Gardening charges

Hi folks,
Have tried to do a search for 'gardening charges' as I am sure the topic must be on here somewhere but I can't seem to find it!
Any ideas on hourly rates for gardeners these days...to cover time, petrol, tools etc etc. I do believe gardeners are hard to come by in some areas, and maybe 'pensioners' get special rates? Any advice appreciated!

 

I charge �£10-�£15 an hour.

 

I charge �£10 per hour, and that includes the use of any of my petrol equipment i use. I used to charge for the removal of debris, but not anymore. I have regular custs and they all know each other or are related. In my area, gardeners are few and far between, but the folk who haven't concreted or tarmaced their drive and like gardens are fewer per sq. mile than i'm used to. Some folk give pensioners special rates, but all my custs are pensioners.
Ask at your local garden centre,plant nursery and local newsagent, they may well know of gardeners that are reliable, helpful and reasonable.
