and save you on the cost of excess mulch, stone, gravel etc. 
  • Residential edgers or homeowner edgers, can easily be stored in your garage or tool shed.  Along with proper maintenance and care, storing these edgers correctly after use will extend the life and functionality of your machine.

Commercial Edgers:

Commercial edgers are larger and more powerful than residential edgers, and are designed for use in larger areas such as parks, golf courses, and other commercial properties. 

  • They are generally more expensive than residential edgers, and are often powered by gas. 
  • Commercial edgers are also designed to be more durable and long-lasting than edgers for home use, as they are used more frequently and for longer periods of time.  
  • Commercial edgers are a must have for any landscape contractor with  large jobs.  Unlike residential edgers, commercial edgers are often taken from job site to job site and have to be more durable to meet such demands. 
  • Commercial edgers are often much bigger than edgers used for home use, because they enable professional landscapers to cover more ground, more efficiently.
