Pretty conservative around us. Cut on Sunday and you'll lose business.

I try to get to the job site by 8am-mon thru fri. No weekends

[script]

I start at 0700 weedkays, and don't work weekends.(unless drastically behind) then I'll start at 1000 on Sat.

Down here it really depends on where you are going. Some small communities can and will enforce noise pollution during certain hours of the day..usually before 9 am and after 9 pm. We try to do commercial at the earliest times starting at 8 am then hit those residential accounts. No weekends here.

I start on the site at 10am and work no later than 5pm. I try not to start before 8am when busy.

It all depends on season. Lot of us are younger and we perfer to start later. Spring Fall around 7 AM or when frost is gone. Summer 930 or so....

I leave the house at 0800 (8:00 AM for us civilians) and work 'til 5:00. Rarely work any weekends anymore and it does wonders for my psyche... :)

I'm usually at my first lawn during the week by 7:30 am. Weekends I push off til 8:30-9 am (Saturdays only and then only if there is a good reason). Only problem starting so early is the first couple lawns are usually wet with dew which usually causes me to have to scrape the deck later in the morning to remove the buildup (thus my handle "Scraper"). :)

Has a lot to do with the weather, about 9am weekdays, and weekends well..i would be out of buisness cutting on sat. that is when everyone is enjoying their lawn, maybe late sat if needed, after 11am.But i have to be way behind.Residentials here like to be in their lawn doing whatever on sat and sun. Commercial you can cut on the weekend here.

Pulling out of the driveway around 7:45 and we never cut later than 5:00pm, nobody wants to hear mowers at dinner time! Some Saturdays mostly commercial. Never on Sunday if I can help it.

Good Luck!

...and you will find their neighbor using your tires for archery target practice.

Very possible.
