A lot of people ask us, "Is training really required?".  In our opinion the answer is a resounding YES.  

You are fortunate in today's curb equipment market, that training is available.  A lot of the "old contractors" in this business had to learn the hard way, by TRIAL AND ERROR.  Well as we all know, that errors cost money and that is no way to start out a new business.

We at P.D.C.S. understand that! We offer comprehensive training in all aspects of this exciting business. Be assured that with over 2 decades of successful installation of custom landscape edging in all conceivable conditions that we can offer you "piece of mind" when it comes to learning this business.  We have one of the largest networks of installers utilizing our equipment from coast to coast, this experience is at your disposal.

Training for your future installation crew, by our every-day, working installation crew.

Here is what to expect when you arrive. Classes usually start between 7:30am-8:00am.  We like to start early in order to maximize the time spent with you while you are here.
