EXAMPLE - Yup below is an Example

Some one asks a Question

How do I do X?
(note X equals a subject why use X cause you will get lost in the Subject and miss my point.)

Someone posts a responce

You do X by doing X.

Now your responce (The Wrong way)

I hate every time some XXXXXX says XXXXXX cause I know the right answer and its XXXXX...what a bunch of XXXX holes...good lord the XXXXXX's.

(Note - Notice the message gets lost in your insults)

Now the right way

Mr XXXX the right answer is XXXX because XXXXX XXXXX XXXXXX...glad I could help.

(Note then you get your message across)

Last jab

Its better to be seen as a Moron than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Hope this helps...no malice intended in my jabs at ya....(Note Olive Branch)

Just a thought, Does your area have city recycling of clippings/limbs/brush? In my area once A week (same day as trash day) they will pick up yard waste with the regular trash. Contact your city, maybe get something started. Our city has a large center that takes yard waste at no charge (large quanities) if you haul it to em.
I personally live on a farm and compost most of if or use if for Bon Fires.

Dont remember...but I make 3 passes at abput 125 feet each and its full.

i bet its an "regular" u can check on the mower it will say on the front of it, below motor....its very visible

I never bag lawns and they always look like their bagged when i'm done. Mulching mowers have come a long way. If you have the proper equipment, you should not have any clumping issues. I use a Husqvarna ZTR and for gated backyards, I send my employee back there with the 21 incher and he never bags either. All my mowers have superior mulching capabilities. Even in spring growth.

I almost never bag either.In the early spring we have a few lawns that grow really quick even then it's easier/quicker to just make an extra pass over the longest parts. The Lawns come out looking just fine

PTL, do you have red trucks. I think I have seen you out in my neck of the woods in the south surburbs.

Mulching is the best way to go you can show up and mow the yard without stoping. All the yards that I care for are mulched and you cant even tell. I run a gravely and a honda both with mulching kits on them. The clients love the way the yards look so why change a good thing. Pulse all the clippings go back into the yard.

I live in south Louisiana and the grass here really grows fast betweenMay and October. I never bag and when it is done right you could swear I did bag. Of course with the few bi-weekly accounts I have clumping is a real problem and I make sure my customers know this ahead of time. They are usually ok with it but a couple dont want the clippings. Since I dont have bagger attachments I have my guys blow the clippings into the center where it is raked and bagged and left on the curb.....of course extra is charged for this.
