I ride my mower to your house.
One John Deere S100, one neighborhood, one person doing the work. If you live within riding distance of my place in Elkhart, I can put you on the route.

Pricing
Base price covers a standard quarter-acre suburban yard. Bigger lot, steep grade, lots of obstacles — I'll quote after I see it. No price changes mid-season without telling you.
One-time cut
- Full mow + string trim
- No commitment
- Pay after the cut
Good for: cleanup before listing, between regulars, or a one-off.
Weekly
- Same day each week
- Skip rainy weeks (no charge)
- String trim every visit
- Free spring kick-off cut
Best lawn health. Grass stays in mowing range — no scalping.
Bi-weekly
- Same day every other week
- String trim every visit
Works for dry months. In a wet June you'll want weekly.
What's included every visit
- Full mow with the S100 — sharp blades, kept that way
- String-trim around fences, posts, beds, trees
- Clippings mulched back into the lawn (free fertilizer, no bags)
- Gate latched on the way out, dog-gate confirmed
- Text on the way + when finished
Service area
My John Deere S100 is also my work truck. I can only reach houses within a reasonable ride from mine in Elkhart.
Best test: send me your address. If I can get there safely on side streets, I'll tell you yes — and put you on the route same week. If you're out of range, I'll say so plainly.
If you're on my street or the next street over, you're definitely in.

Questions
How do I know if I'm in your area?
Send your address. The honest answer is: if I can ride the mower to your door on safe streets, you're in. If not, I'll tell you. No guessing games.
What if it rains on my day?
I push to the next dry day. Weekly customers don't pay for skipped weeks. The catch-up cut after a skip is the normal price — no surcharge for long grass.
How tall do you cut?
~3.5 inches by default — strong-root height for Indiana grass, shades out weeds. Lower or higher on request.
Do you bag clippings?
No — I mulch them back into the lawn. Free fertilizer, no plastic bags, and honestly I can't haul them anywhere on a riding mower.
Edging along the walk?
I string-trim along edges every visit, which keeps a clean line. I don't run a separate mechanical edger — that's not on the S100.
What about landscaping?
Limited but yes — small hand work I can do without a truck. See r0ice.com/landscaping for what fits.
How do I pay?
Cash in the door, PayPal, or a Stripe link. Weekly/bi-weekly customers can pay monthly if you'd rather.
Cancel anytime?
Just text me. No fee, no contract, no "30-day notice." You pay for cuts done.
Insurance?
General liability is in progress. Ask if you need a COI before booking and I'll tell you where I am with it.
