Additional Charges/ Fees

Additional fees are in addition to our hourly rate. We don't like to have to add extra on, but there are circumstances that we have encountered that have warranted a need for these. These fees only apply to certain situations, and we will discuss these with you. ​

Mileage

• $0.95 per mile one way if over 15 miles from home base. 

• We based this off the NYS mileage reimbursement rate for 2025 ($0.70) and added on a little for using a truck and hauling a loaded trailer.
• This will vary if there are multiple accounts in an area. It isn't fair to charge each account the total mileage, or charge just the first stop with the large travel amount. It gets spread evenly.

NYS Sales Tax

• NYS Sales Tax will be added to the total invoice. NYS Department of Taxation and Finance Publication 862 (PDF) details this. If you are tax exempt, we will need a copy of your Form ST 119.1.
• Washington and Warren County 7%, Essex County 8%
• Subject to change

Processing Fees

• Various forms of payments charge additional fees. We are looking for ways to keep this to a minimum. These fees are subject to change. These fees are shown on invoices.

High Trimmer Use

• $20 per hour extra. We are a mowing service, and while string trimming is part of the job, some properties just have more than others. We are talking about properties with areas that mowers cannot get to (think steep hills, soft soils, wet spots). Typically, if we spend more time trimming than mowing, this fee will be added in. 

Overgrowth

• 6+" vegetation overgrowth: $30 per hour extra. This covers extra wear and tear to our equipment received from the added workload and due to having to put other customers on hold. When grass gets over a certain length, we have to slow down and go over everything at least twice to keep things to our standard. 
• 12+" vegetation overgrowth: $60 per hour extra. This covers the 6+" overgrowth, and for the same reasons. 

Payment Methods

Payments must be received prior to scheduling service.
