A 32" gear drive bobcat would be less then $3000 a standard push around $300 for a decent one. but you could most likely find enough work to start out without taking gated yards.

Lawn care business tips

All the time most of my yards have double gates and the ones that don't we have smaller mowers I tell customers if they put I'm bigger gates the cost will go down

I have a gravely pro60 also, and i dont like i cant get in back yards either.

However Gravely has been around a long time and is imo pretty reputable.

They have a 32inch zero thats commercial and one thats residential, im thinking about getting the residential one to accompany my 60inch commercial mower.

I dont see myself buying a push or walkbehind unless its a good deal.

for your references, you will have to give them some professional references or something, untill u can get some yard references.

I have everything in place except the jurisdiction license which I pick up next Tuesday. I'll hit the neighborhoods then.

I'll post in a couple of weeks to update all.
