The Numbers to Know
Franchise fee: $40k for one brand, or $60k for both Clean Air Lawn Care and Clean Air Mosquito Control.
Royalty: 8.5%, with goals that can lower the rate as your business grows.
The full picture of startup costs is laid out in our Franchise Disclosure Document, and we walk every candidate through it line by line.
Why Overhead Stays Lean
- No storefront. You serve customers at their homes, so there is no retail space to build out or maintain.
- Efficient equipment. Lawn care runs on electric, mostly solar-charged equipment, and mosquito control needs very little equipment at all.
- Systems ready to go. Branding, tools, a CRM, and marketing support are already in place, so you are not paying to build them from scratch.
See What Is Open Before You Budget
Your territory shapes your plan, so start there. We will walk you through exactly what is needed to get up and running.
Services Customers Come Back For
Lawn care and mosquito control are repeat services. Homeowners need organic lawn care through the season and mosquito and tick control regularly during the warm months, so you build long-term customer relationships instead of chasing one-time jobs.
Who Does Well as a First-Time Owner
You do not need a corporate background. Many Clean Air owners are former educators, technicians, tradespeople, or team leaders. We even have a couple of ex-baseball players.
Hands-On Experience Counts
If you have managed crews or worked directly with customers, you already understand the daily rhythm of a service business.
Training Fills the Gaps
Training and support cover marketing, sales, operations, financials, and Clean Air’s eco-friendly service methods.
Grow at Your Own Pace
Start with what you can manage and add crews or services when you are ready, with more control over your schedule.
