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.

$150

Rosebery NSW, Australia

16th Sep 2026

Looking for someone to mow and tidy the lawn/grass areas around our property, including both inside and outside the outdoor gate. Please see the attached photos for the current condition. The grass and weeds are fairly overgrown in some areas, particularly around the backyard, fence line and plants, so we’re looking for a good general tidy-up rather than just a quick mow. Task includes: Mow/cut all grass areas shown in the photos Whipper snip/edge along fences, pathways, walls, gate and other areas the mower can’t reach Cut down the longer grass/weeds around the backyard and plants Blow/sweep grass clippings off the concrete/pathways afterwards Leave the area generally neat and tidy We may have a green bin available, but please take any excess green waste with you if it doesn’t fit Please bring your own mower, whipper snipper and other equipment required 🐶 Important: We have a dog. If you plan to use any weed killer, herbicide or other garden products, please let us know beforehand and use pet-friendly products wherever possible. The photos show the current condition and the areas that need doing. Please quote accordingly, including green-waste removal if required. Potential for ongoing lawn maintenance if we’re happy with the job.

Great service! Richard was punctual, easy to communicate with, and did an excellent job mowing the lawn and tidying up the edges. The yard looks fantastic. Very happy with the work and would definitely recommend!
