Lawn Care Invoice Template

A lawn care invoice documents lawn maintenance services including mowing, trimming, edging, blowing, fertilization, weed control, and seasonal cleanup for residential and commercial properties. Use NetInvoice's free lawn care template to bill clients for recurring service and one-time yard work.

Why this invoice template matters

Lawn care businesses rely on recurring customers and efficient billing for profitability. Professional invoices clearly show which services were performed each visit, help customers understand pricing tiers for different property sizes, and document seasonal services like aeration or leaf cleanup. Detailed records protect lawn care providers if clients claim services weren't performed or results weren't achieved. For commercial contracts, precise documentation of square footage serviced, frequency completed, and weather-related delays helps maintain service agreements. Good invoicing also makes it easy to identify profitable services, track customer lifetime value, and justify price increases based on property growth or added services.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does lawn care cost?
Lawn mowing costs $30-$80 per visit depending on lot size. Typical pricing: 1/4 acre $40-$60, 1/2 acre $60-$85, 1 acre $85-$150. Add $15-$25 for trimming/edging, $20-$40 for fertilizer per application, $200-$500 for aeration. Monthly packages offer 10-20% discount.
Should lawn care companies charge per visit or monthly?
Most residential lawn care uses per-visit billing for flexibility or monthly packages for recurring service. Monthly billing provides predictable income and customer retention. Commercial contracts typically use monthly or seasonal flat rates.
How do you price lawn care by property size?
Use tiered pricing by lot size: under 5,000 sq ft ($30-$40), 5,000-10,000 sq ft ($40-$60), 10,000-20,000 sq ft ($60-$90), 1 acre+ ($90-$150+). Adjust for obstacles, terrain, and services included. Measure accurately to quote fairly.
Should lawn invoices itemize mowing, trimming, and edging separately?
You can bundle basic service (mow, trim, edge, blow) as one line item or separate for transparency. Separating helps customers see value of complete service versus mowing only. Show premium services (fertilizer, mulch) separately.
