Re: how much to have lawn mowed?
my property is 100x185 but the house is directly in the middle. i am meeting with ppl this weekend!
what about shoveling? i think i have a 12 car driveway. luckily we only have 1 car and its an 8 minute walk to the train but I am not looking forward to the snow. im guessing landscappers are the ones you call to shovel?

Re: how much to have lawn mowed?
oh and do you need the lawn mowed EVERY week? Can you get by with 2x a month?

we pay $35 for 1/3 of an acre. As far as shoveling, you can hire your landscapers to do it but we have people drive around and ask to shovel lol. The pay is depending on how much snow there is.

Pretty much need it every week. If you wait 2 weeks, it'll be pretty high and look kinda sloppy. I love the way it looks right after it's mowed. The day before they come, not so much

EGO makes a battery powered snow blower as well, using the same batteries as their lawnmower and other power tools.
I have a plow blade on my truck, so I know nothing about snow blowers...  And the parts I can't plow, I have radiant heating to just melt the snow.
You definitely don't need to clear the entire driveway of snow if you don't need it. Just enough to get in and out of the house and car.

We almost never cut our grass every week. Usuaully every other week. We also don't water it, which may be a factor. Right now, it's just as green as the neighbors' grass that water their lawn.
