The mulch on this site is done, (thank God!) just in time before the 1-3" of snow moves in. It's freaking April 20th, I can't believe it's SNOWING lol.
I’m starting my lawn business this year. Just got the trailer yesterday ($2k 6x14 enclosed!! Needs tlc) moving down to Davison, getting the mower and all that. Wouldn’t have the confidence I have if it wasn’t for your podcast. Been binging and soaking up al the knowledge I can. Hopefully it takes off. It should, I’m following all the advice I’m hearing for you and your guests. Just wanted to say thanks! Oh and congratulations on the baby girl!
Great stuff Brian! Tell the Winter Soldier I said great work too! We're doing it all over here in FL. Mowing, Sod, Mulch and Rock installs! Weekly mowing starts next month! I'm dreading it but excited lol! It's a chill week this week in FL it's been raining a lot. No rain is projected for today but everything is still soaked.
Mowing when it isn't snowing in Denver, 4" last night... Should be out mowing Wednesday and Thursday, cleanup and 4.5 yard mulch install Friday. Maybe a few aerations/fertilizing on Saturday.
Great video Brian, we got all the spring stuff done, and we are out laying stripes and landscaping! We got lucky we dodged that snow storm, at least you can try out the blower on the toro multi-force and blade if you have it!
I’m in SE Wisconsin. Got caught in white out blizzard conditions 2.5 lawns in on Wednesday. Went from mowing green spring grass to snowblowing with the mower lol had to call it a day early. Then it was 60 and beautiful cutting weather Thursday. Gotta love the Midwest!
Just fished spring cleanups next 2 weeks will be irrigation repairs at 5 new commercial properties and we start our weekly mowings next next week! I'm in Sun Valley Idaho by the way .
Had a spring cleanup on the lake and what always get me is the pine needles so many homeowners on the lake leave the pine needles gather for years and i end up cleaning them up. I mulch them and vacuum them up. Seriously 6” or better of needles every time. Ended up being about 100 bushels after all done.
Did 10 yards last week at $110/yard. Took about a day. Weeding,light pruning and edging. Not a bad day! Low overhead too. Just handtools and wheelbarrow. Love mulching
Weather is same here, rain/snow all day til about 1-2pm so could really do anything and 4-8" for us tonight into Wednesday morning. I have 1 backhoe with a 10ft pusher available. Hopefully people get it and most contracts went to April 1st and 15th. The backhoe will move some snow but travel time would kill me so it is what it is.
The pitch forks are nice, especially for spreading around plants etc. I prefer to scoop it out of my truck or trailer with a big aluminum grain shovel. Site One sells the Razorback, which is a good one. You may want to check the weight on your mulch. The mulch I mostly use is 700 lbs per yard. With your dump insert, you could be over payload. Payload includes trailer tongue weight too.
Had to get it all done by Mon/Tue because that 3-6 inches of snow you're getting in Michigan, we're about to get here in Buffalo, NY lol. Couple more days though and we'll be back in the 60s. Damn great lakes region weather...
Hey Brian, love the videos man. Have a question for your I left the oil fill cap loose on my mower and realized after mowing about 1qt. Of oil spewed out over an entire lawn. Ever happened to you? What kind of damage did I do?
Hey, Brian. Great video. I know this is off topic but do you plan on doing any VR 3d videos in the future? I watch some UA-cam on my oculus 2 VR headset and would love to watch your videos in 3d or 360.
That one attachment for the mower almost justifies owning it if you do a lot of mulch jobs. I have a subcompact tractor with a front end loader I use on really big jobs but it’s too clumsy for smaller residential lots. I’m trying finish 2 more lawn dethatching jobs then have about a dozen cleanups that just require blowers. Problem is I will have to mow 9 accounts end of this week or very beginning of next. We have been getting huge temperature swings the last week, it was 19 degrees with snow on the ground this morning. I don’t know why I still live in Michigan.
Today solo I knocked out a 15 yd mulch job. Edged beds weeded and mulch all done in less than 8 hrs. All the mulch was moved with a 10 and 4 cubic yd wheel barrow. 900.00 day.😍👍💪
900 for installing 15 yards of mulch? Plus edging and weeding? Was that your take home pay after all expenses or all combined? I price mulching at $100-120/yard depending on the amount of prep involved. Ontario here.
@@Pantelifts10 900 was my gross profit. 100 to 120 is hard too get in my area because of the amount of competition.100 is the top end pricing. I charge 80 a yd for mulch. The edging and weeding was priced separately per hour at 70 an hour. I did the whole job solo.
Congrats man! Work hard and use the resources like UA-cam or Lawterpenuer academy “Brian’s Academy” the whole ball of wax is on sale right now I definitely recommend it it really helped me out.
Amazing how much easier the pitchforks are to move mulch! Hey Brian, how would you like to educate some of our homeowners over here in Brighton about landscaping and lawn maintenance?
How is the multi force mowing so far since your now using the 2021? I’m a exmark guy but buying one and wanted some feed back on lines, wet grass and throw? Thanks
I know this step would take extra time, but I think it either makes or breaks a mulch job IMO. After we are done installing mulch I require my guys to use a rake and then smooth out the mulch with the backside. Adds on maybe an extra 5-10 min but definitely makes it look awesome and smooth.
How come you did not show that you were shoveling the mulch out of the beds back into the dump bucket. Creative editing when you dump too much mulch, come on Rob your making the UA-cam star look like a rookie. LOL inside joke just happened to drive by at the right time on this job.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance was meeting someone at my gun club or else I would have stoped and given moral support. LOL You know the Fat Guy does not shovel.

