A typical day

You start early, often before 7am in summer to beat the heat. Load the trailer, check fuel and blades, and drive to the first property. Then a route: mow, edge, blow, trim, check the irrigation, pull what does not belong. Lunch in the truck. Afternoons might be a planting job, a mulch delivery or a repair to a broken sprinkler zone. In the fall it is leaves and cleanups, in winter it is snow or pruning or nothing at all, depending on where you live.
