Hey guys just saw this and was thrilled to see there was a good amount of people from ri on here! I am fairly new to the business but have been growing pretty steadily and am hoping for the best for everyone
Hey Mike, I dunno.....you wanna try and do this after clean-ups but before Christmas?? Maybe a Lawnsite RI Christmas Party? Then maybe we can all get together up at NE Grows? I got my email the other day from them about early registration.
Why are you getting rid of the west warwick route? I might be interested
I am not interested in going over there anymore. Its an inconvienance.
I had three kids on this summer. If i got rid of that route i could cut down expenses. So i guess you could say im refining my travel routes and days working.
One would be the house i was doing this summer when you went by.
I would say after the new year would be good? I typically work into the middle of december.
And I have a new born on the way anytime this month so im going to be busy for a little bit.

Hey whats up all.. bumping this thread, just stumbled upon it. Did that meeting every happen? I think it is a good idea. Just got back from the GIE expo in Kentucky.
I'm curious to see how you guys come up with a price in regards to curbside leaf pick ups. I haven't done alot of them, but want to do more of them this year, but I want the pricing to be spot on. I have a couple places I can dump for free, and the rest up in the northern part of the state I dump at the landfill for $20.00 a load.
I'm not looking for your prices, just a formula to make sure I have everything covered, ex:
time to suck up pile x dumping fee x mileage = price?

haha of course! I just moved out of Charlestown. I lived on Biscuit City Rd. for a while. Just moved to West Greenwich. I own Lawns by Steve. Yourself, Ralph?
Well, I just added organic to my name, so its Ralph's Organic Yard Care. I have lived here for 32 years - have been working for 2 years full time and 5 parttime.
awesome. I myself started the business 4 years ago. Only spread my business through word of mouth, so I haven't grown too big and I'm pretty spread out everywhere in RI. This winter and next year however I want to focus on growing.
My personal email is rboragine@msn.com. I just dumped a dozen customers this past spring and summer to really focus on my core business which is total yard care.
