Default Chemical price ???

Hi to all, I have several annual maintenance contracts but do not do the lawn treatments. I'm wanting to add the lawn treatments to the contract with a local chemical company. Can any one tell me a price on treatments per acer. Any help would be great.

Lawn care business tips
How would you be doing this? Would you be subcontracting it out to a local fert company or doing this yourself?

I would probally just hire a company that is licensed for chemicals. I'm just trying to get an idea of what a price is per acer / or a square foot price.

Well could you talk with a few licensed contractors in your area and see which you seem to work best with?

Once you find that, you can get from them their pricing structure so you could bid the job to the customer.

Would you want to take a percentage of the job or would you want to refer to the contractor in exchange for them referring jobs to you?
