Tailgate Mulcher Model 18 & 20 Specifications

Our trademark unit, the Tailgate Mulcher has been the leading compact straw blower for the landscaper and rental market for the last 20 years. Throughout this time, the Tailgate Mulcher has experienced constant improvements in design and function, yet still maintains the same high quality performance and durability as our earliest units.

The Tailgate Mulcher Model 18/20’s compact design allows for the user to easily transport the unit in the bed of their truck or trailer or mounted on our own custom trailer. The Tailgate Mulcher is ideal for all small to mid-size, typically 1-5 acre erosion control jobs, new home construction, lawn installation, roadside projects, and even farming & agriculture. Equipment rental stores find the Tailgate Mulcher to be an ideal product for their equipment fleet as a straw blower is an ideal follow up machine behind any dirt works or excavating projects. With increasing EPA regulations and sediment control issues, blown straw applications such as with the Tailgate Mulcher prove to be ideal preventative and erosion control measures.
