Hey, you looking for any work around Zelienople area? Kinda between North Sewickly and Zelie?

[Trevor8]

you can beat a dodge all you have to do is by a ford, chevy, or toyota dodges break down a lot

So do Fords, Chevys and Toyotas. Depends on how they're taken care of.

It's a weekly/bi-weekly account at the intersection of Route 68 and Hartzell School Road, by Young's ice cream stand. It'll start next year. They're my buddy's grandparents. Real easy going, kind of a "mow it when you can" type deal. It's just too out of my way without any other accounts that way.

ya thats alil far out for me thanks for thinking about me though. hows your year going ? whats the price on the cut?

[93Chevy]

If I were close, I'd probably charge $30, but since it's a haul with no other accounts that way, it'd be $40 or $50 for me. It's an easy cut, maybe 1/2 to 3/4 acre, but not a lot of grass. As long as it gets trimmed every 2-3 weeks and blown off every time, they won't complain. Just sit on the Z and go to town. I told my buddy I could do it for $30 if he gets me two more accounts that way.

Season was awesome this year. Only missed about 1 or 2 cuts for each property last two months. The rain really helped me out. How about yourself?

[2brothersyardcare]

looks good man

Girlfriend? What the heck is that, lol. I've been single going on two years, haha. I just picked up a 16' tandem axle open trailer two months ago. My boss is letting me use his older TTHP to finish the season, then next year, I'll have a 48" ZTR. I'll graduate school next December, then probably go full time a little after that. I want to get into design and construction, not this grass cutting crap. Pays the bills, but I'm not making a big profit with it. Have a good one :waving:

[Lawn Freak]

Get a blower and go to town. Snows fun, but I agree with you on it sucks about the work slowing down. I'm hoping to sell alot of overseeding and stuff this year.

[93Chevy]

Tim you going to college for business or horticulture? BTW do you guys have a facebook?

I'm going for business. Plan on getting an online degree in hort. I already have the hands on experience, so I just need the theory. Yeah, I have a facebook, last name is Baird.

when you say overseeding are you talking aerating then seeding?

[93Chevy]

Well, no, but that's easy money also. It's better to plug aerate first, but my customers are too cheap for that.

oh okay yeah I will. I have a bolens walkbehind edger Then I clean it all up with a shovel and usually do a quick over with the string trimmer sideways so it looks real nice. Sometimes I don't even use the edger though just a shovel and string trimmer.

is it worth it for an edger? i mean what do you think ? how deep does one of those cut?

[93Chevy]

I use a trenchblade on my sidewalk edger and give a quick clean up with the shovel and string trimmer. Works real well, even for new installs.
