Dickens Turf & Landscape Supply

Cultivating Excellence in Knoxville Since 1991

In East Tennessee, a perfectly manicured lawn is more than just curb appeal—it’s a passion. Since 1991, Dickens Turf & Landscape Supply has been the steady partner for Knoxville residents, ranging from backyard enthusiasts to the professionals maintaining high-stakes collegiate and professional sports fields. For over 35 years, our mission has remained consistent: providing environmentally friendly, affordable solutions that keep local landscapes weed-free, pest-free, and thriving.

Under the leadership of owner Brian Dixon, who traded the corporate world for the garden in 2001, we bring informed confidence to every interaction. We aren't just selling products; we use them ourselves. Our team is trained to provide technical advice that helps both the average homeowner and the sophisticated turf pro feel confident in their yard management.

Technical Mastery for Every Landscape

Whether you are managing a golf course or a quarter-acre backyard, your equipment is the engine of your success. Our on-site service technicians possess the deep mechanical expertise required to analyze and fix complex machinery, ensuring your tools are ready to work when you are. We prioritize long-term reliability over quick fixes, focusing on the specific health of your small engines.

Our Specialized Maintenance and Repair Services:

• Precision Fuel System Recovery: Specialized carburetor cleaning and fuel system service to combat ethanol issues.
• Engine Health Diagnostics: Advanced engine repair, spark plug replacement, and air filter maintenance.
• Professional Sharpening Services: High-accuracy blade sharpening for mowers and specialized chainsaw sharpening.
• Seasonal Preparation: Comprehensive winter storage prep to ensure your equipment survives the Tennessee off-season.
• Authorized Service for Premier Brands: Expert care for Walker Mowers, Wright, Ferris, Hustler, Stihl, Toro, and Echo.

The Dickens Advantage

What truly sets us apart is our scale paired with a neighborly touch. With ten convenient warehouse locations, we provide a massive inventory of parts and equipment—from RedMax and Shindaiwa to Husqvarna—that allows for a quicker turnaround than smaller independent shops. We are more than a repair center; we are a resource where on-site professionals advise you on everything from premium sod and mulch to the best Kawasaki or Kohler engine for your needs.

A Passion for the Garden

The vibe at Dickens is one of authentic craftsmanship. Brian Dixon’s personal love for nursing vegetables and watching spring turf rise alongside flowering shrubs is woven into the culture of our shop. We are a team of gardeners and turf professionals who believe in honest work and the beauty of a well-tended landscape.

When you visit our Knoxville location, you’re greeted by a staff that actually uses what they sell. We look forward to providing the expertise and professional-grade gear you need to bring your landscaping vision to life.
