The Clean Green Yard Machines Commercial Voucher Program (Commercial CGYM) provides incentives for the replacement of landscape maintenance equipment to lawn care providers, such as public agencies and private entities in the San Joaquin Valley.
Please review the program guidelines for complete information about requirements and eligibility.
Support Materials
The District has partnered with several dismantlers located throughout the San Joaquin Valley to fully implement the program in your area. Please view the following list of dismantlers to locate a dismantler near you.
You must first be approved and receive your voucher before destroying your equipment and/or purchasing your new equipment.
