Lawncare question

your best bet is to call up your local landscapers, pretend you're considering hiring them, and ask them.  then do it for a little bit less.  thats what I used to do back when I did it

if it's just a garden then just do a set price.. if you did 10 bucks per hour then you'd be working your ass off for not a lot of money.. believe me, i do landscaping as my job and 90 minutes of straight weeding is fucking hell and you'd only make $15.. just agree on like $25 or something, i have no idea how big the garden is but im sure you can agree upon a price.

I think ill ask $30 and if they dont like it, they can suck it haha.

Its a dece sized area but idk, not too bad. Ill just agree on a price upfront

dece is the word of the year

I mow 15 lawns and people always ask me to weed their gardens as well but i never do it i cannot stand weeding and you will make alot more money alot faster by just mowing

Yea, i mow about 8 lawns and i absolutely hate weeding, but im done with school, the house is right next door, and theyre rich. i need some dough

It also depends on how big it is and how much time it will take. If you think it's around an hour, and its really hard, I would ask for around 25, around half an hour 15-20. It all depends.

Mowing lawns, I had lawns that took 5 minutes that paid $15, I had lawns that took 20 minutes for $20. I had one that took 45(that was my record), but more like an hour for $30, and the best being my generous neighbor across the street giving me $60 to do the lawn that took 30-45 minutes.

Prices really differ. Just tell them a price, maybe a little bit higher, and say youre really not sure how much to charge. If they take the higher price, that's good, if they dont look good about it, drop it $5 to the price you had before and be like, I'll be nice and drop the price for you, and they will like it and give you business later.

i pay myself one beer for mowing, one beer for edging, and one beer for fertilizing. 

i cant mow a lawn that takes me under an hour, not because im slow, there just huge

ive been doin lawncare in the summer for 4 years.  fuck weeding.  charge em for just spraying it.  we do right round double the mow rate when we spray
