It really depends.....would you be using your John Deere rider? It also depends what the average rate is where you live. And how big on average are the properties? If a yard is 0.25 acre you don't want to have a price of $20/acre....because you would only get $5!!

Also, you might want to stop by the property you will be mowing (if it is the first time) to see how long the grass is, and adjust your price accordingly. If the grass is so tall it will take you double the time because it is like a foot high, you want to charge them extra!

I just charge a set price for each yard. It changes by the size of the yard. I dont know how much for each acre though.
