The reason mower shops charge more to remove the blades from your machine is that the rust, dirt, and grass build-up can sometimes make it very difficult to loosen them.

You can have your blades sharpened at almost any lawn mower service shop. You’ll know if your blade is dull if the tips of your grass are white and ragged looking, instead of clean and green. On a lawn mower, grass is cut more cleanly and you reduce your risk of grass disease caused by a dull blade. When you sharpen your mower blades, grass, brush, weeds, and saplings are cut more cleanly and require less power from your engine. Nothing will improve the performance of your DR Field and Brush Mower or lawn mower better than a freshly sharpened blade.
