Default Why mowing contractors do not use mulching mowers

Simple;

1) If people pay you to mow their lawn, they expect to see something for
the $$$ and bags of grass clippings adds to their satisfaction.

2) Some people do not like the fine mulched grass that a mulching mower
leaves behind.

3) You become upgrade to a lawn maintenance consultant and charge more
because you then can add a "lawn fertilising service."


Leaving chopped up grass on your lawn is not a good idea.

Far better to compost the clippings for at least 6 months then put them on the garden.
