Buyers Products UTVS16 150 lb UTV ATV Receiver Mount Broadcast Spreader

The Buyers Products UTVS16 broadcast spreader turns your utility vehicle into an efficient distribution system for groundskeeping, property maintenance, and farming tasks. It mounts directly onto equipment with a standard receiver, eliminating the effort of pushing manual spreaders across large fields or long driveways. Whether you are distributing grass seed in the spring, fertilizer in the summer, or salt during freezing winter weather, this unit handles multiple granular materials across all four seasons.

Capacity and build quality are central to this design. The hopper holds up to 15 gallons or 150 pounds of material, allowing for extended coverage between refills. Because it is molded from rust-proof poly, it resists corrosion from aggressive fertilizers and melting salts. A sealed 12-volt motor drives the broadcast mechanism, casting material out to a width of up to 30 feet to cover ground rapidly.

Managing application rates is straightforward thanks to the flow control system. An adjustable shut-off gate pairs with a manual control rod so you can dial in specific settings from fully open to fully closed. Installation is also user-friendly, as the mount attaches to standard 2-inch receiver hitches using common tools, and adjustable mounting holes help ensure a stable fit. An included 8-1/2-foot wiring harness with an integrated on/off switch provides power delivery directly from your vehicle battery.

Keep in mind that using this unit requires a vehicle equipped with a standard 2-inch hitch receiver and a 12-volt power connection. Because the flow rate is managed via a manual control rod, setting your gate position requires hands-on physical adjustment at the unit rather than electronic cab controls.

Verdict: The Buyers Products UTVS16 is an ideal choice for property owners and groundskeepers who want to spread seed, fertilizer, or salt quickly from their UTV, ATV, or tractor. It offers solid capacity, broad 30-foot coverage, and durable corrosion resistance for year-round utility.
