Neighborly Advice.....Little help please.
Just curious what is the socially acceptable time to mow your lawn on a weekend morning?

We used to have an unwritten law in the neighborhood of no
mowing until after 10 am on Saturdays and after 1 PM on Sundays.
Long gone.

Eight O'clock! Most towns have a noise ordinance between 11pm and 7am!
If your neighbor is an ass-hat......fire that sucker up at 6:55am!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I start @ 6:00 am if I want.
Sometimes I'm mowing at night after dark.
I have no abutting neighbors.
Wrentham has a 1 mile acre minimum 1/2 mile radius of the town center, 2 acre min outside that.

Just judge when you start seeing the neighbors moving about and you'll be able to gauge it.....I usually wait until 9....

When I worked night, and that was for twenty-five years I felt the same way about when people did outside work. Grin and bear it thats all I could do. Finally starting wearing ear plugs to bed and that works great.
Commercials guys can start work at 7 a.m.
My neighbor across the street runs a garage and gets home late. He is the only guy I know thats actually needs the headlights on his mower.
I will say this, my neighbor next door wont mow if we are outside on the deck and neither will I. Couldn't have nicer people in the neighborhood.

I would be fine with anytime but I am always up before 6:00 so I was thinking any time after 8:00 would be fine but I asked around and the consenus I got was 10:00 on the weekends. But what do we know, we are fishermen who sometimes fish at night and sleep by day. We are probably not the best group to ask.

My main constraint in start time is not the neighbors but family members sleeping in......

I don't like to mow the lawn when it is wet, so I would wait until the dew has dried, typically after 9:00 or even 10:00 AM.

I would say 0800 & you still haven't told us what time your neighbor started.
Not to get off topic but my neighbor across the street starts his snowblower @ 0500  I'll be shoveling and look over like "really"?So I'll wait till at least 0530 then start mine and if anyone ask's,I'll say he started it!

In my neighborhood its 8AM. Almost like the alarm going off , right at 8Am you can hear about a half dozen starting up almost every morning ,weekend or weekday doesn't matter. Even the pro lanscapers wait til 8 in my neighborhood.
