The very first lawn I quoted was just like the mentioned at the beginning of the video. I told the customer I'd do it for $200 and boy did I screw up. The leaves had compressed, the bottom layer was soaking wet, there were limbs and debris and literal trash under the leaves. I ended up putting 20 hours into that job. But at least the customer stiffed me when it came time for me to get paid. I definitely learned my lesson there.
@@darthvaderoftheredpill5196 they kept trying to add stuff to the order and when I said I wasn't doing it they claimed that we had already agreed on it. They said they weren't paying me full price so I ended up getting $100 for 20 hours of work. My other mistake was not having a written and signed work order so the customer couldn't say I didn't finish what we agreed on.
Michigan state university did a study on leaf mulching that showed that it's not only safe for lawns but beneficial. Up to 6" of leaves can be mulched at a time. Something to think about if it's the right kind of lawn and you want to save a lot of time, bags and gas money driving it all to the dump.
Im 3 yards in, and its been two weeks since ive started. Should have charged more for each of em. All i can say is yesterday price is not today’s price 😂
Great tips thank you. I have been practicing pressure washing and window cleaning on my friends houses until I go knock doors. Im gonna get a leaf blower and start knocking doors right away since its fall!
Don’t know if I have bid a clean up at 3 times less than what it’s taken. Maybe 1.5 times. But makes me hustle more. Every clean up you learn from. Hopefully most of your clean ups are recurring, so you can adjust price next clean up.
Even if he got less jobs at higher price, and still made the same after the season as he did getting more at lower price, it would be less work, more free time.
Ngl that wouldnt work in my area people want to know a price so then can compare to other prices or know what there gonna spend. Also its not that many variables walk through the leafs see how wet and heavy the pile is lol
How do you know it won't work? Have you tried it. I've been doing it that way for the last 15 years the only thing I give a bid price on is mowing and fertilizing. It's all on how you sell yourself to the customer.

Very much appreciated!
Kinda of leaves or tree play a role in pricing also.

Omg this is really good and now ik for when I start doing this
Did he get more clients at $65 or when he raise the price or did it even matter?
Even if he got less jobs at higher price, and still made the same after the season as he did getting more at lower price, it would be less work, more free time.
What the heck do you do with the leaves? Blow them into other yards?😂
Price it by how short you are from getting up your rent money for the month
