Pricing Formula Target: Target $65–$85 per man-hour on-site.
What it Includes: Mowing, string trimming (weed whacking) around all borders/fences, hard-edge trimming with a stick edger along driveways/walkways, and blowing all clippings off hard surfaces.

Mulch and rock are priced by material volume (cubic yards or tons), which covers the material cost, delivery, bed preparation, and labor.

A. Mulch Application

B. Decorative Rock Application

Price Range: $200 – $350 per ton (installed, depending on rock type like river rock or marble chips).
Breakdown:
Rock requires dynamic labor, weed barrier fabric installation, and heavy material handling. Extra charge if existing mulch/dirt needs removal or excavation before laydown.

Priced by line-item size or linearly, with height being the biggest factor.

Small / Individual Bushes (Under 4 ft): $10 – $20 per bush.
Linear Privacy Hedges (Under 6 ft tall): $3 – $5 per linear foot.
Tall Hedges (6 ft – 12 ft tall): $6 – $10+ per linear foot (requires ladder/extended pole-hedge trimmers).
Haul-Away & Disposal Fee: $75 debris disposal fee (only if included with trim services; haul-away requests are disposal fee + gas)

Prices vary depending on service frequency and initial condition.

A. Initial / First-Time Cut Upcharge

An unmaintained lawn requires double-mowing, heavy line trimming, clogged discharge chutes, and excessive cleanup time.
Initial cut priced at 1.5x to 2x standard pricing.

B. Weekly vs. Bi-Weekly Pricing

Bi-weekly lawn care requires taking off double the growth, which puts higher wear on equipment and takes ~40% longer to mow and blow out.

Weekly Service: Your base rate (minimum $50/visit).
Bi-Weekly Service: 1.5x weekly rate (e.g., if weekly is $50, bi-weekly will be $75/visit).
Monthly / On-Call: Charged at initial cut rates, as it is essentially an overgrown cleanup job every single time.
