You need to seriously relook at your prices. There is no way long island wont bear a better price per acre. I have seen quotes and contracts from the island and they are NEVER that low.

The lowest I charge is $3.50 or so per thousand. So thats about $150 per acre. But your lawn has to be 1.5 acres or more to get that rate.

Then the smaller the lawn the more I charge, up to about $8 per 1000 on a 5k sqft lawn.

Also I should mention these rates only apply to my 5 step program. Single applications would be more.
