Overgrown lawns, steep slopes and lots of obstacles cost more.
Prices vary a lot by area. Compare two or three quotes from local pros for the same job.

FAQ

Lawn mowing cost questions

How is lawn mowing priced?

Most lawn services price per visit by yard size and frequency. Larger properties are often priced per acre.

Is weekly mowing cheaper than every two weeks?

Per visit, weekly is often the same or slightly cheaper, because grass is shorter and faster to cut. Per season it costs more because there are more visits.
