I am glad I came across this video. I actually just doing lawn mowing services and it has been helpful. I get a call just about everday. I’m am thinking of doing this full time on the weekends. I have a a full time during the week for benefits, this would be to start my own business and have extra cash to have. Also I’m doing this for my son Liam, who will be on this earth in 3 months. I’ve never felt a love like this before. 😊
Congratulations brother on the new family member and starting your own business. EXCITING STUFF!!
Congrats, Joel. I want to start with lawn mowing to help my family out and pay for school. Any advice?
Congrats man! As a fellow Joel with a lawn care business and my first son on the way…. Cheers to us!💪🏼
@@CrazyCritterz congrats on the son on the way!!
Congrats on the kiddo bro
I like this guy, "Just do it." So true. It's about getting started and going.
Thanks for the support brother!!
He spoke the truth, when he said those words. ❤
Im 17 and I am in the process of starting my own lawncare business through my neighborhood. I have never done something like this before so I will humble myself and keep watching your chanel so that I can learn more of what to do when it comes to lawn care/ proper lawn mowing techniques
You can do it!!
Good luck
I’m 18 and have been doing lawn maintenance with my dad on and off since I was 15, looking like I’m going to start my own business eventually after learning the ropes from a company first
Perfect mentality
@@curtyoung4401facts
I wish that I could find people to cut their lawn for just even half that. Where I live people won't pay no $65 when I tried 3 years ago half the people didn't even want me to do it for 20. So good luck and keep up the good work. And I'll keep watching. You guys do good work.😊
Thank for the support brother!!
I guess it depends on where you live. I'm in a small town in Indiana with a 6600 sq ft lot and I was lucky enough to find a guy who mows it for 30.00. I only have him mow, no edging or weeding because I like doing that myself.
@@ilvcountry That's awesome! Thank you for sharing.
@@ilvcountryI'm also in Indiana and in our neighborhood, people pay around $60 for a half acre sized property.
Dude saaame. Here in Houston and people don’t wanna pay more than $30. But barbers can charge $50 because inflation 🤷🏻♂️
This is what I’m talking about … we have people like you making 600 dollars a day mowing…MOWING ! Yet again we see people jobless because they are lazy… keep up the good work bro!
Thanks for your support brother!!
In my area south Florida I charge $50 up to 8,000 square feet measuring total property. not just turf. I mow with a 36 Toro proline walk behind with a sulky solo.
As a fellow vet, super proud of your hard work brother. I'm talking to my 16 yr old to help him learn this as a hustle. I'm half tempted to do it myself honestly. 1 day a week to bring in some extra cash flow. But for a 16 year old he could really make some good money doing this. His only issue he has is his social skills he is very recluse.
Thank you for your service! Thats amazing that your 16 year old is interested in getting into lawn care. It will teach him a lot of great lessons in life.
Recluses are great salespeople. Eye contact and speak up that'll do it.
Also as a fellow Vet, thank you BOTH for your services and keep up the great work brother! I enjoy the content and I am also a solo owner operator in the Lawn Care game in my local area in the FL panhandle region. Been at it two seasons now pt and going ft Spring 2024
@@Esquivelheadwhy do you say recluses are great salespeople
@@andrewmacfarlane4899 I just think labelling people isn't really the way to go. Anyone can do sells if someone can teach them. I knock doors with my sons to mow and they drop their jaws that I can get work, but putting someone down when all they need to do is learn a little skill isn't the coolest.
Thank you! My son is eager to start a lawn care business and this helped a lot, I’m convinced to do this with him!!😊
Awesome! Glad the video helped!
Did you ever get started?
Im a very young man looking to start a official lawn care business with a couple friends who are just as dedicated as me and this video has been very helpful in the category of pricing and efficiency. Also you are greatly appreciated for your time in the service and I wish nothing but greatness and success upon you.
Go for it!! Thank you for your support!
I'm so thankful I came across your video, I've had some experience doing lawn care at home and for my grandparents, aunt, I've been thinking of starting a side hustle with lawn care but I wasn't really sure on how to do so, but seeing this video really help me.
Thank you
You got this!!
Loved the video! I have a quick question: why do you use a 21" mower instead of a 30" one that would still fit inside of the truck bed?
Thanks for the support! All of our mowing customers have pretty small yards. Also the 30 inch mowers aren't as durable as the 21 inch mowers. Honestly we can mow roughly the same amount of time as if we had a 30 inch mower on our size lots.
The truck setup is genius
Thank you!
