Standard service typically includes mowing to the requested height, edging along sidewalks and driveways, trimming around obstacles, and blowing clippings off hard surfaces. Fertilization and weed control are add-ons.
Most use lot size as the primary driver, then adjust for terrain, obstacles (garden beds, trees), and access difficulty. Weekly service is usually priced 10–15% less per visit than biweekly.
