If you have a lawn service how much do you pay per week? Basic mowing and weed eating the edges. Lot size is about 1/4 acre (that is front and back yards total). We are trying to get an idea of how much to pay someone to do this (not going with a company). May also include dog poo pick up as well.
Located in city of about 250k in PNW
Thanks!

We have a mow and blow service that comes weekly. I’m not actually sure what we pay - maybe like $150 per month. In the Bay Area. No dog poo involved.

I'm in Central NY. My yard is also about 1/4 acre. Last season I paid $36.72/week to mow and edge. I'm responsible for picking up the poop before they come.
I received a notice that the price is going up this year, but I don't know how much yet.

About $55 per week (no dog.) I have an acre of tough yard with lots of beds and a crazy hill.

I'm in MS and pay $40 every other week. No poop. (It went up $5 this year.) I might need the name of your person! I pay $80 every other week. My yard is about 2/3 acre, which is pretty big, but the backyard is flat with no obstructions, so it doesn't take much time on the big mower. And mine went up $5, too, due to gas prices. |

Our HOA maintains the front yard. DH maintains our backyard but we hire someone to do the backyard at our rental. $100 a month for every other week service. We used to pay $70 for every week.

Here, dog waste removal is a completely separate service. There are companies that do only that.
Typically you schedule it so that poo removal comes right before the lawn guys.
The lawn services charge a hefty fee if you don’t remove the poo first, as they should.
Very basic mowing and edging, with no bagging of waste, no dealing with leaves, etc. is $30/week.

We pay $120/month. He comes weekly and mows, edges, and will do light trimming of bushes/plants/trees. He does front and back, and he takes the yard waste away with him.
No poop pickup, never even knew they did this. We stay outside with our dog since we have coyotes, so it is easy to pick up the poop when he does it.

We have about 3/4 acre lot. Our service mows the lawn and edges and blows off the driveway and sidewalk once every two weeks for $40/visit. (No trimming or pruning, no edging the planting beds, no weed control or fertilizer, no fall leaf pick up.)

Thanks everyone. We were thinking $50 a week so at least we are in the ballpark. Will probably add more for poop pick up. Ik generally lawn services don’t provide poop pick up but this will be a college kid.

We have neighborhood girls that have a mowing business in the summer. I think they charge $20 and $30 for mowing with weeding/edging. We used them when we were on vacation, but I love to mow, so my daughters or I mow the rest of the time. We don't have large yards in our neighborhood.

We have two very small patches of lawn. The front is probably 10’ x 20 feet and the back is 2-3 times larger. I pay $60/month for weekly lawn trim/edging service. I pick up the poop but if I miss some they just go right over it. They’re here about 10 minutes each time. In the fall they keep all my leaves in control. They also haul away any of my large trimmings that I can’t fit in my yard debris container. I’m in a smaller rural community south of Portland.
