If I was going to start a landscaping business would I need education or a degree in something? -

I m doing this for a project. I know you first need a business license and insurance.The business is ONLY cutting grass and packing leaves(not really landscaping), and in the winter snowplowing. Would I need to obtain a degree or could I start right of the bat in this case?

Hi Rob, No you don t need a degree, however if you want to study more about running a lawn care business there is a free online class here.http://www.gopherforum.com/index.php?pag��It s a part of the Gopher Lawn Care Business forum.http://www.gopherforum.comDepending on your area, you might not even need a business license. But you would need insurance, especially if you want to perform services for commercial properties.I hope this helps!

No, this kind of manual labor doesn t require any degrees or education. However, if you should try to branch out into tree trimming - that s a discipline that requires a degree. Arborists are very vain about that.

No need for a degree. You can start right away. You might want to work for another landscaping company so you can gain experience and the knowledge to start yourself.
