The new deal covers all Toro machinery with no exclusions – from greens or fairway mowers, out-front rotaries and robotic mowers to aerators and utility vehicles – and is open to all UK customers.
New Buy Now, Pay Later offer on all Toro machinery
Jon Cole, Divisional Business Manager of Reesink Turfcare, explains the reasons behind this choice: “For many clubs and businesses, the end of the year can be a challenging time for cash flow: budgets have already been allocated while fleets and resources are often stretched.”
“This new offer means customers can plan ahead with confidence and order the latest Toro machinery today, without any payments until May next year.”
By acting now, customers can also avoid any potential price increases while upgrading their fleet before the next season begins, leveraging Toro’s latest machines to maintain optimal turf quality through the coming months and begin spring maintenance in the best possible way.
However, to meet a broad range of budgetary needs, Reesink continues to provide its usual selection of finance deals, which allow businesses to replace even a whole Toro fleet with an easily manageable upfront cost.
Short-term cash flow constraints don’t have to hold you back from using the best machines the turf and groundscare industries have to offer. With Reesink’s support and competitive financial packages, you can do more without touching your current budget to achieve the high turf standards your customers have come to expect.
For more details about the new Buy Now, Pay Later interest-free deal, visit www.reesinkturfcare.co.uk or call 01480 226800 to speak to a Reesink Turfcare representative.

Available for the 2025/26 planting season, Tubex’s standard shelters of all heights, including its Shrubshelter and Easywrap range, will all contain a minimum of 50% recycled material, with an increasing proportion of that recycled content coming directly from used shelters recycled through Tubex’s Collection & Recycling Programme.
Tubex Tree Shelters Now Made with Minimum 50% Recycled Content
This latest improvement forms part of the manufacturer’s wider goal of improving the sustainability proposition for tree shelters as Dean Latten, Tubex’s Plant Director, explains:
“It was always our goal to maximise the amount of recycled content in our shelters, but we needed to ensure that we could manufacture consistently at that increased level. Thanks to a brilliant effort from our team in Aberdare, we are now able to do this.
“This is the same leading recyclable shelter range that thousands of landowners and foresters trust, just made with more recycled material. We’re always looking for ways to improve what we offer, and this is another step in the right direction for us.”
Tubex recycled shelters have the lowest carbon footprint in our range and are 100% recyclable at end of life. This closed-loop system enables contractors and landowners to minimise waste, meet regulatory requirements and reduce the long-term impact of their planting projects.

The out-front rotary mower is considered by most groundscare professionals as an essential frontline machine and Toro, in its constant quest for providing ultra-productive and sustainable solutions for its customers, has developed an all-wheel drive electric version with the proven performance of the brand’s popular all-wheel drive diesel model.
Toro’s out-front electric rotary now all-wheel drive
At its core, there’s everything that makes the traditional Groundsmaster an industry favourite – the same rugged chassis, commercial-grade mowing deck and operator comfort, but now with CrossTrax all-wheel drive optimising traction and the option of a 60- or 72-inch side or rear discharge deck built from high-strength steel.
Under the hood there’s 11 powerful HyperCell batteries for all-day runtime and the option of adding another six batteries for the most challenging environments, tough terrain, and demanding schedules.
Operation is now emission-free for a cleaner environment and it’s quieter. Reduced noise levels open up the options for when and where mowing can take place: earlier in the morning, later in the day, in sound sensitive areas like schools, university campuses and public parks – making time management that much easier and productivity levels that much higher.
When it’s time to head back to the charging station, a battery reserve setting ensures there’s enough power to get there and the onboard InfoCentre gives real-time visibility into battery status, settings, and alerts — keeping range anxiety at bay and everything running smoothly.
Jon Cole, Business Development Manager – Reesink Turfcare, says: “There’s no difference in the machine’s ability to get the job done with the change in the power supply – it’s more that with the CrossTrax all-wheel drive, operators are going to see a huge leap in productivity. Customers can still expect to mow up to nine acres an hour and it still provides a solid solution to many of the issues groundscare professionals face today: reduced mowing cycles, limited budgets and the requirement for year-round productivity.”
Customers can contact Reesink to arrange a demo at their site at a convenient time simply by contenting their local dealer or Reesink on 01480 226800 or visit reesinkturfcare.co.uk.