I know right bro 👍
Just found this channel and I live in Michigan as well and my names Brian!
Welcome!
@@BriansLawnMaintenance how’s the toro do for mowing was looking into getting one?
Yesssss!! So glad you got it done.💯😀👍🏾🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
Hey it’s Mike the tow truck driver. It was nice to meet you today. Thanks for being so cool!
Hey that’s awesome brother!

Good productive day fellas. You came so close to completion. Good luck getting done what you can, before the snow.💯❤️😀👍🏾🙋🏽♀️✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸
So close!

The multiforce is a money maker. The Boss Plow does the work of 4 shovelers.
Did 20 yards today with wheel barrels.. took 9 hours. Finally done.. Stoney Lake Yard Works.. Peterborough Ontario Canada.. love you vids
Hey! Someone else from Peterborough! 👋 You work mainly around Stoney?
Nice!! 👊
How many people? Did 10 the other day with wheelbarrows as well. Full day on my own..Ontario close to you
Mowing when it isn't snowing in Denver, 4" last night... Should be out mowing Wednesday and Thursday, cleanup and 4.5 yard mulch install Friday. Maybe a few aerations/fertilizing on Saturday.
Thanks for the daily vids! Just dealing with a lot of rain right now, have to do 5 days of mowing in 3, we will see how that goes 🙂
Nicely done! Putting in the work .💯

Literally said the same thing about pitchforks the other day when I needed to get one
Those pitchforks are great.
April snow showers bring may flowers.
The pitch forks are nice, especially for spreading around plants etc. I prefer to scoop it out of my truck or trailer with a big aluminum grain shovel.

Another nice video. Ran in snow on Tuesday in central Illinois. Parts of Kansas got over 5 inches of the crap.
Just did a mulch job and woooo what a workout
Spring cleanups in Northern Maine. Earliest ones ever. Been a beautiful April so far. Need rain here.
Had to get it all done by Mon/Tue because that 3-6 inches of snow you're getting in Michigan, we're about to get here in Buffalo, NY lol. Couple more days though and we'll be back in the 60s. Damn great lakes region weather...
Awesome video guys!!! 👍
Nice vlog 👍🏼 those pitch forks are the best for mulch work!!
Truck always looks clean
Always.
Plowing snow this morning! Ready for warmer weather.
It's crazy, we're getting snow here as we speak!
Hey Brian, love the videos man. Have a question for your I left the oil fill cap loose on my mower and realized after mowing about 1qt. Of oil spewed out over an entire lawn. Ever happened to you? What kind of damage did I do?
Hey it is Gabe from Ace hardware! It was awesome meeting you.
Hey hey!
That dump cart is super handy !!!
I used to work for a lawn care company and we had an apartment complex that was 200 yards of mulch. Took a week to do
Are we gonna see any snow attachments on the MULTI FORCE??? Hmmmm🤔
I have stihl fs 91r trimmer and I love it!
I'm sold on the Multi-Force.
Hey, Brian. Great video. I know this is off topic but do you plan on doing any VR 3d videos in the future? I watch some UA-cam on my oculus 2 VR headset and would love to watch your videos in 3d or 360.
Doing clean ups.and fertilization.
Just hoping for a good season

