Are Aerators Expensive

This manual plug aerator is the most affordable yet high-quality product on our list. Coming in at under $40, the Yard Butler is an excellent tool for those with smaller yards that don’t want to invest in an expensive motor plug aerator, but want the same effectiveness.

How much is a small aerator?

Lawn size is the biggest factor that determines the cost of lawn aeration. An average-sized lawn of 10,000 square feet costs about $129 to aerate. A much smaller lawn may cost as little as $45. If your lawn is an acre or more, it may cost over $480.

How does it cost to aerate a lawn?

A good rule of thumb is to charge for aeration, overseeding and fertilization about twice what you’d charge for aeration alone, so, if you charge $75 to aerate a lawn smaller than 5,000 square feet, you’ll charge $150 to aerate, overseed and fertilize that same lawn.
