Tillers for Your Farm or Garden 

Using a tiller is recommended before planting in hard ground. Doing so helps to break up the hard ground, bring new soil to the surface and can even help remove weeds. By tilling your soil, you give your plants or crops more moisture and help them have the best chance of thriving. We carry an assortment of tillers for you to choose from, with different options including:

Power Type

Tillers can have different power types depending on their design. We have tillers with different power types so you can choose the best option for you. If you’re only planning to use your tiller in your garden, you can opt for an electric tiller, which needs a power source and tends to be less powerful than gas options. If you have a farm or large area, a gas-powered tiller can be better because they are more powerful and don’t need a power source other than fuel. We also have manual options if that’s what you prefer. 

Frame Material

Tillers are durable tools that help break up hard ground, so they need to be built with heavy-duty materials that can withstand rugged use. We carry tillers in different frame materials, including metal options, such as steel, in addition to plastic options, so you can choose the best fit for your terrain type. 

Brand

Whenever you buy a tool or product for your garden or farm, you want to be able to trust that it will work dependably. That’s why we only sell products from brands we have carefully vetted, ensuring the highest product quality and your satisfaction. Browse tillers from top brands, including Troy-Bilt, Toro, Earthquake and many more.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tillers

What is the difference between a front- and rear-tine tiller?

Tillers come in two main designs, and they have different purposes. With forward rotations, front-line tillers are more compact and simpler to use around obstacles and in hard-to-reach spots. On the other hand, rear-line tillers have tines that rotate in the opposite direction when moving it forward, making them ideal for tilling rocky or compacted soil. Front-tine tillers tend to be better suited for use in gardens and smaller areas, while rear-tine tillers can dig deeper and are best for larger areas.

What is the difference between a tiller and a cultivator?

They both help prepare the soil, but a tiller is used for breaking up hard ground and loosening soil, while a cultivator is used to mix up soil that is already loose. Cultivators can also be used to remove weeds and add or spread fertilizer.
