If you have been wondering how much does lawn mowing cost before you call anyone, here is a straight breakdown of what you can expect to pay for three common yard sizes in the DFW area. These are not just Vista Lawn and Pest prices. We contacted a number of reputable companies in the area and these are the average prices you can expect to pay across the market. That way you have a real reference point without having to spend time calling around, filling out forms, and waiting for callbacks.
A yard around 5,000 square feet is the most common smaller lot size in DFW. Weekly mowing runs $55 per visit. Any yard under 6,000 square feet lands right in that range and that is the starting price point across the market.
At 12,000 square feet the cost to mow a lawn weekly is $95 per visit. A lot of cul-de-sac and corner lots in DFW fall into this range since they tend to have more turf than interior lots.
For a larger property around 30,000 square feet, the cost to have your yard mowed weekly runs $145 per visit. These are the acre-size lots and at that size you have a serious amount of turf to maintain.
If you prefer bi-weekly mowing, expect to pay roughly 40 to 50 percent more per visit than the weekly rate. That means a yard that costs $55 weekly would run around $77 to $83 bi-weekly, a $95 yard would land around $133 to $143, and a $145 yard would come in around $203 to $218 bi-weekly. Not every company offers bi-weekly service so it is worth asking when you call.
As far as which is right for your lawn, it depends on your grass type and the time of year. Bermuda grows fast in the summer and a lot of customers go weekly during peak season then drop to bi-weekly in the fall. The goal is always to recommend what makes sense for your lawn rather than just pushing you toward more visits.
The condition of your lawn on the first visit matters. If your yard is overgrown we may need to double cut to get it back to a healthy height. We will always let you know upfront if that is the case. After that first cut, regular maintenance is straightforward with no surprises.
