Fuel estimate

[jak2703]

I am wondering what someone could expect to spend in fuel each week, just an average. I will be starting next spring. I really have no idea what to expect in fuel for the lawnmowers. I will be using 21 inch push mower, 36 inch walk behind, and hand tools. Thanks for the help.

I'm 17 and have a small business right now. I have about 12 accounts weekly. I spend about $30 in gas each week. I have a ford f-150, a 48in walkbehind, and some 21in mowers.

We are fairly small also, I run three trucks, one mowing crew with two 36 wb and 21 plus trimmers blowers ect. and we do hardscape and install work 3 to 4 days a week plus misc maint. and odd jobs, I spend on average $1000.00 per month on fuel alone.

There are so many variable to figure in. The size and number of properties/accounts, your tow vehicle, and the price of fuel, (who knows how much more it will go up). One account I have takes about 22 gallons just for the mowers. I average about $250 per week in fuel and oil cost.

It really depends on how many lawns & how far apart they are. For the truck, mowers, & hand held equipment I typically drop around $325 a week in fuel in the spring, but only about $200 a week this time of the year. The equipment works a lot harder when the grass is wet & thick.

over $1000/month in fuel, half in the trucks, half in the mowers. the ZTR's are using about 5 galons a day each cutting 20-25 lawns.
