How to start a lawn mowing business - What you need

Many people in the lawn mowing business, without all the appropriate equipment. This leads to not being able to complete the mowing efficiently enough to make profits and lead to failure. New business equipment is the best because it usually comes with a three year warranty, but the downside is that you pay a high price. Commercial equipment is second best because it is built to last and it retains its value very well. proprietary hardware is not compatible with your mowing business.

These mowers are only made to be used for about 1 hour once a week. They will fail on you. The only equipment I buy cheap mowers are. I found that, when used in the trade, a hand mower $ 120 last as long as a push mower $ 650. About 2 years.


Here is the basic equipment needed to start your lawn mowing business.

1. A good reliable truck

Bank your trucks with these supplies:

Replacement Set / Sets sharp blades.
repair kit plug tires.

Small air pump. (With power adapter)
A complete set of tools. (Home Depot sells a good set of tools Husky in a case for about $ 120)
Spool of thread trimmer. (Get the good stuff. Linebreaking cheap.)
Envelope for receipts and expenditures of gas.
Ledger to record expenses. (Most of your expenses are tax deductible.)

2. Landscape trailer.

You will need a trailer that is at least 8 feet long. An 8 'trailer can contain all
equipment on this list. Trailer 12 'would be better if, as it adds more equipment that you develop. You will need a rack with two mower and blower grid for the trailer. In my area, I can find used trailers for about $ 600 new anywhere up to $ 1,600 for a 12 'trailer.

Also you can check eBay for used trailer ads.