I've been in the lawn business for thirty-six years never got rich just old and nothing but lots of aches and pains .It has been very hard to keep going with the rising costs of gas and insurance I'm ready to call it quits and start my own homestead and grow my own food and butcher my own animals wish I would have quit years ago!
May I ask how you ran your business?
Seems like you were a bad businessman
I have a small homestead. It only seems all nice lol. You got to love it
Better luck next time😂
Sound like sour
Average, middle class subdivisions here in the St. Louis Mo. suburbs are between $30-$40 to cut, trim and blow. If you tell ANY of them it's going to be $67 ... they'll slam the door in your face.
Thanks for your input! We are grateful to be in a phenomenal market down here.
Wow, I'm up here in Northern jersey. I charge 65 a cut. I have several homes at that price and they are smaller yards. Guess location really is a factor.
No one cutting lawns for 30-40.
@one901 facts.
I live in Arkansas and 60 is the minimum I’ll show up to cut for
This is THE VIDEO I always needed. I've been planing to start up a mowing business for last 4 months now. Im 19 y.o and in 2 months I will move to anorher country for education. I was wondering how could I start this business and I wasn't really sure what to do. I can't believe I found a youtube channel that accurate to my dreams.
Glad I could help!
It's sad that you make more mowing in a day than I make mowing in 2 weeks at a university in Texas because we get "insurance" it's ridiculous how little they pay us.
You should mow some lawns on the side.
@@TheWillKelly I don't make enough to buy the equipment with the cost of living and other stuff going on in my life sadly. I want to get into truck driving any way as a means to make good money
@@evildrporkchop4628if you live in a house and take care of your own yard most you should have most everything already needed to get started a push mower a trimmer and a rake and push broom and a truck or SUV or even a small car would work I had to bore my Gpas push mower when I first moved into a house with a yard and I got that in the back on a 2005 Toyota Corolla
I appreciate you making this. Starting my 4th Business with this and I actually want to be out there cutting. I did it 5 years straight growing up for my dads company and today is the day I start my own
You got this!!!
OK, so we know it's impossible to service 150, let alone 300 customers solo. Also, at $80/hour using a 22 inch pusher, someone is getting screwed, and obviously its not you. I really think it's unfair to new people thinking of getting into the mowing business to offer unreal expectations of the money that can make.
You are ripping up turf with that edger @Will Kelly leaving patches on the lawn!
bro driving around beverly hills saying "this is where we started with nothing"
You’re right! I need to be more appreciative!
Exactly 😅
Older retired guy looking for a new venture. Thinking of starting a lawn care business. You are inspiring, thanks alot!
I'm glad to hear the content is inspiring, thanks for sharing!!
this is a lot of manual labor , are you sure you can handle it
Yea I wanna get into this , grass will always grow .
Alot of competition
@@kennethrobinson1672 undercut your competitors price or do a better job or both, always a solution - you could offer a free mow if they sign up for a regular mow. There's so many unique marketing strategies, simply handing out fliers stating you're a professional and the most affordable around will get you a lot of interest.
I am also a fellow vet. I am currently a special education teacher and I mow my elderly neighbor's lawn every week. She pay me $40. I am thinking about starting my own lawn care business on the side and on the weekends. Its a little intimidating thinking about everything that needs to be setup before you pull that cord, but this kind of content helps a lot! Thank you.
Glad it is helpful brother!!
Did you commit to it bro?
Damn. That first lawn in my area would be probably around $30-35.
It’s definitely a great Job/Side Hustle. The hard part is the competition, so many people are doing lawn care these days
Consistency is key!
Be consistent. The volume of people doing it can drive price down but make sure you have a base or you basically be cutting for free
Rhett
Thank you my friend i have a Mobile Car Detailing business and you just inspired me to start my loan mower business thanks 🙏
That is awesome!
OMG! People actually pay $67 for front and back mowing? $47 for back only?! What state are you in, because down here in TX....youre seeing residential lawn care for like $25-$35 if your yard is average. Mind you though, we do have an influx of illegal aliens who compete and keep these market prices so low.
We’re in Texas lol
@@TheWillKelly sheeeeeeesh!
Really enjoy the video. One thing that may be worth mentioning is Sales = more money, efficiency = profit margin
You make a solid point!! Thanks for sharing and your support!
Get a stand on riding mower and you'll make $120+ an hour. Push mowing with a little 21" is so inefficient.
It is inefficient however our lawns are so small.
