don't gotta lie about it or anything... (i.e. you don't have to tell 'em a reason, it rarely helps anyways no matter how sad the story might be )

me and my brother used to do it almost everyday... and have a party everynight... we'd go around early in the mornings (about 7-8 to catch those who go to work and what not) look for yards that looked in bad shape, make sure there wasn't any lawn mower or anything in sight, knock on the door and ask if they'd be intrested...

from there it usually goes to either a no, or talking over the details... then later that night (bout 5-6) we'd go around again, to catch those who we missed in the mornings and find out who wanted it and who didn't...

we'd take a note book, right down the adress, and price agreed upon, then the next day go out and do the yards we got.... after a few days we had a nice schedule going, pretty much had yards everyday.... making 100-200 bucks a day...


it also highly helps to go to the 'old people' neighbor hoods (where there are alot of retiree's and such... every town has that neighborhood... lol i live in an extremely small town and even we have one) they're the ones most likely to have it done.


but you can always just go door to door prepared to do it right then.... we just prefered the whole schedule thing so we could keep a steady flow of cash coming.
