PERC develops online resource for landscaping contractors

The Propane Education & Research Council (PERC) launched the Propane Equipment Dealer Point, an online search tool that allows commercial landscaping contractors to find nearby dealers offering propane-powered mowers.

The online tool benefits contractors by helping them to find local propane equipment dealers, PERC says.

“Until now, it took a lot of work for contractors to find a location to buy propane mowers and for dealers to find a contractor looking at alternative fuel equipment,” says Jeremy Wishart, PERC’s deputy director of business development. “Providing the contact information of dealers in a way that is easy to search will ease the frustration of digging through OEM dealer locators that may not offer propane models.”

Propane equipment dealers can sign up for free to be listed as a dealer on the website. According to PERC, dealers listed on the website can access educational materials on propane equipment, as well as facts on the benefits of the fuel.
