You bring up a really good point. Lots of folks say they just charge enough to cover fuel and make a little for their time. Then, bang, a breakdown and they wind up losing everything they made all year. You have to charge enough per hour or per acre to cover repairs. The only thing I charge for beyond my hourly rate is if I get stuck in a hole or wet spot they the owner does not note before I start. Then they have to pay the tow bill. Rates: 15' batwing $85.00 per hour (if mowed annually) $100 per hour if not. 8' straight deck $60.00 per hour Everything on a four hour minimum which includes 1 way travel time (if less than 8 hours on the job)
