Definition

Seasonal Contract

A pre-agreed service arrangement covering an entire lawn care season, specifying frequency, services included, and total or per-visit pricing.

In Depth

Seasonal contracts provide predictable income for contractors and convenience for customers. They're typically priced at a slight discount versus on-demand service to incentivize commitment. Clear contracts prevent scope disputes mid-season.

Example Usage

"The contractor offered a seasonal contract for weekly mowing April through October at $55/visit — $55 × 28 visits = $1,540 total for the season."
