What’s included with your lawn mowing service?
A standard lawn mowing service involves cutting the grass to between 5-10 cms (2”- 4”), normally using a petrol lawnmower. Lawn mowing contractors will usually bring their own equipment, plus bags to take the rubbish away. If you have a large garden or acreage, a ride on mower might be required, so make sure you specify the size of the area in your post.
But it doesn’t have to end there. Many lawn mowing service providers offer other inclusions along with the mowing, like...
Edging and whipper snipping
Lawn mowing professionals will have a whipper snipper (and other tools) to give your lawn sharp edges and stop your grass from growing onto the footpath or curbs. They’ll also clean around garden beds, trees, and features for a clean, professional finish.
Rubbish removal
Your gardener may use a leaf blower or broom to remove cut grass from the pathways and edges to leave a clear surface. They’ll also take away any lawn clippings, twigs, and any debris that was on the grass before cutting. If you prefer, you can ask that they leave the grass clippings for you to use as mulch or compost.
Lawn mowing does not usually include removing hard rubbish and waste from your grass. If you want your gardener to clear the area before cutting, make sure you specify this so they can include it in their quote.
Fertilising
Keeping your lawns lush and green requires regular feeding and should be part of your garden maintenance. Knowing which fertilisers to apply and when can make the difference between golf-club enviable green and corn flakes crunchy lawns. Strong, healthy lawns need less watering and are more weed resistant.
Weed killing
Keeping weeds out of your lawns will make them a more welcoming place to play, rest, and relax without worrying about prickles and spikes. Regular trimming, manual weed removal, and organic or chemical weed kill will keep your lawns looking a lot healthier, too. You might also add on weeding for your garden beds so your whole garden can look tidy.
Leaf blowing
Leaves on your grass and driveway not only look messy but can create a hazard if they get wet and slippery. Your gardener can provide leaf blowing services and a garden tidy up, including removing the dry leaves.
Aerating
Soil can get compacted over time, so regular aerating is a good idea if you want to keep it healthy. To aerating your lawn, your gardener will use a machine to make small holes in the ground at regular intervals. This allows for better drainage and allows air, water, and nutrients to reach the roots of the grass.
Seeding
If your lawn has bare patches or is still getting established, you can add garden seeding to your lawn mowing service. Professional gardeners have the tools, equipment, and know-how to freshly seed your lawn and get it growing in no time.

Coburg VIC, Australia
9th Sep 2025
Looking for someone to help with our yard late today as the rest of the week looks like rain. Our front and back lawns are a combo of grass and weeds, front yard is a strip of grass and back is a small yard. They’re overgrown at the moment. I’m looking for someone to get them down to regular length, then properly fork out the weeds and their roots. The verge (nice grass) could do with a trim, any grass sticking out from under the front fence to the footpath needs to be trimmed. We have a mower and a We’ve got a dog, my son has gotten rid of all the dog poop that he can but there might be some remnants so you have to be alright with that to apply for this task. BYO equipment. I can look at offers at 1:50pm, then at 3pm, I’ll get back to you as fast as possible.

Just need the back lawns mowed - small area
Mike is an exceptional gardener. He went above and beyond, even pulled out the weeds in my potted plants. I booked mike to mow the backyard; mike did not only mow the backyard he mowed the front and even the nature strip. I am beyond pleased with the time, effort, and punctuality of his work. He was friendly, ready to get the job done and even though he'd already done many jobs today and it was late in the day he still went beyond expectation
