Our Story

From a backyard workshop to a mission of sustainability.

Where It All Began

I caught a bug from my grandfather.

For as long as I can remember, his garage has been filled with dozens of mowers, trimmers, leaf blowers, snow blowers, and anything else with a small engine. He couldn't stand seeing equipment thrown away or left out to decay, especially when the majority of them only needed simple fixes. Word spread, and stuff kept showing up. If you had anything with a small engine that you weren't using or you couldn't get to start, you took it to him.

My own story started in my barn, with a few broken lawnmowers and a determination not to let them end up in a landfill. After sourcing parts to repair them, I realized how many perfectly good parts were often being discarded. What began as a hobby of salvaging and cataloging parts from disabled equipment quickly grew into a passion for helping others repair their own machines. The more I learned about the potential impact, the more committed I became to creating a scalable and sustainable solution.

Reuseful Equipment continues to grow, but our mission remains the same: giving new life to quality parts while helping people maintain their equipment affordably.
