Here's a quick video on how to do another basic leaf clean up. It only took about 45 minutes to do this fall clean up, which really isn't that bad. This yard had some tall grasses to prune along with the shrubs, but overall it was a nice simple fall clean up.
I am trying to answer your guy's questions when I do these to give you some of my fall clean up tips and advice, so if you have questions, leave them below. Most of my fall clean ups are $90-$150 range for subdivision style homes where I live. Hope that helps!

Quick tip on tall grass. Have a roll of string. Tie up the tall grass and then use hedge trimmer to do a clean cut off the bottom. Now it's already tied up into a bundle and easier,faster to dispose of. Any loose stuff blow into the yard and bag it with the mower. Thanks for the video. It's good for us guys to learn off each other. This is my personal account, not my business account lol. My company name is not Italian fighter. ROFL.

I and my son, we have a small business, mostly in our neighborhood. We did only the front yard which included racking up leaves and mulching after, plus the clean up with leave blower. We did only the front yard. My bid was at 40$ she said no way, then ask me if 80$ would work instead, my bottom jaw dropped. After completion she said that her yard looked 1000 times better and tip me an extra 20$. Total price came out to 100$ cash for a 55 minute job on a 2k sqf house. Bless her.

Hey Brian, I run 4 exmarks. When cleaning up leaves we run a couple of the mowers with the mulch kits over the yard first then run the vac. That cuts your vac time by 2/3. Plus a whole lot less debris. Been doing it for 25 years.

We went pretty late into the 2017 season too. I don't think we finished up until like Dec 20th ourselves. As far as leaf clean ups go, before this spring, I had only used attachable aluminum catchers on our Gravely 52in and 36in mowers because they are all stand ups. The catchers don't hold that much, so leaf clean ups were a pain in the butt because we had to empty the catchers so often. We just got a 60in a few weeks ago with a mulch kit, to handle some of our clients that have bigger yards, and wow the little bit of cleaning we did here for the start of the 2018 season was so much faster. The amount of leaves that thing can hold before I had to empty was kind of surprising.

If you're saving them 6 hours of back breaking work, for most people, $100-$150-$200 is money well spent to enjoy their afternoon and not die of a heart attack raking leaves. Hope that helps!

@@mufozomby7637 I agree -- Folks, the name of the game is offer quality & make profit. That being said, if they did this whole job in only 45mins; then, I'm very impressed....2 guys may have been at the property for 45mins-75mins, but you still had travel time (before & after), which must be charged for. Then, always include a base fee for equipment being used (blowers, mowers, bagging system, truck, trailer, even hand tools, all get wear & tear & gas is used) -- (EX: Base rate Travel/Equipment $25-50, then labor for work + travel to cover payroll, then toss another $50-100 at least for profit). And, don't forget DUMPING FEE: (minimum of $25-100) -- I don't care if you're composting the waste, or dumping in woods, taking it to a landfill or recycle center, charge for it & make $$. If dumping fee is $25, you charge $50. Always add a small bit of profit to every item included to get the job done. I like the idea of ball parking ESTIMATE figure (EX: $100-125), but make sure you explain that only covers a specific amt. of time, or discuss with them if you hit budget cap to make sure they are in agreement with adding a little more $$ to get more items done, or spending more time than originally anticipated. There are plenty of clients out there who will add crap mid-job, or as you pull up. Don't be afraid to add a small amount on at the first request of extra work. You don't have to charge an arm & a leg, but be reasonable to yourself, so you are honest, fair, but get PAID for your hard work. If y'all are busting your butt, working hard, shelling out serious $$ for new/better equipment, you must always pay yourself very well & your workers, and have profit leftover to grow -- even if growing is only buying newer/bigger equipment to do more jobs/or do them safer/easier.

Wow $125. I did a house with just a slightly smaller yard and charged them $75 for the leaf clean up plus the lawn cut obviously. I did the same thing, blew out the beds and all along the perimeter of the house. When I was done, the whole yard was covered in leaves haha I mulched everything with a 21" push mower, it's what I had at the time, and then I finisned it and the yard looked amazing. I went to collect money and the lady said "all you did was go over the lawn with the lawn mower. You didn't do anything different, it looks the same" I was like there's no leaves here, your lawn is really green you wanted a leaf cleanup and that's what I did. It's not like I can change the lawn lol I got rid of all the leaves and there was a ton of leaves!. And the lady gave me $40 instead of $75. I was like damn, I was pissed telling her it took a lot of machine time for me to do this and she kept saying yeah but it was too easy. I was like what the hell lol too easy? $40 bucks bro.

Great video, I'm starting to record leaf clean ups too, I like to video record it, fast pace it and post it on my account, turns out to be a very satisfying video to watch :P

Great video Brian. When you do fall clean ups do you still weed eat and edge or do you just pick up leaves (basic fall clean up no extra stuff)

@BriansLawnMaintenance 6 жыл бұрын

Nope no edging or trimming. Spring maybe to get things back in order, but that’s usually for a new client. That way I’m not stuck there for 30 minutes come mowing time getting that edge line back.

Dude; not sure of what part of the country you're located in but you should be charging no less than $250.00 for clean ups. No matter how small the yard is. You do quality work and you should get paid for it. Just my asvice. I did a clean up for a customer yesterday who has a much smaller yard but let the grass get pretty high and the hedges were ooc. Leaves were pressed into the ground in the backyard so had to do some raking. Final charge for her was $450.00. Up yout prices slightly bro.

@timdagg1699 6 жыл бұрын

In my market its hard to get that amount of money for 1.5 man hours. Out of curiosity what is a cut worth on that size lawn. My customers have no issue paying but the competition is plentiful that keeps the prices low. Keep in mind I am in Canada our economy leaves a bit to be disired

@kidringo1257 5 жыл бұрын

Does he let u dump in the woods behind the house? Dragging all the debris off takes you and your truck out of service an hour maybe 45 min ???? Gotta charge 80 an hour for that. You could do another lawn in that time...that's how i do it ....seems high but the reality is any pickup with 2 mowers can earn 80/hr.

Brian, I have a few customers that I mow for and they pay me to bag their grass. However, last fall it took me 3-4x as long to mow because of all the leaves. How do you go about telling your customer that they need to be charged for a fall cleanup? Is it just as simple as that being blunt about it? I don’t want to lose clients but I also want to get paid for my work. Thanks, Jared

@BriansLawnMaintenance 6 жыл бұрын

It's not wrong or disrespectful to tell them they need additional services for it to be done right. I would absolutely be charging a 2x weekly premium in the fall or even more to mow and bag the leaf debris. We mulch/discharge them through the regular mowing season of October, and perform clean ups in November. Get paid what you think you should and don't accept customers who want to cheap out.
