Profitable Lawn Maintenance Route (60 Accounts)

Business Overview:

This established lawn maintenance business has been serving customers for many years with a strong reputation and reliable service. The route includes 60 recurring accounts, primarily residential with a few commercial clients.


• Consistent annual revenue of over $100,000
• Mix of loyal residential customers and stable commercial contracts
• Efficient operations with room for expansion
• Excellent opportunity for an owner-operator or to add on to an existing landscaping company

The business offers stable recurring income, long-standing clients, and the chance to grow in a high-demand service industry.

Potential Growth

• Expansion in Pasco County: The region is experiencing a surge in residential and commercial development. Pasco is one of Florida’s fastest-growing counties, with a population growth over 15 % in recent years. 
• Many new housing subdivisions and master-planned communities are under construction, which creates a fresh demand for landscape and lawn services. 
• There are incentives and grants available for landscaping and beautification in Pasco County through its Commercial Landscaping Grant Program, which supports property enhancement in redevelopment areas. 
• Pasco County’s Office of Economic Growth actively promotes local business growth and development, which may help facilitate expansion and offer support to service businesses. 
• Because the route is already established and generating recurring revenue, a new owner can scale by adding new accounts in growing subdivisions, leveraging referrals, or expanding into adjacent service areas.

Competitive Overview
In the Pasco County area, the lawn maintenance and landscaping business market is competitive but fragmented, with many small and medium local operators. Here’s how the competitive landscape looks:

• Local operators & family-owned businesses — Many competitors are small, family-run outfits offering general services: mowing, trimming, fertilization, weed control. For example, Blade Runners Lawn Care is a 20-year operator in Pasco County, offering both residential and commercial services. 
• Regional chains / commercial landscapers — Larger companies like U.S. Lawns of Pasco County provide full commercial landscaping and grounds maintenance services. Their scale and service breadth pose a competitive threat, especially for larger accounts. 
• Full-service firms — Some firms (e.g. Floriscape) offer not just routine lawn mowing, but integrated services: landscaping, pest control, shrub care, etc. That gives them cross-sell capability that route businesses may not match immediately. 
• Online platforms / aggregated services — Platforms like LawnStarter (serving Pasco County) allow customers to order lawn care services easily. These platforms create pricing pressure and make it easier for new entrants to match service offers. 

Competitive Strengths of This Route Business

• Established base of 60 recurring accounts gives a defensible core and consistent revenue.
• Mostly residential clients—less volatile than purely commercial segments.
• Low customer acquisition cost relative to new entrants needing to build routes from scratch.
• Local reputation, existing infrastructure, trained crews.

Challenges / Competitive Risks

• Larger firms may outbid you on commercial contracts, since they can bundle services.
• New entrants using technology platforms may undercut pricing or attract customers via convenience apps.
• Small operators compete aggressively on price for residential accounts.
• Maintaining service quality and customer retention is crucial, especially in growth zones where new homes may be lured by introductory offers.
