- Pittsburg Unified School District, California
Product:
Pegasus S5
When the Pittsburgh Unified School District set out to improve the quality and efficiency of its grounds maintenance, Director of Maintenance Operations & Transportation, Matthew Belasco, knew they needed a solution that delivered both exceptional results and long-term cost savings.
Find out how Trimax has helped the Pittsburg Unified School District increase quality and reduce costs.
The Background
Pittsburg Unified School District maintains 13 school sites, 3 ancillary sites, and over 180 acres of turf. With such a large footprint, the district relied on multiple ride-on mowers that often broke down, overheated, and consumed excessive time and resources.
The Challenge
One of the biggest benefits for Shane has been the low maintenance design. “The maintenance on them is pretty much nothing. It’s no brainer compared to all the other brands that we had,” he says. With self-tensioning belts, longer blade life, and low maintenance bearings, Trimax mowers cut down on time-consuming upkeep, freeing up time for what matters.
Bigger, Better, Faster
- Frequent downtime due to breakdowns and overheating
- High maintenance costs and resource strain
- Inconsistent turf quality compared to expectations
- Mowing schedules stretched across a full week
- Needed dependable equipment that fit within tight school district budgets
The Trimax Solution
After evaluating several options, the district adopted the Trimax Pegasus S5 tow-behind mower. The mower’s dependability, ease of use, and proven performance made it the clear choice.
“The feedback from the team that actually operates this on a daily basis has really been fantastic. They enjoy using the equipment and come away with a product they can be proud of.” – Matthew Belasco, Director of Maintenance & Operations.
