Lawn care business licensing


Q: I mow rental properties for my grandfather, and now his shop's insurance requires me to carry insurance. Do I need a license just to mow one yard as a sole proprietor?

3. Assumed name certificate if you use a business name

4. Pesticide applicator license only if you spray weeds or pests for pay
