  • Landscaping Work: Assist with landscaping tasks such as planting, mulching, sod installation, and general landscape improvements.
  • Equipment Operation: Safely drive and operate mowing equipment and maintenance vehicles between work areas as needed.
  • Trimming & Edging: Perform detailed trimming around obstacles such as trees, fences, flower beds, and walkways, and edge sidewalks and driveways for a clean finish.
  • Property Cleanup: Use blowers and other tools to remove grass clippings, leaves, and debris from sidewalks, driveways, and other hard surfaces.
  • Equipment Care: Perform daily checks and basic maintenance on mowing equipment, including cleaning decks, checking oil levels, and reporting repairs when needed.
  • Safety First: Follow all safety procedures to maintain a safe environment for team members, clients, and the public.
Requirements:

Qualifications & Skills

  • Physical Stamina: Ability to walk long distances, lift up to 50 lbs, and work in various weather conditions (heat, light rain, etc.).
  • Attention to Detail: A "good enough" attitude won't cut it—we look for those who notice the missed blade of grass.
  • Reliability: Our clients depend on a schedule. You need to show up on time and ready to work.
  • Experience: Prior experience with commercial landscaping equipment is a plus, but we are willing to train the right candidate with a strong work ethic.
  • Transportation: Valid driver’s license and reliable transport to the shop or job sites.

Why Work With Us?

  • Competitive Pay: Starting at $20-25 per hour (DOE).
  • The Great Outdoors: No stuffy offices or fluorescent lights.
