A whole season of mows, booked in one save.
Forty lawns, some weekly, some every other week, and a forecast that changes every Tuesday. Redline books each customer's season as one repeating series and lets you push the day when it rains by typing a sentence.
Setting up a mowing route
Find the first mow
"Find a time for Patel's first mow next week." The chat offers times next to your other lawns in that town.
Book the season
In the calendar's Add event, pick that slot and set every week or every 2 weeks, ending on a date in late October or after a set number of mows. One save puts the whole season on the calendar.
Save it as a preset
"Weekly mow" and "Biweekly mow" with the visit length already set. The next customer takes one tap.
Rain day? Push it
"Push today's Lowell lawns to tomorrow." Redline moves those visits and leaves the rest of each series alone.
Skips and pauses
Customer away for a week? Open that visit on the calendar and delete it. Each visit in a series can be moved or removed on its own, and the rest of the season stays.
A wet Tuesday
Today you have 9 mows: 5 in Dracut and 4 in Lowell. Tomorrow already has 8 in Tewksbury. Moving all 9 makes it a 17-lawn day.
Want the Dracut ones tomorrow and the Lowell ones Thursday instead?
Done. The 5 Dracut mows are on Wednesday and the 4 Lowell mows are on Thursday. Every other visit in those series stays where it was.
Scheduling and repeating visits are on every plan, including Free.
Lawn schedules Redline can hold
| Pattern | How to set it |
|---|---|
| Weekly mow, April to October | Every week, ending on a date |
| Biweekly mow | Every 2 weeks |
| Fertilizer program, 5 rounds | Every 6 weeks, ending after 5 visits |
| Monthly hedge and edge | Every month |
| Spring and fall cleanup | Two single visits, or every 6 months |
A series holds up to 52 visits, which covers a weekly season with room to spare.
What a rain day really costs
One rained-out Tuesday doesn't just move nine lawns. It stacks them on top of Wednesday's, and by Friday you're mowing in the dark or skipping someone. On paper, that reshuffle is an evening with an eraser.
In Redline the reshuffle is a sentence, and the chat tells you when a move would pile up a day. Optimize can also look at the next 7 days and propose moves that keep each town's lawns together, which you apply one at a time or all at once. It goes by the town on each address, not a map.
Straight answers on lawn scheduling
Redline does
- Book a full season of weekly or biweekly mows in one save
- Save named presets like "Biweekly mow"
- Move or skip single visits without breaking the series
- Push a rained-out day by chat
- Group visits by town when you tighten up the week
Redline doesn't
- Order stops on a map or optimize routes by drive time
- Watch the weather and move visits for you
- Create a repeating series from the chat (it books the first visit)
- Let customers book or skip visits online
- Text customers about a rain delay
Questions contractors ask
Do I need a paid plan to schedule?
No. The calendar, repeating visits, presets and scheduling by chat are all on Free. Solo at $29 a month adds invoicing. Team at $129 adds the crew board so each mow crew sees its own day.
Can my crew see the route on their phones?
On Team and up, each crew member gets the tech app with their day's jobs in order. You can group two people as one truck for the day.
Do the suggested times work for Saturday mows?
Suggested times assume weekdays, 8 to 5. You can still book any day and time yourself, and the series keeps that day.
