Our Tow and Collect machines are easy to tow, using a standard ball and hitch coupling system that is compatible with ATVs, 4 wheelers, and most other trucks and stable vehicles. Simply attach it to your tow bar and you’re ready to collect. The Tow and Collect will also remove thatch to improve the quality of your grass.
The Tow and Collect 1500 Pro is the only machine in the range that requires a motor. This is due to the weight of the machine meaning that the increased weight does not allow the brushes to self-drive. The motor drives the brushes that scoop up the manure into the black bucket at the back.
View our smaller Mini 700 or 1220 ground-driven Tow and Collects. These two machines brushes are self-propelled from the motion of the wheels and moving the machine forward with the ATV.

Bought my 1500 pro last year, I wanted to wait to review until i had a significant amount of time using it. After a small learning curve, I cant say enough good things about it. easy to operate, picks up all the horse manure in one pass. easy to adjust and dump... A++++++
We have had our Tow and Collect for numerous years. It's purpose on our farm is to do the spring clean up after winter. We cover 30 acres with 20 horses and get the manure situation under control in a matter of days. It is an essential tool for spring cleaning. We have replaced brushes on it and the motor over the years. Discovered that using Rec fuel gives it better engine life, though.
I have had my Tow & Collect for over 10 years. It does a great job on the two smaller pastures that are intensively grazed by horses. The brushes break up the manure so that it composts more easily as well. I highly recommend the 1500 Pro machine.
It is a great machine and saves hours of time cleaning the pasture. Just be careful in muddy ground conditions that it does not get over loaded.
It has really saved us a lot of time keeping the horse pasture clean. Be cautious if you want to use it when it is wet outside. Dump it often so that you don’t overload it.
From the USA to the UK, Ireland to Canada, Australia and New Zealand, Tow and Collect users enjoy the benefits and efficiencies of their Tow and Collect.
Laina was manually mucking in the two main paddocks using a shovel and wheelbarrow. This was time-consuming taking up to an hour per paddock. Even then she would only collect the manure from close to the barn rather than head all the way out to the back of the paddock.
Melissa Newsome was given her Tow and Collect as a Christmas present by her husband and she loves it.
“Before the Tow and Collect we had to take muck buckets, rakes and spades and just manually muck it up. It took days. It would take three people four days to do five fields. It now takes six hours.”
Rachel was looking for an easier, less labour intensive alternative to mucking out fields, she came across the Tow and Collect and can now spend more time with her animals and less time cleaning fields!
“It’s been a GAME CHANGER for me”
Paul Elliot takes great pride in keeping his park clean and clear of Goose poop. The Tow and Collect Mini 700 is the perfect machine for cleaning the grounds, something that visitors frequently comment on.
“The Tow and Collect is the fastest and easiest way to clean up the parks for our visitors to enjoy.”
