Dapper Supply DP-GS1112 Tow-Behind Compost Spreader – 36" Roller, Rust-Resistant Steel Frame

DP-GS1112 Tow-Behind Spreader for Multi-Acre Topdressing

The DP-GS1112 is a 36-inch tow-behind compost spreader on a rust-resistant heavy-duty steel frame. It hitches to most lawn tractors and ATVs, so a single operator can topdress large lawns and paddocks from a seat instead of pushing a hopper by hand. The 36-inch roller path covers roughly 50% more ground per pass than the 24-inch push model, which is where the labor savings show up on properties over one acre.

36-Inch Roller, Towable Frame, and Even Material Flow

• 36-inch tow-behind roller — covers about 50% more ground per pass than a 24-inch push spreader, cutting the number of passes needed on multi-acre turf
• Rust-resistant heavy-duty steel frame — holds up against repeated contact with wet compost, manure, and topsoil that corrodes coated-steel hoppers
• Tow-behind hitch — connects to standard lawn tractor and ATV hitch points without tools, so one person can cover large areas from the vehicle
• Mesh roller drum — meters compost, peat moss, and manure evenly across the full 36-inch path instead of dumping in rows
• Side latches — open for filling and rinsing without pulling the roller assembly apart
• Wide material range — handles compost, topsoil, peat moss, manure, mulch, and general topdressing without swapping parts

DP-GS1112 Applications and Environments

Hobby farms and rural estates use the DP-GS1112 for annual topdressing on 2 to 5 acre lawns where a push spreader would run into impractical labor hours. Landscaping companies run it for estate seeding prep, laying a compost amendment over prepared soil before overseeding in one tractor pass. Equestrian property managers spread manure compost across paddock restoration areas to rebuild worn turf. Golf course grounds crews use tow-behind spreaders for fairway topdressing programs that need coverage over tens of thousands of square feet per shift without hand labor. On these properties the 36-inch roller width is the deciding spec, since covering half again as much ground per pass over 2 to 5 acres is the difference between a one-afternoon job and a multi-day one. The rust-resistant steel frame matters here too, because paddock and fairway work means repeated contact with wet manure compost and topsoil that would corrode a coated hopper over a season. The spreader ships complete with the side-latch roller assembly and attachment hardware, and it connects to standard lawn tractor and ATV hitch points. Before ordering, confirm the hitch pin size and tongue weight against the tractor or ATV pulling it.