I been doing clean ups mulch and mowing here in Pa
Tarp loads of bark work good too. Load em drag and dump em.
Great work, your raking in the big bucks
Haha I wish, we're doing okay though! #hustle
I decided to start my own lawn care business. Going to start off by just cutting lawns and slowly get into everything else.
Congrats man! Work hard and use the resources like UA-cam or Lawterpenuer academy “Brian’s Academy” the whole ball of wax is on sale right now I definitely recommend it it really helped me out.
Amazing how much easier the pitchforks are to move mulch! Hey Brian, how would you like to educate some of our homeowners over here in Brighton about landscaping and lawn maintenance?
Haha I hope to live in Brighton and relax in Brighton 😁
Brian, how much was the dumper dog insert including install?? Great video, great job brother!
$4k plus or minus!
Dealing with all the above lol it has been hard this spring running 7 days a week to keep up
That must have been a ton of work editing yourself spreading mulch! LOL. We woke up to 3.5" of snow. Absolutely crazy!
Haha!
How is the multi force mowing so far since your now using the 2021? I’m a exmark guy but buying one and wanted some feed back on lines, wet grass and throw? Thanks
We haven’t set it up for mowing yet as we’re still using it for clean ups and mulch.
TORO Mulch Force, is more than going to pay for itself in just labor costs alone.
Michigan has crazy weather. Yo
We've been mowing a lot of weeds and spring grass here in sw Arkansas.
When you cut lawns do you not edge every week? I heard at the beginning you talking about not edging. Or is that customers who don’t want edging?
We edge biweekly for our accounts
Snowing here in Indiana. A bunch!
Same here!
Awesome video bro 👍
How often should you remove all old mulch and put new mulch down?
All depends on the client. For us we just relayer.
I have been rototiling a lot already this season. I like the toro you have what is and how much?
Nice! The unit is $11-$12k, the dump force is under $2k!
I got to do some multching today.
So ur the reason my dad just bought an 8.5 x 20 sure trac
Haha nice!
Amazing are you video editing yourself?
Yes sir
You should have gone to manards for the pitch fork
The pitch forks for up to $70 now at least by me! I thought I might by two but I can only afford one lol
Thundah huh is there a lightning 😂😂
The Tessy :)
My favorite video bro 👍
When you mow and get grass in the beds, how do you get the grass out but keep the mulch in the beds still?
Just feather the mulch with the leaf blower
I know this step would take extra time, but I think it either makes or breaks a mulch job IMO. After we are done installing mulch I require my guys to use a rake and then smooth out the mulch with the backside. Adds on maybe an extra 5-10 min but definitely makes it look awesome and smooth.
We definitely do that afterwards as well. Great tip.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance keep up the great work
Can it handle topsoil, or would it be too heavy?
It maxes out at 200 lbs I think, don't quote me on that.
I can’t even find a pitchfork in Asheville NC
Your the best
No, you are!
Question does anyone know if the Ariens zero turn 42’ mower cuts and leaves a clean path with the mulching kit on it?
Can't you run it into a pile to fill it. We've been filling barrows with a dingo. Cut the work in half. Much love from Michigan.
br800 man that's a good blower.
Hi where did you get your hat? Can you let me know? Thanks!
The Carhartt one was given to me
HEY BRIAN IM DOWN IN S.C. CAN YOU SWING BY AND HIT MY YARD FOR ME DUDE ???? LMAO !
😁😆
could you do a driving with a trailer training video?
I’ll see what I can do!
Hopefully we will not have Vlog of plowing on Friday. We have about little over an inch at 9 am and still coming come down hard.
Try a wheelbarrow.
Why?
That narrative is on the Toro though
Watch blowing that stuff down the storm drain on video.
How come you did not show that you were shoveling the mulch out of the beds back into the dump bucket. Creative editing when you dump too much mulch, come on Rob your making the UA-cam star look like a rookie. LOL inside joke just happened to drive by at the right time on this job.
😂😂 we didn’t have the camera on and that was Saturday, this was Monday, doh! Way to land a hand shoveling, yeesh 🤣
@@BriansLawnMaintenance was meeting someone at my gun club or else I would have stoped and given moral support. LOL You know the Fat Guy does not shovel.
I detail privet jets
Bro pull that down with a hard rake into that bucket... fill that thing up in 30 seconds
We did. Lol
mowing guy talking about margins
I bet our company margins beat yours any day 😂😂😂 get a life.
you are making double the trips because your not heaping that mini bucket.
You can't overload it. The capacity is only 200 lbs or so.
Lay a tarp behind your truck and dump that truck on it. Small bites of coarse
Amazing video bro 👍
Thanks 🔥
