How to Charge for Fall lawn clean-up -When you don't have the right equipment

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The video introduces the challenge of a 'late fall cleanup' primarily involving pine needles, highlighting the lack of ideal specialized equipment. The operator explains that while they use a Toro Easy Vac attachment on their 61-inch zero-turn lawnmower, it has 'mixed results' particularly with dry pine needles, which tend to be blown out rather than sucked in. The overall message is about adapting and overcoming equipment limitations in a small business context.

Goal: Understand the job requirements and identify existing equipment's capabilities and shortcomings.

Tools and materials

  • Pine Needles N/A — The primary debris to be cleaned up
  • Toro Easy Vac Attachment Toro — Collecting leaves and pine needles
  • Toro Z-Master Zero-Turn Lawnmower Toro — Cutting grass and vacuuming leaves with the Easy Vac attachment

what you call a late late fall cleanup this time last year we attended to the snow on the ground make sure you look for our video on the tour Oh easy back attachment we use this on our 61 inch zero turn lawn mower with mixed results I want you to have that information before you go out and buy one now we don't have all the equipment we need to perform every function of our business and that's what today's video is about we're gonna show you how we adapt and overcome because I know a lot of you guys and a lot of you guys out there you're gonna have to do the exact same things within your own companies you're gonna have a job that you're hired to do but you don't have the right tools and your profit and your losses are gonna depend on how to adapt and overcome and still get results this was actually a very easy job for us we were going on strictly to clean up the pine needles they were dry they should have been sucked into the easy bag attachment relatively quickly and easily but what I want you to notice is how the easy back attached when actually tends to blow the needles out side of the intake instead of taking them all in which made us go over the site a few times before we were able to actually get immaculate results and even then we had to use a rake and detach the area to get it to the point
