For nearly a century, homeowners have used Milorganite to deliver the nitrogen their lawns crave without the risk of burning their grass or creating patchy, streaky results. That’s because Milorganite releases nitrogen more slowly than many other fertilizers, keeping grass consistently nourished while it grows strong and resilient. Milorganite also contains iron, which helps grass develop deeper, richer shades of green. READ MORE

Stopped by the shop in search of a new snowblower to purchase. Was greeted immediately and received seemingly honest and knowledgable answers to all of my questions regardless of whether the questions involved a product sold at the shop or not. Truly took the time to listen and ask me clarifying question to tailor my experience to my specific needs and wants. Snowblower (Ariens Compact 24) was purchased and delivered on the same day before an impending snowstorm with removal of my old machine. Snowblower was fully registered for factory warranty and ready to use upon delivery. Stayed a few extra minutes after delivery to ensure I knew how to operate the snowblower. Great experience. Highly recommend. Would purchase from River East again.

Great service! Took the time to measure and find 2 bearings for a peco lawn vac that were obsolete on the parts list. They didn't take the easy way out which would have cost me several hundred instead of 40 bucks. Thanks again.

Really great service !!! Came in at substantially lower than estimate. Cleaned up and got good advise on maintenance and fuel . Will return for service and if I need products or equipment. (Be aware... the "bathroom" does not contain a bath... it is a toilet with a sink... not intended for baths...clean, but not technicallya "bath" room)

I did not buy from River East as we decided to keep our lawn service. I shopped around at about 6 places and Dan (owner) was by far the most helpful person. He actually cared! I had decided on what I wanted but in the end financially it did not make sense for me to leave my lawn service. If I do make the change and do it myself I would not hesitate at all to go back to Dan and buy from him. He takes the time to listen ! Thanks Dan
