I would like to start a lawn care business from the bottom. What equipment will I need? What will startup costs be? What are some unique options for advertising? Any advice is welcome.

Andrea W asked:

The exhaust on my push mower snapped off today. I got the end bit out that screws into the mower, but the actual exhaust has snapped off. Would it be safe to still mow my lawn without it?

curious asked:

a lawncare company that is losing market share refuses
to consider putting its name and number on its trucks. I
have told them that that is probably why no customers
call them on the phone as they have no way to know who
they are–am I missing something or is signage a must
for a visible small business like lawn care?

IWIU asked:

For just a small lawn, do you think a reel mower is ok, or will they get rusted up and hard to push after a while.

What do you think, reel, electric, gas.

I need to buy one, but it’s just a small lawn about 20 feet by 15 feet.

do the lights on your riding lawn mower work when the engine is not runing?

or do the lights only come on when the mower engine is runing?
