Never thought to tip the lawn service. We don't tip the trash removal folks either but we appreciate all of them.
I know where you're coming from. I never really thought about it until I moved to the Villages. When I lived in the "historic section" the grass guy, a retired Villager, gave me a calendar every year. What did I know about tipping? Not much. He charged 25 dollars a month. So before Christmas I would add $5 dollars to his monthly check, as a tip. Well, he was working for himself so I figured if he wanted more money all he would have to do is raise his price.

I don't tip trash removal either.
