Broadcast spreaders distribute seed, fertilizer, etc. Types: handheld (crank), walk-behind wheeled (wheel-driven), tow-behind, and ride-on. Handheld/wheeled are typical for homeowners.
Hopper holds material. Handheld: crank spins disc. Wheeled: wheels turn disc. Fins on disc fling material outward.
Consider individual patch sizes, not just total area. One large new lawn? Rent a motorized spreader—cheaper than buying.
Hopper capacity rated in sq ft coverage. Match to your lawn size. Don't oversize—material degrades if stored long. Multiple patches? Sum them, but use common sense on cost.
If you have a ride-on mower, get a tow-behind spreader—multi-use, less storage, less maintenance. Motorized units have more parts to break.
Even distribution (especially wheeled/motorized). Easier than hand-throwing large areas. Less affected by walking speed variations.
