First, you can rent a core aerator

please further explain your conceptual meaning behind your
expression of "be able to actually profit" when sharing rental
expenses with your neighbors.

I currently charge $14.00 per 1000 sq ft of turf for core aeration. If
he were to charge his neighbors by the sq footage and at a reduced rate
from what I charge, he could still make back the daily rental fee many
times over. That is with him doing the actual work, of course.

do you see the difference between
"neighbor or 2 to go in on it with you"
as compared with
"If he were to charge his neighbors".

are you from Indiana?
