Whatcom County's Best Kept Secret for Homeowner Projects Hits the Road

BELLINGHAM, WA, March 10, 2013 (Press-News.org) When it comes to home improvement equipment and tools, Birch Equipment is one of Whatcom County's best kept secrets. Known for its variety of big construction equipment, most people don't know that Birch is the largest supplier with millions of dollars of home improvement equipment and tools for homeowners to rent or buy for their next project - a one stop shopping dream for the weekend warrior.

This weekend, Birch's knowledgeable staff will answer questions about spring lawn and garden prep and other fix-it projects and the right tools and equipment to get it all done as one of 200 vendors at the Whatcom County Home and Garden Show in Lynden. Featured items include exciting new products from Husqvarna like mowers and trimmers, chainsaws and blowers. Attendees will also find personal protective equipment specials, rental deals and of course, an extensive array of construction-themed toys. People looking for equipment to clean up after winter will learn about Birch's large inventory of multiple thatchers, weed eaters, rollers, compactors and pressure washers, ladders and scaffolding, paint sprayers, lawn vacuums, pruners, rakes and even some equipment for indoor clean up like carpet cleaners, sanders and wall paper steamers. Birch also carries safety supplies including gloves and eye and ear protection.

Birch Equipment is not only a vendor at the weekend-long event. The company has continued its strong support of local events by providing show promoters with forklifts and scissor lifts for event set-up.
