Question:

I will be starting a small lawn service. My Push mower width is 31.9. Will it fit on this ? Also do yo think it is possible to add a weed trimmer rack and a blower rack to it?

The usable dimensions of the tray part of cargo carrier # PS10401-10402 are 47-3/4 inches long by 31-3/4 inches wide by 2-3/4 inches deep. Since the mower width is 31.9 inches it would be just a little too wide to fit on this carrier. But this carrier is still the best option since none of the others are as wide. The mower would have to sit and a slight angle to fit.

Adding any sort of trimmer or blower rack to he carrier would require modification and/or drilling into the carrier which would void the warranty and could compromise its structural integrity so I do not recommend it.

Ideally you would use a small trailer for all of your equipment. This might not be feasible just starting out but as your business grows it is something to look into. Then you could add a rack such as # PK-6-OP1 which holds 3 trimmers, a blower, cooler, and trimmer line spool.
