Charge based on an hourly rate. We normally try to $30 per man/hr for small equipment and $45 to $50 per zero turn.

you couldn't pay me enough. if you chip a headstone, don't blow the grass off all them, and so on. it's so much liability and time consuming. go for $90 an hour.

Alright, around here I think people just bid one whole price per mow, 50$ an hour + that many hours is about right.

Dont wanna land your ztr in a freshly digged out hole.

Charge hourly. Count the time it takes to trim each tumb stone and multiply it by the number of stones there are + mowing time + clean up time.
