I stay away from bidding jobs, I stay strictly Residential. Give them a price and they take or they leave it.
I do a used car lot and a office next to it. owned by the same guy. ( he is 78)
He lives on 8 acres that he cuts.
There is a double wide in one corner that he rents. The renter cuts the whole 8 acres for $50 leaves clipping everywhere.
He uses the owners 60 inch exmark.
He is moving this month.
I told him I would do it for $250.
To include trimming and edging that I already do for him for $50
He wants me to do it all using his mower for $50
After explaining to him that I could do more then $200 worth of yards in the 4 hours it takes to do his. He said ok to $200
Land is flat and smooth.
Really do not want to cut his 8 acres but he has got me a lot if work from his friends.
