Odd job hourly rate

[F3Nelson]

I am curious as to what everyone is charging for labor. I mean jobs that arent mowing, fertilizing.......but say like trimming bushes or leaf removal. Thanks

Companies we have with us are in a ballpark from $35 to $65 Depending on job. From trimming to cleanups.

There are industry standards you can follow as well. I would try and find out what your comp is charging for labor rates and go from there.

Then you needs to put it up against your overhead and see if it all makes sense.

Here is a labour rate card for Ontario, Canada...wont be accurate for the United States but you'll get the idea.
