What our customers are saying
FAQs
What’s included in the Weekly Lawn Mowing Plan?
The Weekly Plan is the best way to keep your lawn clean and neat all summer long. It runs from May to September and includes a lawn maintenance visit every 7 days. When you sign up for the full season, you will receive a weekly visit for each of the 22 weeks between May 1 and Sep 30.
- Mowing – We use a professional lawn mower to perform grass cutting on all the turf areas to a standard cutting height of 2.5 to 3 inches
- Trimming – We use a string trimmer to perform trimming along all the obstacles such as trees, gardens, fences, driveways, sidewalks, etc.
- Edging – We use a blade edger to power edge along all the straight sidewalks and driveways once a month. This will maintain a sharp and crisp edge between your lawn and the driveway or the sidewalks
- Mulched Clippings – Clippings are mulched for the best lawn health. Clippings are cut into fine pieces that fall easily onto the soil surface and are rapidly broken down by soil microorganisms, which release nutrients back into the soil. All the loose clippings are blown off driveways and walkways to the lawn. If you request bagging for every visit, additional charges will apply. Unfortunately, the disposal of the waste bags is not included in our services.
What’s included in the Bi-Weekly Lawn Mowing Plan?
The Bi-Weekly Plan is a simple and economical way to maintain your grass for the summer. It also runs from May to September and includes a lawn maintenance visit every 14 days. When you sign up for the full season, you will receive a visit every other week for a total of 11 visits between May 1 and Sep 30.
- Mowing – We use a professional lawn mower to perform grass cutting on all the turf areas to a standard cutting height of 2.5 to 3 inches
- Trimming – We use a string trimmer to perform trimming along all the obstacles such as trees, gardens, fences, driveways, sidewalks, etc.
- Edging – We use a blade edger to power edge along all the straight sidewalks and driveways once a month. This will create a sharp and clean look for your front yard.
- Cleanup of Clippings – Clippings are bagged to the bag attached on the lawn mower, and then disposed of in the homeowners’ organic garbage bins. All the loose clippings are blown off driveways and walkways to the lawn. You can also choose to mulch the clippings, however, we recommend you to switch to the Weekly Lawn Mowing Plan, as the shorter grass clippings will yield better results for mulching. If you request the disposal of grass clippings, additional charges will apply.
Is vacation mowing or one-time mowing available?
No, unfortunately, Yardly does not offer a one-time or vacation lawn mowing service. However, all of our plans are month-to-month, so you can always cancel without penalty (with a 30-day notice) when your situations change.
If you are going on vacation for the summer, we recommend signing up for our seasonal lawn mowing plans. You can get a quote, pay and manage your services all online, so you can rest assured that your lawn is taken care of properly not just while you are enjoying your vacation away, but for the whole summer as well.
Are there any optional add-ons to the lawn mowing plans?
- Weed Control & Fertilization – As one of our most popular services, you can add on Weed Control & Fertilization and get full-season treatment of weed control and fertilization throughout summer with guaranteed results. The herbicide application will start in May and occur once every 4 to 6 weeks. Most common broadleaf weeds such as dandelion, thistle, and clover will die within one week, however, some pesky weeds may need a second application for it to take full effect. With our free courtesy re-visit, rest assured we will make sure you have a weed-free lawn the entire summer! Fertilization application will occur at the same time as the weed control application, to build stronger grassroots and blades, and strengthen the lawn against weed growth. During the fall, an application of winterizing fertilization is also applied, ensuring your lawn stays healthy through the winter. All products are Health Canada approved, but we recommend staying off the lawn until it is dry.
- Hand weeding Since our herbicide weed control products are not legally allowed to be applied in flower beds or rock beds, we also offer hand weeding for your pesky weeds on an hourly basis.
- Debris disposal Typically, all the yard waste is either mulched back to the lawn for the best lawn health or left in the organic garbage bin for city collection. If you would like us to remove clippings, disposal fees will apply.
How does Yardly quote my yard?
The price of each service is based on extensive market research of local market pricing. Don’t worry about having to set up an appointment for a contractor to come to your property to give you a quote, we offer quotes within seconds using satellite imaging to determine the size and configuration of the Yard.
How does payment work?
We accept all major credit card.You can choose to pay monthly or one-time payment for the whole season in a lump sum and get a one-time saving. For our Monthly Payment option, you will be billed on the first day of each month until the end of the season.
If you order in the middle of the month and wish to start the service immediately, a prorated amount will be charged immediately for the first month of the order. Regular billing will start on the first of the following month.
What if my grass is overgrown?
If your grass is over 5” long at the beginning of your service, a one-time surcharge will be applied to compensate for the additional time needed for the initial mowing and additional wear and tear on the equipment. This surcharge is billed at an hourly rate included in your quote. This surcharge will not apply after the initial visit, because we’ve got you covered from there!.
What is the fuel surcharge?
As you’re aware, fuel prices have risen dramatically since Spring 2022. Fuel makes up a significant portion of what it costs to provide you with our convenient, high-quality yard care service. We’ve done everything in our power to shield our customers from the rising fuel cost. Unfortunately, we’ve reached a position where we must implement a temporary fuel surcharge for all service visits. This fuel surcharge will appear as a separate item on your invoice, as we hope to be able to remove the surcharge in the future.
