If it is something that big then yes will be more money and I guess it wouldn't be by the hour. When I say 20 minutes to do that I'm adding in the time for me to go get fertilizer, etc.. I don't store anything in my garage as it is crowded enough with equipment. I use a simple Scotts spreader. What do you use if it is a 11k s.f. lawn? Matt

Man that is nice! I want one badly!!! Lot's of fun growing the business slowly and buying better and better equipment.
