When it comes to versatility, it’s hard to beat a John Deere compact tractor. For homeowners and landscapers, machines like the John Deere 1023E, 1025R, and 2025R are ideal for everything from mowing and grading to hauling mulch and light tillage. With the right attachments–like a loader, box blade, or rotary cutter–you can handle nearly every aspect of spring cleaning and landscaping.
Why you should consider buying used:

If you’re working in tight spaces or need high maneuverability, a used skid steer or track loader will be a great addition to your tool kit. Models like the John Deere 317G or 320G offer plenty of lifting power and a wide range of available attachments like buckets, trenchers, landscape rakes, and more.
Quick tip: tracked equipment has the advantage when working in muddy spring conditions. Keep this in mind when considering the best option for your property.
