Push Rototillers

yardgirl · May 3, 2011

Hey I'm new here and a girl at that.
If i'm willing to include rototilling in my inexperianced yard maintenance service. What type of rototiller should I get? I have a horse trailer so I have room to haul, but I need to be able to get it in and out of trailer. I will be getting CGL insurance so i'll be covered but any tips and tricks out there would be great to get me on my way. Also, how much should I charge?

Don't get a "push" rototiller. Get one that has power to the wheels and the tiller behind (not forward). They will power themselves forward and in reverse, and you walk along (I'm sure that is what you meant

.
I'd strongly suggest you start out renting tillers to learn more about what you want in them. Figure the rent into the charge, and then how long it takes to do a planned job.
Not sure if "yard maintenance" includes installing new lawn, or if you are just tilling gardens (flowers, etc.).