@@TheWillKelly Yeah your lawns are on the smaller side but time is money man. You're limiting yourself too much by using the wrong tool. I recommend a Wright Standard Intensity 36", I have one and fly through my postage stamp lawns. It's basically a stand on push mower. Or if money is tight, get a 30" Exmark and keep pushing. But long term that's not sustainable physically or economically. 80$ a man power hour is chump change in 2024.
I’m in DFW and been in landscaping business since 2014. There are so many areas and new houses being built. So there is definitely competition but enough for anyone who works hard to eat. I charge basically square footage not hr. Most of these yards take around 30-40 mins front and back if your athletic and high quality equipment. You charge weekly or bi weekly. Most small or medium yards he just done are around 40-50$. I charge straight up now taxes or anything. I haven’t worked for anyone since I started my landscaping company when I was 23. Turning 33 this Nov and if you live in DFW it’s been 🥵 af the last month. But we outside getting 💰 ✂️ 🌱
Up them prices up, same work load, more money…55 -70
I see you tryna eat.....but this how you FEAST!!!!
Get in a neighborhood with sprinkler systems.
Get Name/number on truck.
Bro Drop prices a lil, go ahead and spoilem for a season to build your name/brand.
Give a price they can't refuse.
Get tight on route density 🗝️
Invest in a stander to increase productivity 💎 Slide n glide to the 💰. After neighborhood on 🔐
Slightly raise your prices back up.
Proven recipe.
@@coolwhip4165 fasho definitely with sprinkler system because it’s been hot af and dry af 💯
When you say you make that much in a day, are your customers paying you each visit? Or are you being paid monthly but that’s what each cut comes out to? Sorry if I missed that in the video. Great work!
As always Will, love your work!!! Thank you will for everything! So you would recommend the Toro Commercial mower, not a residential mower correct? I am about to get one. How much would I be looking at? Also, how do I calculate the pricing for each yard. Still a little off on this metrix. Also the first cut of the year or of a new customer of a overgrown yard? Thank you as always Will. Chad - Red Rock Lawn Care
Hey brother, because I know your situation more than most I would not recommend a commercial push mower at this time for you. I don't think for the price of $2k it is worth it for you right now. I would wait until you are running that thing 5 days a week 7 hours a day until you get a commercial mower. If you need a new mower, I think upgrading to a nice top of the line residential mower for $700 - $800 is the move for you. You will spend about a third less than you would on a commercial and allow you to keep more profits in your pocket to help you grow. I am planning on putting together a pricing sheet for anyone wanting it based off a 21 inch mower and small residential yards. We've had 4 years of mowing hundreds of lawns to come up with the blueprint for it. This can help get you accurate pricing for how much you want to make on your lawns.
@@TheWillKelly Hey Brother, thank you so much for the speedy response and the great feedback, as always. I will do the top in residential mower. Honda or Toro, just curious? Yes, I am interested in the pricing sheet for sure! Yeah, like I mentioned to you in our Zoom call, I love your business model and it is the one I want to pursue no doubt! I truly believe it would be the best business model in the DFW area as well! Thanks Will, Talk soon!
@@redrocklawncare Either one is a good mower. You won't go wrong with either.
@@TheWillKelly Very cool. Look, let me know about the pricing sheet, when you can. I am very intereted. Also what software do you use to get your square footage, in Aubrey, Mckinney, Frisco. I hope all is well. I just researched and found out that there are over 5k houses in like a mile radius is Frisco lol and they are very well off residents, not any scrubs lol. Damn that is unbelievable. You were not kidding when you said that there was money in the industry everywhere in the dfw area. Wow!! I can't to get out there! Talk soon. Chad
@@redrocklawncare Nice!! I'll look into getting the pricing sheet setup in the next few weeks. I basically have to build another website which I am okay with doing, it will just take some time. I can also do a video on mapping out a property as well to show you guys our process.
I call Bullshit, I'm 58 and been mowing since I was 10. live in Nashville area and it has become very difficult to find paying customers even with the huge population explosion in last 3 years and yes I'm advertising every way I can think of
I can show you the dispatch board and the numbers, it's true.
Yes full of it.
I’m in Florida and I’m making $500-$600 a day too. You have to price properties with some self respect, not these $20 a yard guys.
Was planning to start my own lawn mower business.. thanks for the great knowledge.. from Fiji.
Glad this was helpful my friend!!
Where are you finding suckers to pay you $80 per man hour.....where im at people dont even want to pay $25/hr, and they are all multiple acre lots.
Maybe try focusing on bringing more value to them.
