They don’t. Friend of mine owns some land north of SF and was quoted $5000 to have goats come eat the grass.
I suspect his land is too small to be worth the hassle for the goat service provider so he was quoted the go away price.
- mikeg8 5y agoThat price could be perfectly reasonable depending on the lot size and vegetation density. To have dozers or mechanical fuel removal out there could easily been more money and if you can’t get fire insurance but live in the wild land urban interface, several grand a year in fuel removal is going to be par for the course.
- Swizec 5y agoYeah totally. It was ridiculously not worth it for him, but I understand why the business would rather work with clients at that price level than deal with someone who can do it by hand in a few hours and just happens to be lazy.
