Doesn’t @jjgold cut grass for a living?

Or is he a sharecropper? I forget

 

[carolinakid]

[samsncharge99]

I do my own. Few hours a week

 

[RRsilver]

I do it. It takes me a lot longer than it used too. Especially the weed eating.

We have a lot of weeds / bushes in our front yard but we have a gardener that comes every month. We pay about $60 a month

If you weren't going to mow your own lawn what in the f*** was the point in buying a house?

 

[edawg]

People pay someone to mow their yards and then pay for a gym membership to do an exercise called the lawnmower.

Wait. Its $100 regardless of yard size?
That makes no sense. Come on over and mow my neighbors half acre for $100. He'll love you for it.
Literally.... I think he might be gay.

2-3 hours for ours. A decent size yard. Just under 1/2 acre.

Do it myself

Gonna need to get a bigger mower at some point - 42” deck is too small and dumping out the bagger becoming a pain.

Need something like a 72” to cut the mow time in half.

Mowing your grass or washing your car is also a good form of exercise.

 

[ttwarrior1]

if not mowed with a regular mower. Its not as good imo

For those who pay - what’s the rate in your area and amount of lawn ?

Neighbor does my rental property - he’s cheap ($50 for about an acre with a steep slope in front) - but does it like every damn week. I don’t need it mowed every week - 2x a month is sufficient.

By the time I buy even a beat up used rider though and drive down - and probably just as cheap to pay them though.

Agree - if you don’t use a dedicated mower - it looks like crap.

When I had a broken leg, it was $75 for a little < 0.5 acre. $100 if I have them edge everything (fenceline, drive, sidewalk). Felt kind of robbed but I was screwed.

Mowing is nothing - sit and ride around.

Running weed/brush cutter is a decent workout - especially when I run the brush cutter.

Washing a car/truck - never thought it would be a half day thing until I bough a new one and cared about how it looked. Now it’s a damn process - wash to start the year (2x) - break out the ceramic coat and do that whole process of applying and then a final wash - then wash/wax the next weekend or when I have the chance. Last for about 6 months - so basically do it in spring and then do another before winter. After that - just a wash every weekend or every other weekend depending on how dirty it is and wax every couple months. Ceramic coat really does repel dirt and rain.
