They are designed to protect everything from a driveway, concrete slab or patio, sidewalk, sod, and anything else that may endure tires or workers’ foot traffic.

Among the many options at Greatmats, the clear 4x8 Ground Protection Mats for landscapers are among the best.

Chris Axel of Axel Landscaping also makes protecting lawns a top priority.

These constantly had to be replaced as plywood gets compromised once wet.

Because protecting lawns is one of his top priorities, he knew he needed a better solution. That’s when he purchased the ground protection mats. He immediately noticed how much better they performed than plywood does, and could instantly envision being able to drive a dump truck right across a protected lawn to dump a load of dirt where needed.

Chris loves the fact that the mats can be linked together, making turning in equipment a breeze. He finds the ground protection mats for landscapers to be a product that saves time, energy, and hassle as they will not break, splinter, waterlog, or warp. Chris feels the investment of these mats is worth every penny.

Greatmats - for the best ground protection mats for landscapers!

Perhaps you are new to the world of ground protection mats, and like the Greatmats customers featured above, you’ve previously used or considered using plywood as a ground protection solution. Although plywood can be used in this way, it doesn’t hold up well once it gets wet and weighted down. It also doesn’t always provide adequate traction, and it can’t support as much weight - should the need to drive a truck across a lawn arise. Plywood moves around more easily and it is slippery, so the lawn sometimes gets damaged, anyways. Once the plywood has been used for a few projects, it also will need to be replaced and can leave debris behind as it breaks down.
