      That's why I put a big block Briggs 37 hp on my customer mower he does over grown one cut and makes good money. You would be shock at his pictures of these yards. Just makes no sense to me why they only cut one time a month.

      A good rule-of thumb; whomever is on the mower needs to walk the property with a Trash Bag, pick up all trash, and remove all loose obstacles --- it's not the guy using the Trimmers responsibility. A good Crew-Leader, on the mower, should be trained accordingly...

      The point is don’t always jump to being judgemental and negative especially not knowing a person’s situation of why things are the way they are. It’s as if people enjoy just being judgmental and negative about things that they have no idea.

    Your comment about charging for cleanup then weekly being separate is totally correct. We get hit with what we call "one time wonders" all the time. And always at the start of the season when grass is full of leaves and damp with objects hidden inside for that added engine stalling surprise.

    Hi there, lawny/gardener from Adelaide, Australia. Gotta love people that don't even try cleaning up their yard before you come over. I've gotten busy enough recently that I avoid these jobs if possible. Also I used to them cheap but people just take advantage of your generosity so now the longer the grass the more I charge regardless of how long it takes....

    We see lawns like that and majority of the time we tell them we can't do it. Its hard on the engine first of all and secondly a lot of folks don't want to pay the price to get it back down. They see big mowers and figure that you can just run over it once and be done which is surely not the case. I commend you guys cause got out and tackled it and it looks 100 times better. Keep up the good work!👍👍

    Yikes! What a nightmare. My husband used to let our lawn go like this because it was a large yard with annoying slope. I tried it but couldn't man handle the crappy mower over the uneven sloped terrain. I finally convinced him to let a lawn service do it. We got some landscaping done, evened out the craters.Regular service. It was so nice. Now we are in a place with the flat yard front and back and I love doing the work myself. Great video!

    I think a scythe is more appropriate sometimes. You're covering 48 inches or more in a swath - way more than 18 inches on your 36" zero, and you can work closer, slower and safer to see cinderblock, cans and jugs that may be hidden in the tall grass while completing the job possibly faster. You would have been able to collect the cuttings, too. That healthy yard doesn't look like it needs more mulch.

    My father was an arborist and a landscaper, we had a landscaping company that I grew up in. My mom did the office stuff, ran the books/payroll and placed the client list and work for my dad for the week. We regularly, (in the Winter when my dad was "off") go to the Morton Arboretum here in Chicagoland to do research. He never stopped learning, and I went to work with him from when I was a small child. My job was flower planting, I'd plant edges of begonias, petunias, and the like. My mom taught me how to plant flower pots with good combinations of flowers; design and balance. At any rate, when I saw this, I was like OMG. There needs to be new turf setup. You can save this, but it's a lot of work, better to cut it down and take it out, put new turf down, or place several shrubs, and low ornamental trees. Put in raised beds for veggies/herbs. Maybe some fruit bushes along the fence, and a perennial garden on one or two sides. I'd cut down on the lawn area unless this is a fixer upper for young families that might want grass as a play area and have a swing set/sandbox setup for the children to play in.
    We lived near a big easement field near a railroad, so my dad always had my uncles and family friends out to play horseshoes. He also laid out another area for volleyball. Then, on our driveway, we had a shuffleboard he spray-painted on the cement. We also had a croquet set for another area in the backyard grass area. Downstairs had a ping pong table. If you could not find something fun to do at our house during a birthday party, etc. it was your own darn fault. But that is what having a good big backyard can do for you. Thanks for keeping it up!

    Not withstanding this first mow, and if you’ll be mowing it regularly, this is an easy account. Flat, no trees, no shrubs, etc. By the same token, the way it initially looked, I won’t put too much hope in that customer and charge on this initial job with “hope” out of the equation.
    Y’all did a great job, hope customer appreciates it.

    Good job, I used to have a lawn service and I agree. People will will try and deceive you into a lower rate by saying they'll use you from now on....only to go back to their normal crew who maybe charged what the job was worth (more then they wanted to pay) so they shopped around for a cheaper crew. Keep up the good work. Love seeing melanin people out here. Had to search a lot of videos to fine black men/women doing this type of work as youtube doesn't promote them and they never randomly come up in my recommendations.
