Pricing an Indoor Plant Rental Business

Pricing Framework

No standard rates. Calculate your costs, then add profit.

Cost Components

• Plant purchase/replacement.
• Containers (if not client-owned).
• Labor: installation, maintenance visits, travel.
• Overhead: insurance, vehicle, admin, marketing.

Profit Margin

Determine acceptable profit per job or per hour. Startup may accept lower margins.

Rental vs. Sale + Maintenance

• Rental: Recurring revenue; break-even ~12 months; profit after.
• Sale + Maintenance Contract: Upfront revenue; replacement only under guarantee.

NYC Model

We sell plants + maintenance contracts with replacement guarantees. Rentals are less common here.
