The story of Smart-Barrow began in the summer of 2020 when Ben Esh, owner of Esh Lawncare, sought ways to improve the efficiency of his mulching operations. Like many businesses post-pandemic, labor costs were rising, forcing companies to either raise prices, become more efficient, or both. Ben had already streamlined loading wheelbarrows by building a self-unloading mulch trailer in 2013, but he needed something better for job sites.
In 2021, Esh Lawncare purchased an articulating loader, which was an improvement over traditional wheelbarrows, but it couldn’t access certain areas, especially in wet conditions. Seeking other options, Ben found that powered buggies had the same disadvantages as the loader and the available electric wheelbarrows weren’t durable enough for landscaping demands.
Driven by necessity, Ben decided to create his own solution, an electric-powered wheelbarrow. After sourcing a few components and fabricating the rest, the first Smart-barrow prototype was built in late 2022. It exceeded expectations, holding up well to rigorous testing. By spring 2023, after some refinements, a few kits were distributed to local landscapers, all of whom had positive experiences with Ben’s engineered electric-powered wheelbarrow. Official production began in fall 2023, and since then, Smart-barrow kits have been making work easier for landscapers everywhere!