@@TheWillKelly I appreciate your effort...but value is perceived. I do 10 times the job you did in this video, there isn't more value to be added without spending more time, which they don't want to pay for. You just have wealthy clientele that is too lazy or unable to do their own yardwork. Good for you. I'm maintaining garden beds, pruning trees, fighting back cane grass, fertilizing orchards, on top of the mowing, weedwhacking, and hedge trimming.
That's why I'm doing less and less of it. I'm grateful for all I've learned, and it's been nice helping people out and giving back to the land, but this isn't sustainable.
@@farfromirrational948dude I thought I was going good for myself, but I get payed $20/hr for exactly what you said. I’m the everything guy when it comes to the land. Even maintain his garden.
80$/ hr would actually solve most of my problems right now, but sounds so unrealistic. This guy has money to spend too.
My man! Thanks so much for sharing Your knowledge, as well as all the great information . I’m in the initial phase of starting my Home Services Business, and I gained a lot from Your video. It will prove to be time well spent. Im totally changing careers and plan on building something great. I’m getting my machinery tomorrow and can’t wait to get started. Those lawns aren’t going to cut themselves 😂 also Thanks for Your Service!
Thanks for your support brother!!
Oof, your prices are high for how small those yards are. You're lucky your customers are willing to pay so much.
we live in a GREAT market
dang bro, that's a nice truck bed ramp. My truck isn't even close to being that lowered and it's all stock.
Thank you!
Why are you charging sales tax for cutting grass. You can legally not add sales tax to just labor for cutting grass trimming bushes etc. All that would be owed is federal Tax. Unless you are selling goods.
If you make more than 6K per year on the state of Texas you are required to charge sales tax. Are you in TX?
no sir mississippi @@TheWillKelly
yeah you may want to check with your state laws. Each state may be different.@@viperrt10able
How tf did you charge that first yard 67$? Their yard didn't even need to be cut. Lmao
We charge $80 per man hour and all our customers are weekly during the Summer.
Do you mean $80 per charge
9:52
"oh-ficially 😭
Can you make a video on how how to get a consistent schedule for yards through out the week?
bluds overcharging, im cutting much larger lawns with edging/weed trimmings included for 20-30 which take at least 50 minutes
Sounds like you need to raise your prices!😅
Here’s my useless stupid comment about my specific geographical region. It’s time to complain about charging some money too! Get me your manager! Get me Yelp! Aaggggghhhhh!
they charge anywhere from $70-$150 in Mobile, Alabama…they mist have a yard cutting PHD!!!
Cant believe your client pay 80$/h and their land looks like its been beat up. Bunch of bumps, yellow grass and so on.
These were some of our brand new customers so it takes some time to get the lawns corrected.
Nobody would pay that where I live in Texas.
@@RicardoHernandez-zr1pw we are grateful to be able to charge these prices.
@@RicardoHernandez-zr1pw I used to say the same thing about where I live. Turns out I was just wrong.
@@justingarret4776 I paid $40 but max $50. I just do it myself now.
All my customers white they pay black people don't wanna pay especially if you have skills i anit cutting nothing for 35 to 50 100 and more
why would I waste money on four years of college to be a healthcare worker and deal with idiots rather than mowing lawns and making way more money? Don’t go to school for a profession, just cut lawns and be high all day!!!
Young Jeffrey Davis Daniel Jackson Kimberly
Martinez Ruth Rodriguez Nancy Young Edward
at least apply some sort of water application fertilizer like SUNDAY
How do you afford healthcare?
If you don't have healthcare through a company I recommend going through the state for an affordable cost.
Rodriguez Jessica Taylor Brenda Jackson Jennifer
dog........ you made 152 dollars wtf are you smoking?
dude thanks for the advice but you cut absolutely nothing in the lawns man😂
These are weekly cuts
Yes all well and good if your fortunate enough to work in these wealthy suburbs. Your clients are not pensioners or battlers, you are also very possibly living in these high end areas. Try earn easy money in working class areas. I know this because i have been a lawn mowing contractor for 10 years. My experience and speed is beyond many. Just my 10 cents worth.
There definitely are different markets and we are fortunate to work in one of the best cities. Thanks for your input!
I'm in Arizona and there's no such thing as $60 an hour lol
What is the normal hourly rate there?
@@TheWillKelly tbh not sure. But it can cost between 400-1000 just for back and front yards. Negotiating the price too. Lol... I'm starting a lawncare business soon.
@@Bot123abc Sounds like you're in a great market!
