I don’t do year long quotes, mine are always by the month and they pay on the 1st…if I do a good job and help them with extra tasks then I keep them, simple as that…
Hey Man you do what is right for your business. I have a couple properties right at 70.00 at 1/4. 15-20 min trimming but when I get on the mower its over bro. I charge acres right at 120.00 that is with very little trimming or non at all. It is all how you base your business. Stay cool bro 😎💯
Hey Buster! I price my jobs based on time. It's a little different because I have two men, two mowers, two trimmers etc so, although I can get a job done faster, I have two men. I generally charge $65-$75 up to an acre and anything up to three acres, 1 go to $100-$125.00 per service. To cut to the chase, I won't lower the gate on my trailer for less than $65.00, even if I'm only cutting 1/4 acre.
Understood.. that' my rate whether I have my helper with me or not. I know how long it will take to get this one and it be right and easy for me going forward. I look at every lot like it's only me cutting it so the money has to matter.
Personally, I don't go off of the size of the lot. I base everything on time. I quote everything at $70.00/man hour with a $60.00 minimum except for tree work and weed pulling. No matter how you quote it, if I am charging less than $135.00/month in a contract, it would mess me up psychologically. I just can't see myself invoicing someone $25.00/month. I don't care if it's only 4 months of work or not. If it were only 4 months of work, I'd just tell her she has to pay per service or find another landscaper. Also, yes, $75.00 is ridiculously low for 1 1/4 acre.

The heat is definitely drying out the grass cutting season so it will not you make a lot of money 😢😮
No it’s too low, she will learn and call you because her” lawn guy shows up whenever”. We’ve all heard this before.
I feel the same but the price maybe different
Stand firm on your price. $125 sounds good for bi-weekly depending on how much trimming is needed.
They might be getting started and looking for a way to corner a neighborhood.
maybe

I agree but that's my baseline for this size of property with all I do and it' a step up from the basic get off the truck and cut chuck lol
Heard that
