Why we recommend it
- Zero running costs and virtually zero maintenance — no motor, no battery, no charging infrastructure. The broom is driven by a gear-and-belt system as the operator pushes forward. Nothing to plug in, nothing to break down.
- At 20 kg with two side brooms covering a 920 mm path, the SW250 clears car parks, playgrounds, and paths up to six times faster than a manual broom — ideal for collecting leaves, litter, and light debris outside schools, care homes, and public buildings where visitor perception matters.
- A 38-litre hopper with hold-open lid doubles as a waste receptacle — sweep the area, empty a rubbish bin into it, and tip the lot in one visit to the skip. Less walking, more productive rounds.
- Silent operation and zero emissions. With no engine or battery, the SW250 runs during the day without disturbing anyone, and stores anywhere — even upright against a wall when space is at a premium.
