Frequently asked questions

How much should I charge to mow or treat a lawn?

Start with a minimum stop charge that covers drive time and setup (commonly $40–$50), then add a per-1,000-sq-ft rate that hits your target hourly revenue. This calculator combines both so the price never drops below your floor on small lawns.

What is a minimum stop charge?

It's the smallest amount you'll accept for any single visit, regardless of lawn size. It covers the fixed costs of showing up — drive time, unloading, and setup — that you pay whether the lawn is 2,000 or 20,000 square feet.

Should I price by square footage or by the hour?

Quote by square footage so the customer gets a clear number, but build that rate from your target hourly revenue plus drive time. Pricing purely by the hour is hard to quote and pricing purely by size ignores how long the work actually takes.
