I'm am currently running a 60" Super Z and 52" Gateway wb, which I only use for about two hours a week.
Since I almost exclusively use the Super Z I bill at $60-65/hr, sometimes I use a combo of time and sq ft at $1/1000 sq ft, but mostly the $60-65/hr way.
I plan on buying a 72" Lazer Z nect year and am wondering since I'll have about a 20% increase in productivity (and won't have to double cut as much as I did with the Super Z) if I could get about $75/hr on the accounts that I would use the 72" on.
Now a $25 or $30 lawn would still be a $25 or $30 lawn but I could still make about $75/ hr since I could cut it faster. I know on lawns that are 1/3 acre and less I eighter couldn't use it or it wouldn't really save much time, but for 1/2 acres and up would this be a good idea to bid at around $75.
I also know that it depends on your equipment, a 36" wb could only get around $30-35/hr. And when I ran a 48" WB I billed at $45 since it's smaller and slower than a 60" Z.
So what do you guys think, can I bill at around $75/hr with a 72" Lazer Z?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
thankyou kindly,
Dan
