yea that too! Only downfall is that you have to fill it up as many times as gorilla cart :lol:

Another thing...wet sand is a PAIN!

Rentals do exist but far too costly for a single residential lawn unless you have acres to do. I've thought about getting neighbors in on a big group rental. Buy top-dressing in (serious) bulk, rent a mounted top dresser like that one, and a small loader to fill the top dresser. Rent the gear for a week (which is usually the minimum) and we could probably top-dress the whole development!

My neighborhood gets a group price on aeration and compost top dressing every year. I think it was 60 for the aeration and like 80 bucks a year for compost. I didn't the aeration last year with no compost. Wish they would throw some sand in there.

Yeah, compost brings with it the risk of weeds, although some sand sources do as well. The top-dress mix that many courses use is usually sterilized, which of course adds cost.
