Theres only one small town here that offers curbside pick ups. I had a few cleanups in that town this year and it was great!

But no other towns around here offer it, so almost every LCO will do a one time pick up. One guy banks on leaves big time here, he bought a 20' dump trailer and its just one big leaf box, 13' tall. I guess he tries to rake in (no pun intended) as much money as he can before snow fall.

Lawn care business tips
I don't know if there is a market for this or not, but what if you could advertsie we will suck up your leaves if you pile them on the curb. Maybe show one rate if you have to rake them up yourself and another rate if the homeowner does it.

Would people jump on such a service?
