In partnership with reBHS, and the Brandon Energy Committee, patrons can check out EGO battery-operated lawn tools.
In each tool ship you’ll find a 21″ mower, a string trimmer and a leaf blower. One of them also contains a hedge trimmer. In the winter months you’ll find a snowblower and snow shovel also from EGO.
To gain entry to the Toolships, you’ll need to make sure your cell phone number is the primary number on your BFPL account. If you don’t have a cell phone, no worries- see a librarian and we’ll help you with access.
