What do garden planting services include?

A tidy, well-tended, and beautiful garden can uplift the atmosphere of your home. If your yard is a mess and you don’t know where to start, you can book a skilled and experienced gardener to get the job done. While the range of skills and services vary from Tasker to Tasker, here’s what you can expect when you book a standard garden planting service on Airtasker:

 

Basic gardening tasks

Your Tasker can get on top of your garden’s health and appearance. From watering and feeding your plants to trimming large shrubs and trees, you can hire a gardener to keep your greenery in tiptop shape. They can also help remove weeds and trim hedges in your garden. 

 

Shrub and tree planting

Planting shrubs and trees can be challenging! Planting services near you can help you select prime and healthy specimens for your yard. Moreover, the gardener can plant them using proper and professional techniques. This way, you can avoid damaging your other plants, pipes, and underground wiring that may get in the way. 

 

Installation services

Are you looking to revamp your garden? Garden planting services near you may also install key decorative fixtures in your yard. Whether it’s a bird bath bench or a sculpture, you can have your Tasker safely install any fixture to enhance the look of your garden. Do note that if you intend to install a fountain, well, or anything that requires plumbing, your Tasker may have to work with an experienced plumber.

 

Yard waste removal and cleanup

If you’ve just weathered through a storm or moved into a new home, your garden might need a major cleanup. The task can be pretty overwhelming, but not to a Tasker! They can help remove branches, old fencing, broken glass, corrugated iron, or any other junk.

 

Simple landscaping

A garden planting service can help you achieve the garden of your dreams. This service can include designing and installing walkways, planting, mulching, weeding, and pruning plants for them to reach optimal health. Your Tasker can also help you select flowers and plants that will thrive in your climate and still add vibrancy to your home! What’s more, a plant repotting service near you can help transfer your plants to larger, more beautiful pots.

Regular maintenance of our office/garden plants

$100

Sydney, New South Wales

12th Nov 2025

We have 2 levels that needs attention. The plants on the Level 6 terrace include buxus, mondo grass, pencil pines, and Spartan junipers, which require regular topiary trimming.

2 people carry 16 plants up stairs to level 4. Potts Point 2:25pm

$100

Potts Point NSW 2011, Australia

9th Nov 2025

One person can manage one plant on their own. The plants are tied in a couple of places with string so they are not too unwieldy, but there's still a lot of plant to wrangle up a stairwell. A bit awkward but totally doable (because the top half is pretty bendy). The plants weigh around 8k-9kg each - each plant is in a 30cm pot. Delivery is expected for 2.25pm. you will need to take the plants from the delivery truck and carry them up stairs to the rooftop garden on level 4 in a building that does not have an elevator. I think it would take 1 person an hour and 2 people 30 min so the $100 is the total amount for the job to be split amongst yourselves.

Jules is awesome. Hard and intelligent worker. Recommend!

I am seeking advice on which of my exisiting plants are most suited to my balcony conditions, how I should care for them and if I need to change their pots (including drilling holes in the bottom).

Amanda is exceptional at what she does! I am incredibly happy with the transformation of my small balcony garden.