I pay $37 to lawn mowing. And 3 people need to work for 10 mins. Thats about $70 per hour per person. And you make $600, that gonna be 9 hours per day. I live in the 2nd most expensive area across US. And just noticed you use push mower. You really work hard!!!
And I have 6000 sqf lawn. So for a 8000 sqf lawn, my current company will charge $40~$45.
Nice! Thanks for sharing.
Im at about 550 for lawm cutting. I dont use trailers i just lift my mower. Just have the one day so far a week but starting to fill up another day and have other 3 for big jobs
Nice!!
$80/hr seems like you're cutting yourself short. Other trades charge minimum $100/hr and don't have to chase down 10+ properties a day. Good completion times on the properties.
Good point, thanks for your input!
Your definitly working 12 hour days with that push mower. Dont be afraid to invest.
The lawns are pretty small we would be doing more turning than mowing
Awesome bro
Thanks brother!!
I would like to have a mowing business with Cal Songer. It will be called Jacob Dover and Cal Songer mowing business.
Nice!! You can do it!!
If I’m considered leaving my company landscaping job and making my own business, what would a comfortable number of clients be to quit my job and run it full time. Side note, I do not have a truck. I have an SUV so I’ll be starting out with putting a push mower, blower and weed liner in my trunk with the seats down. Again, what’s a safe number to run that type of business full time comfortably
There’s a lot of variables that play into this but ultimately you would need to make enough to replace your income. You have to be careful though because you also have expenses now. So you actually need to make double if not triple what you currently make now each week to sustain that take home pay.
Hey, I noticed that you mulch the grass and don't bag it. Is that because they are regular customers? What do you do if you get customers with long grass, do you charge more to bag it and remove the clippings?
We double mow it and charge an overgrown fee
Lewis Joseph Thomas Gary Taylor Brian
I would pay 50 to 60 dollars for a good pricing matrix.
Good to know, thank you for this feedback!
Hey,,,Good Morning Bro
Bro yall need stop befor you have evebrody doing this. We are going be work less out here.
Man
Keep these videos from TH-cam
Haha I’m grateful it’s inspiring to many!
$47, $67, why don't you just simplify and price per property not man hour? seems like the home owner may get annoyed with the odd sum payments and it would simplify it for both parties.
We sell labor so it must be based on time
very inspiring
Thank you!
I'd pay 25-35, if it was scalable and had add on services rates
Thanks for the recommendation!
I’ll give it to you though you’re making more in a day than I do on most days and I have over $35,000 worth of equipment and it’s just me but I keep it 100% honest I make about 3 to 600 a day 400 averageI make around 5000 a month sometimes seven
Thank you for sharing!
Would you consider adding other services (liming, pest/weed control, etc) to expand your business?
Yes absolutely! However I would look at what your goals are and what you want to accomplish before giving a hard answer to that question.
My Lawn Service the key factor as I found with my Lawn Service is attitude if you’re a nice person and you let them know that you are and you’re willing to work with him they will even pay more money to keep you. I have gotten so many tips good tips from being on time, listening to the customer and taking the time to go talk to them I’ve had so many customers that I’ve gone because of other companies have ran through there and didn’t take time to say good morning or anything and just be nice to the customer and make them feel important. I’ve gotten so many jobs from other companies that, they just didn’t talk to the people. I know you have to make money and I know time is money but invest the time into talking to your customers will meet the attitude makes a heck of a difference. I hope this helps somebody just really be nice and feel like you care for the people that you’re working for good luck.
This is awesome advice! Thank you for sharing!
Cutting grass that looks freshly cut. Blowing off patios to keep it dust free. Are those clients daily clients? No way it’s weekly or bu-weekly
Haha this made me laugh, yes they are weekly clients
Yes I would be willing to pay for a price sheet. Please let me know how i can go about getting one! thanks !!
I made it free. It’s in the description of the video below.
I have a question. I recently registered my company here in Quebec, Canada. How do you come up with the price?
I recommend calling 3 local competitors to price check and start from there.
I’m thinking about starting my own llc doing this with me and my cousin we’re great workers could we do this and our main job ?
Absolutely! You could do it on the side during weekends.
