Picked by Darin Chamberlin. In 42 years of landscape contracting, Darin has worked hand in hand with roofers, plumbers, remodelers, tree crews and storm repair pros, because every outdoor project depends on the trades around it. This artificial turf store grew out of that work. It isn't a venture capital deal, it's gear Darin has seen get the job done.

Local picks for Des Moines

Central Iowa turf sees freeze-thaw winters and a heavy fall leaf load. Keep it brushed, clear leaves before they mat, and shovel snow gently.

ORIENTOOLS artificial-turf rake

ORIENTOOLS artificial-turf rake

An artificial-turf rake supports grooming and loose-debris removal on approved turf fibers.

Check turf-manufacturer approval for the rake head and fibers.

Snow Joe snow shovel with assist handle

Snow Joe snow shovel with assist handle

A shovel with an 18-inch blade and a second assist handle that lets you lift with your arms and legs instead of your back.

On artificial turf, shovel gently and leave a thin layer of snow so the blade never digs into the fibers or infill.

EGO Power+ 650 CFM cordless leaf blower (LB6504)

EGO Power+ 650 CFM cordless leaf blower (LB6504)

A 56-volt cordless leaf blower rated 650 CFM, sold with a battery, for clearing heavy fall leaves and storm debris.

A black hideaway two-way radio base unit with a short antenna and a green status light, next to a wireless handheld microphone

Featured: Picked by Darin

Midland MXT295 15W GMRS mobile radio with Bluetooth mic

Talk across a big job site, from the truck to the far side of the yard, without walking back or yelling over the equipment. 15 watts (5-watt low setting), IP67 sealed against dust and water, automatic noise canceling, 22 GMRS + 8 repeater channels and 154 privacy codes, PA and intercom, and NOAA weather alerts. The hideaway base unit tucks out of sight and runs off a DC vehicle adapter.

Using GMRS in the US needs an FCC license: no test, $35 for 10 years, and one license covers your immediate family. Anyone outside your family needs their own.

Five black GLOBAL-PTT handheld radios with screens showing WiFi, 4G LTE, GPS and SOS icons

Crew radios over cell networks

global-ptt 5-pack 4G LTE / WiFi push-to-talk radios

Five push-to-talk radios that talk over 4G LTE or WiFi instead of radio range, so a crew spread across town (or across job sites) can still reach each other. Each one comes with a pre-installed SIM card, GPS and an SOS button, in an IP67 case that floats if it gets dropped in water.

Needs cell or WiFi coverage to work. Check the current price, coverage and platform terms on Amazon before ordering.
