Need to mow a small urban lawn or a large overgrown field?
Lawn maintenance requires equipment adapted to the surface area and topography. Using a small electric mower on 1000m² is exhausting, while a gas model requires constant mechanical maintenance (spark plugs, oil changes, winterizing).
With Poppins, solve the logistics equation. Our app aggregates available stock for the first time: mowers from your neighbors, offers from garden centers, and fleets from professional rental companies. The result? You find a high-performance machine just steps away, often accessible without a car.
Where can I find a mower quickly?
Although Poppins covers the entire country of France, you have a 95% chance of finding a device within 15 minutes of your location if you live in Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Nantes, Lille, Toulouse, or Marseille. In these cities, the density of our network (neighbors + partner retailers) guarantees immediate choice.
Is it worth buying a lawn mower?
The math is simple. With an extremely low rental price (avg €7), it takes over 30 mows to break even on a purchase. For seasonal use, renting is unbeatable and frees up your garage.
On the Poppins app, you will find a wide range of mowers adapted to every garden.For urban gardens (<300m²), choose an electric mower (corded or battery) offered by a neighbor: light, quiet, and maintenance-free.For medium surfaces (300-1000m²), opt for a self-propelled gas mower (available from our pro partners or equipped individuals). It moves itself and won't stall in tall grass.Finally, for large grounds (>1500m²), rent a ride-on mower (tractor) or try the convenience of a robot mower.
Which mower should I choose?
On the Poppins app, the choice depends on your area:
- Electric / Battery Mower: Ideal for small areas (< 500m²). Quiet, light, and easy to maneuver. Watch out for battery life or cord length!
- Self-Propelled Gas Mower: The king of medium to large gardens (> 500m²). Powerful, it cuts dense grass and helps you move forward (traction). Remember to check the fuel type.
- Ride-on Mower (Tractor): For very large grounds. You sit on it, it's fast and less tiring. Available from our professional rental partners.