I wouldn't pay 1 dollar on pricing matrix because that is something that can be done with a little bit of research if i dont know personally....but there is a abundance of knowledge on the internet and i could resource by asking friends or strangers if needed....my point is did you pay for a pricing spread sheet when you first started off? And the answer is no so why would u ask for someone to pay for something that you didnt pay your self? Just saying if someone is learning or trying yo pickup the landscaping trade then they are most likely on a budget and without doubt they dont have extra money to waste on pricing quotes that are not even smart to use because every property is unique and no two properties are the same nor are landscapers so what you seem fit to charge one person based on what you think you bring to the table and your man hours a hour that u seem fit is definitely not the same as the next guy.....pricing with a beginner should be done with the idea of learn as you go and charge what you think you can do and how much you want to charge.... beginners need to mess up to learn how to fine tune their prices maybe one job they charged too little and after quickly learned that they under priced....you only learn that way not from some strangers pricing..... sorry the more i think of it the more it screams learn on your own.....just dont try to recommend something that you didn't do your self on your learning curve.....beyond that thqnk you for your videos people can learn alot from what your putting out there ....most of it hehe
Thanks for your input brother! Good news!! I made the pricing matrix free so you can get it for no money at all. The link is in the description of this video.
Wait so you dont have to bag your trimmings? My sister has lawn mower with bag on it and when it fills up i have fill the trash can with the trimmings...do your customers ever complain about not bagging the trims?
No we do not bag our mower clippings.
No offense buddy but most people are coming here to look for advice, and we use commercial zero turn Scaggs some use marks, but is there anyway I can be of assistance and guiding you to get a commercial mower you would get a lot more done you could’ve done that in eight minutes
A lot of our lawns are between 2000 and 3000 sqft. We would be doing more turning than actually mowing.
This new Battery thing they passed in calif is going to wipe out a lot of us, battery units are a lot of $$$$$$$$$$$$ and battery run down very fast. good luck on that one...
Electric is definitely interesting!
what ever you wanna make that's what you charge, no spreadsheet needed. know your own worth and charge accordingly
I like it!
Why do you push mow? Why not get a commercial grade mower and mow daylight till dawn without the fatigue and make even more money!
Our lawns are pretty small. We’d be doing more turning than mowing.

@@TheWillKelly No problem. I am interested in lawn care. But I just got to thinking it's going to be fall soon. But what about fall and winter? How does your lawn care business make money during those seasons?
Noticed the texas tags, how do you compete with Hispanics who are charging $30-40 per cut?
1. Our trucks are logo'd
2. we have office staff to answer the phone
3. We bill using credit cards
4. all our staff speaks fluent English
5. we do background and drug testing for our employees.
We separate ourselves from the chuck in a truck people that mow lawns cheaply.
Ain’t knocking nobody’s hustle, but respect the hustle where there’s hard working Men out here working for there family’s living pay to check to pay check if that. We all breathe the same air and we all bleed the same.
I'm going to be honest with you. That first pawn didn't look like it needed to be cut.
It did need some fertilizer!
Tho I’m only 11 years old when I’m like 13 I’m going to start one to make some money to save and for a academy I want to go to
Nice!! You got this!!
@@TheWillKelly thanks also what would you recommend as I will be starting with smaller properties
@@Aviator381 What is your question?
@@TheWillKelly what mowers and things like that I’m thinking of John Deere and ego
@@Aviator381 I'd recommend a 21 inch if they are small lawns like 5k turf and below. Also I recommend whatever your closest dealer has in stock.

Thats a pretty good price if you only mulch. My truck is full of grass end of day

Do you ask the owner for permission or do you put a note on the door saying what you did and how much they pay for that job?
Price is agreed upon ahead of time when they initially contact us for service.
Hungry this guy is makes me laugh how does this guy come up these prices ????
$80 per man hour is what we charge per employee
But you guys never pick up the cut grass 😂 that's just straight lazy. $
May be for your area but its not common here in north Texas to bag the clippings.
do u need big truck bed space in the back?
Do I need it or is it needed in general?
bro good stuff keep up the work, only just started lawn mowing over the last month. this really gave me some clarity on how much to charge, Honestly like no excuses for giving out flyers even if there just from your printer, hustle!!
Glad I could help!!!
How much did u end up charging bro I’m starting business soon
originally i started of with $50 but pushing for $60 and probably more in the future but going forward 60-70 is probably enough to hire someone@@soulja617
Who tf is paying $67 to have their grass cut???
Lots of our clients.
Why is there a job taking you 50 minutes?
Thats how long it takes to mow, weed eat, edge and blow that property.
I thought about doing that here in Dallas TX, but people want front and back for $30... Are you F kidding me, and you have to work at a nice 112° weather plus humidity, no thanks 🤮💩🤮💩
We are near Dallas Tx
Tell them it's no longer 1982
