Hello all, I was thinking about doing a spring clean up special and was debating what services to offer in a package together got any idea's? i'm thinking of making the package about 89.99-99.99. I figure mow, granular fert and power rake ? but this offer is only available in the subs postage stamp yards, i'll be doing direct deliveries to this houses with a flyer.

But any idea's of what kinda package to put together would be very helpful

In our area a spring clean-up usually includes leaf removal, pick-up of small twigs, cut down any perennials/ornamental grasses left from last year, bed-edging and new mulching.
To me, you have described a spring turf renovation or start-up program. You might advertise it as getting a headstart on the greenest, lushest lawn on the block.

I also consider a Spring clean-up as getting the whole yard in shape from the toils of winter; leaf removal, pick up all debris, any edging, fert., trimming ( if applicable in your region), etc..

You might as well make the most $$$ you can while you're there.

Oh yes, sorry this will be turf only no pruning, basically i see lawn care companies offering a spring clean up and getting massive bookings, i believe they only focus on the turf. would this be worth trying do you think?

I think it's worth doing. Raking, aerating and cleaning up the lawn would probably sell. I'd be careful with the fertilizing unless it's oraganic or topdressing with compost. You're not doing anyone any favors putting down a synthethic if it's the only application they're going to have.
