Seasonal packages for lawn and landscape crews

Sell the whole season in one signup, then let rain move the route instead of your evening.

MowSeason turns mowing, mulch and cleanups into a single agreement a homeowner accepts in February, then holds every visit behind it on a fixed cutting cycle. When a storm parks over your county on Tuesday, the week reshuffles itself and the customers hear about it before you do.

  • 1,180 season agreements signed in 2025
  • Routes running in 14 states
  • First route loaded in one afternoon

The March scramble

You sold the same lawns last year. Every spring you have to sell them again.

Nobody in this trade gets paid for the six weeks of texting, quoting and rescheduling that happen before the first cut. That work is invisible on the invoice, and it eats the part of the year when your equipment is idle and your payroll is not.

Renewals live in your thumbs

A 140 property book means 140 text threads in March, and half of them go quiet until the grass is already ankle high. You end up cutting for people who never confirmed a price.

About 23 office hours per spring

One wet Tuesday wrecks the week

Rain pushes Tuesday onto Thursday, Thursday onto Saturday, and the crew leader finds out in the truck. Two properties get skipped, three get cut twice, and one customer calls the office annoyed.

4.5 idle crew hours per rain day

Per cut billing leaves winter flat

Cut it, bill it, repeat. That model pays fine in June and pays nothing in January, so you float payroll on a line of credit and hope the mulch deposits land early.

Roughly $9,400 of winter cash gap

Add on work never reaches the invoice

The crew pulls a dead shrub, tops off a bed, edges a walk that was not on the ticket. It gets mentioned at the shop at 5:40 pm and then it is gone.

$60 to $180 lost per property

How a season gets built

Four moves in February, and the calendar runs itself until leaf season ends.

MowSeason was written around the way an owner actually plans: package first, agreement second, route third, weather fourth. You are not managing tickets. You are selling a season and then protecting it.

  1. Build the package, not the visit

    Pick the service lines you already sell: 26 cuts on a seven day cycle, 4 cubic yards of hardwood mulch, a spring cleanup, a fall cleanup, two hedge rounds. MowSeason prices the package against your hourly target and shows the margin before you send it.

  2. Send one agreement per property

    The homeowner gets a plain page with the visit count, the window for each service and one monthly figure from April through November. They sign on a phone, choose monthly or prepay, and the card or bank account goes on file in the same step.

  3. The rotation fills the calendar

    Every signed package drops its visits onto the crew calendar at the cycle you set, seven, ten or fourteen days. Properties group by subdivision so the truck stops moving, and each crew gets a printable day sheet with gate codes and dog notes.

  4. Weather moves the route for you

    When the forecast crosses your rain threshold, MowSeason lifts the day, slides it to the next open slot inside the cycle, and texts the affected customers with the new window. Nobody loses a visit and nobody gets double cut.

What is inside

Six pieces, all of them built for grass that grows on its own schedule

No generic job board bolted onto a calendar. Each part of MowSeason exists because a lawn care owner lost money on that exact thing.

Season package builder

Assemble cuts, mulch yards, cleanups, aeration and hedge rounds into one sellable product with a single monthly figure. Save it as a template and reuse it across every quarter acre lot in the same subdivision.

Recurring visit rotation

Set a seven, ten or fourteen day cycle per property and MowSeason lays the whole year of visits down at once. Skip weeks, holiday shifts and mid season cycle changes recalculate the rest of the season instead of breaking it.

Weather shifted routing

Rain thresholds are set per crew, per county, and the route rebuilds itself the night before rather than at 6 am in the yard. Affected customers get an automatic text with the new visit window, so the office phone stays quiet.

Growth curve pacing

May grows three times faster than August, and your pricing should already know that. MowSeason tightens the cycle during the spring flush and stretches it through summer dormancy, keeping visit counts inside the number you sold.

Add on capture in the truck

The crew leader taps the extra service on the day sheet, snaps a photo of the shrub or the bed, and it lands on the next invoice with the picture attached. Owners recover work that used to evaporate on the ride back to the shop.

Renewal roll and season ledger

In January, MowSeason rebuilds last year's book with your price increase applied and queues every agreement for one review pass. The season ledger shows signed revenue, remaining visits and unbilled add ons on one screen all year.

What changes by June

The numbers operators report after one full season on the platform

Figures below are the median across 96 companies that ran a complete season, from first agreement in February through the last fall cleanup.

83%

of renewals signed by March 15

The renewal roll sends last year's book back out with the new price already applied, so the owner reviews rather than rewrites. Most of the book closes before the first mower comes off the trailer.

6.2hrs

of dispatch time back per week

Weather shifts, skip weeks and crew swaps stop being phone calls. The route rebuild runs the night before and the day sheets print themselves at 5 am.

$412

average add on revenue per property

Extra work gets captured at the property with a photo instead of remembered at the shop. Across a 140 property book that is real money that used to disappear.

19mi

less driving per crew day

Visits group by subdivision and the stop order follows the actual cycle, not the order the calls came in. Nineteen fewer miles is close to forty minutes of paid time returned to cutting.

From the yard

Owners who stopped selling the same lawns twice

Three companies, three very different climates, one shared complaint about March.

We ran 118 properties on per cut billing for eleven years and I did every renewal by text message. First February on MowSeason I sent the whole book in an afternoon and had 94 signed inside two weeks. My wife does the office and she got her evenings back, which honestly mattered more than the money.

Dale Krugman Owner, Krugman Turf and Property, Fort Wayne, Indiana

Central Texas summer is the opposite problem. Grass stops in July and customers still expect somebody in the yard, so the cycle stretching feature saved us about forty visits we would have eaten. The crews like the day sheet because the gate codes and the dog notes are right there instead of in somebody's head.

Wisconsin rain used to cost me two days every time it landed on a Tuesday. Now the route moves itself overnight and the customers get the text before I am even awake. Last season we billed $31,000 in mulch and cleanups that came off the truck photos, work that used to get forgotten by Friday.

The Cut List

Reporting from the working season

The Cut List is the magazine we publish for owners running one to eight crews. It covers route economics, turf craft, season contracts, crew labor and the state rules that decide what a licensed applicator may put on a lawn.

How to Price a Season Long Mowing and Cleanup Package

A season package is a visit count, a mowing height policy, a mulch allowance and a cleanup window, priced off crew hour cost. Here is how to build one a homeowner can compare and sign in a single visit.

Talk to us before February

Tell us what your book looks like and we will show you the season it becomes.

A demo runs about twenty five minutes and we do it with your own numbers: property count, average cut price, how many crews roll out on a Monday. By the end you will have a package built for one real customer of yours and a signed agreement you can send that afternoon if you want to.

  • We build one of your packages live, not a canned account
  • You keep whatever we set up, whether you sign or not
  • No sales sequence afterward, one follow up and that is it
  • Answers come back within one business day, usually sooner

Every request is read by a person, not a routing bot, and answered within one business day. Prefer plain email? Write to jimenezjulien42@gmail.com.
