If you own a business, does it make sense to outsource your lawn maintenance or invest in equipment and labor yourself? This is no different from other expenses in your business and depends primarily on your needs, budget and usage.
Let’s go over the cost differences and and more in our comparison of hiring commercial mowing services vs. buying a good commercial mower.
The Case for Commercial Mowing Service
First, let’s take a look at the argument for hiring a commercial moving company to handle your landscaping and yard work. This is going to provide several advantages, such as:
- Expertise and convenience: these teams are equipped with the knowledge, tools and experience needed to handle a diverse range of services.
- Cost and flexibility: your budget is more predictable when you hire a commercial moving service, as you don’t have to worry about equipment breaking down and needing repairs or a significant upfront equipment investment.
- Time savings: last and most obviously, commercial mowing services free up your business’ time and resources to dedicate them to other areas, increasing your productivity and profitability.
The Argument for Buying a Commercial Mower
Next, the case for buying a commercial lawn mower yourself and handling all lawn-mowing duties (whether yourself or via an employee). Here are some of the advantages of this route:
- Long-term investment: a new mower is a significant investment at first, but pays off over time, especially without the added costs of service contracts.
- Control/customization: with a mower you own, you have control over its maintenance, operation and any customizations/added features. This lets you adjust the mower to fit the unique needs of your commercial property’s lawn.
- Higher reward potential: the longer you own a mower, the more it will pay off. This is especially true if you’re avoiding ongoing service costs and own a large or multiple properties that you need to maintain.
