For over 60 years, Yard Machines® has been committed to building outdoor power equipment that helps you get yard work done efficiently. Our wide range of products, including lawn mowers, snow blowers, rototillers, and more are designed for reliability, durability and simplicity. At Yard Machines®, we appreciate that you work hard, and we build our machines to work just as hard for you.
Our History

Yard Machines® was founded in 1958 with a simple goal – build outdoor power equipment that helps people take care of their yards. We started out making push lawn mowers, then expanded our lineup to include riding mowers, snow blowers, tillers and other yard maintenance tools.
In the 1980s, Yard Machines® was acquired by MTD Products, a family company that shared our commitment to building quality, affordable equipment. Together, we continued to innovate and add new products, while staying true to the Yard Machines® mission of helping people get yard work done.
Today, Yard Machines® remains one of MTD’s most trusted and recognized brands. Our equipment is sold at retailers nationwide and continues to earn a reputation for dependability and value. Behind every Yard Machines® product is over half a century of experience building tools that work as hard as you do.
Our Equipment
The Yard Machines® lineup includes something for every size yard and every maintenance need. Here are some of our most popular products:
- Lawn Mowers – Our push mowers, self-propelled mowers, and riding mowers are built tough to handle yard maintenance with ease. Features like 11 gauge steel decks, mulching capability, and variable speed transmissions give you a great cut every time.
- Snow Blowers – When winter comes, Yard Machines® snow blowers will clear sidewalks, driveways and paths with the power of 2-stage, 3-stage and 4-stage auger systems. Our blowers are designed to handle heavy snowfall and save you time and effort.
- Rototillers – Make quick work of turning over soil in your garden beds with our rear-tine and front-tine rototillers. Engine options up to 8HP give you all the power you need to churn through tough ground.
- Chipper Shredders – Turn branches, leaves and debris into nutritious mulch for your garden using Yard Machines® wood chippers. Models available for light and heavy-duty chipping.
- Cultivators & Edgers – Keep planting beds and walkways neat with these specialized tools. Yard Machines® cultivators aerate soil while edgers cut crisp borders along paths and driveways.
- String Trimmers – Trim grass and weeds anywhere with our gas-powered straight shaft and curved shaft string trimmers. Options include attachments for edging, pruning and sweeping too.
