University Lawn

Don’t let the snow on the ground fool you. Spring time in Michigan is just around the corner.
University Lawn Equipment Company, conveniently located near I-75, M-59 and M-24 in Pontiac, is ready to get you set for spring lawn mowing, hedge trimming and a variety of other outdoor activities. In business since 1945, University Lawn is co-owned by Joel Wicker and Mark Waite, who keep their store well-stocked with leafblowers, snowblowers, chainsaws, water pumps, generators and chippers. University Lawn also has some construction equipment, such as cut-off saws.
“Much of our business is dependent on the weather, but regardless of weather, one thing’s for sure. Your grass will still grow, and you’ll have to cut it once a week for 26 weeks,” says Wicker.
University Lawn offers brands such as: Simplicity, Snapper, Stihl, Homelite, and GiantVac. The store also sells used ATVs, new Alpha Sport ATVs, Brister and Manco go-carts, and Tanaka (Blade Z) Powerboards.
The store services homeowners, landscapers, construction companies and government and local municipalities.
“Many people work around here, but live north,” says Wicker. “So it’s handy to stop by after work…it’s easy to get to.”
Now is the time to get your equipment ready for spring. Wicker says University Lawn always experiences a rush of business in April and May, sometimes causing delays for people anxious to get mowing.
“I advise people to get ready early,” he says. “If you’re tired of patching that old machine and making it limp through another season, come in and buy a new one.”
University Lawn is competitively priced, and has a knowledgeable service staff, which is something Wicker says keeps his customers coming back.
“Our people have been around for a long time, and they have a lot of experience,” he says. “Our goal is to satisfy the customer. We appreciate our customers, and they’re valuable to us.”
University Lawn offers pick up for servicing equipment and delivery on your newly purchased item from an extensive showroom display.
Wicker says people should bring their lawn equipment in for servicing as soon as possible.
“That way, you don’t have to worry about getting it ready when you see the grass growing,” he says.
University Lawn is located one mile west of Opdyke Road and 1 1/2 miles west of I-75. The store is open Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m.; and Saturday, 8:30 a.m.-3 p.m.
The phone number is (248) 373-7220.
