Maxner Landscaping Succeeds With Westchester Tractor

Business Calendar

Nearly the entire fleet of construction equipment owned by Maxner Landscaping, with the exception of trucks, was purchased at Westchester Tractor in Brewster, N.Y.

“As I grew up in this area working for other companies it was almost automatic,” Maxner said. “If you bought equipment, you went down to Westchester Tractor who, at that time, was located in Goldens Bridge, N.Y, to buy your equipment. Since then, they moved their operations to Brewster, N.Y.

“They were perfect for our type of operation,” he added. “They sell the smaller machines like mowers from Kubota that we still need today and definitely needed when we were starting up.As we grew, we bought our woodchippers, our Hitachi loaders, as well as our Kobelco excavators from Westchester Tractor.”

Maxner Landscaping specializes in residential and commercial landscaping, tree planting, excavation and trucking. In the winter months, the company has a considerable snow removal business.

The company was founded by John Maxner 40 years ago. Maxner, who got his business started as a young man essentially mowing lawns, had some experience in property maintenance and landscaping working for his dad, but eventually he ventured out on his own. Through hard work and strategic planning, the company grew way beyond landscape and property maintenance.

Today, the company owns a fleet of earthmoving equipment and does site excavation, foundation work and property clearing. Besides homeowners, its landscape and lawn maintenance customers include local school districts, as well as condo and apartment complexes.

Maxner has a significant crew, but he still at times operates all of the equipment himself and he has become knowledgeable and comfortable with the earthmoving equipment.

“I am very happy with the Hitachi loader,” he said. “It loads dirt and mulch for us most of the year and salt and sand in the winter months. It’s a very reliable machine, very quiet operating engine and pretty much bullet proof.

“Snow removal has become a huge part of our business. To maintain the landscaping contract with some of our bigger customers it has become a necessary evil.

“The snow removal contracts are very demanding on your time and resources. Our equipment has to be in great working order. That’s why we also bought five Kage snow pushers from Westchester Tractor. It’s the only snow pusher on the market that I’m see MAXNER page 86
