Lawn mowing work in Co. Limerick
Mowing is the most repeatable work in the garden trades: from April to September the same lawns need cutting every week or two, and a compact round of them is steady income with almost no quoting. The constraint is travel — a scattered round loses in the van what it earns on the lawn.
A city county gives you the mix that is hardest to find elsewhere: enough density to fill a week without long drives, and enough variety that the work does not disappear when one type of client goes quiet. Regular domestic work forms the base, and end-of-tenancy and office contracts sit on top of it.
