Lawn Mowing Services
My lawn service provider just upped our monthly charge to $60.00/month for mowing once a week beginning March 1. During the winter months they show up just once every 6 weeks. I think $60.00 is a bit high. Anyone have someone they like for less money?

They raised it BY $60/month, or it's NOW $60/month?
If you're paying $60/month for weekly mowing, SIGN ME UP! |
Sign me up too we were at $120 a month and didn’t show up for 6 weeks. We fired them, bought a electric for $600. Mow when we need to, lawn always looks great, and mower was officially paid for itself last month. Now lawn care is Free, except for our time:D

Started to do it myself. The cost is now longer commensurate with the task
|
We were paying $50 a month...they'd mow 'n blow once a month, though it was supposed to be every other week. I wasn't unhappy with the service, but many times it looked as though they didn't actually do anything.
Decided to buy a small battery powered unit from amazon (Worx WG779) and now do it myself as needed. |

However you have an interesting point, I will need to 'survey' (estimate) what we have and see if a battery powered unit would be suitable. |

Just remember when buying a electric mower, the time they advertise is not the actual "mowing time",
It's the "run time". I bought a electric Kobalt 20" from a neighbor that moved back up north and it came with a 5 amp battery. I don't know the size of my lot, but the 5 amp was to small and died before I finished. I have Kobalt 2 amp batteries from other Kobalt tools and been using them to finish my lawn. I see the new Kobalt comes with 6 amps now, |
