Lawn Care Business Estimating: How To Price Mowing a Lawn

http://www.LawnCare-Business.com
How to price lawn for your lawn care business. This video will show you about how to go about pricing a lawn for your lawn care business. I think you should charge by the minute in almost all cases. For instance, if it takes you 45 minutes to mow a lawn, then I would be charging 45-60 for this cutting.

do you pay employees per hour or per lawn?

[patrickcash6]

@missfrankyou Per hour.

whats a more productive method, 5 clients that will pay a dollar per min. or 15 that would pay half that?

[patrickcash6]

5 that would pay the $1 a minute. No question.

@jevans9442 four people for lawn care is over kill! no max than 3 people.

[hicktownpa1233]

well the way he explains it its 45 mins to do the whole lawn done weedwacking trimming and cleanup me i charge by acre usually since i have some big lawns i cut

[jevans9442]

So you say to charge $1 per minute even if you have a crew with four people working or are you saying to charge $1 per min per person working? ex; it takes 4 people 30 min to do one lawn that should be $120 right? If you charged $30 for a lawn that took 4 people to mow in 30 minutes you would be broke and out of business.
