Hello all,
After 10 years mowing and trimming 3 steep acres with my subcompact tractor and trimmer, I've decided to hire a landscaper and sell the tractor to cover the cost for a while. I'm 47 and have been spending 6-8 hours a week cutting grass on top of a salary IT job. If you are not aware most IT jobs require spending at least an hour a week doing continuing education on "your own time" to stay current in your field.
I'm hoping to invest the time saved with my two young kids who have been missing out because my Wife and I are always mowing or so it seems.
Anyone want to discuss owning/operating your own subcompact tractor, push mower, trimmer, backpack blower and other items against hiring it out?
