Lawn Mowing

A MowSnowPro is a local independent contractor that has passed our application/training program and committed to providing quality service on the MowSnowPros platform. They may be a neighbour looking to make a bit of extra money, a new entrepreneur starting their own landscaping company, or an established landscaping company completing extra jobs on their route.

Yes! Our platform is organized so that we can always accept your request, and usually have a turnaround time within 24 hours (and often much quicker).

Our MowSnowPros pick their own schedules so once your job is live it will be made available to hundreds of service providers in your area. You can request right from the app for service now, or book recurring lawn mowing service for an upcoming vacation or the season.

Lawn care services can be booked directly through the MowSnowPros mobile or web app.

You can review lawn mowing pricing and book work for immediate completion, or a set period, right from the app.

We encourage you to use our mobile or web app to book service and reach out to us via email if you require assistance for the fastest response. As an app-based business, work can be booked directly from the app itself without waiting for a call or quote.

Yes, we offer monthly lawn mowing services.

However, we’re different from a traditional landscaping company as we’re contract-free and charge a per-time rate. This way, you’re only charged for the work that’s actually done, rather than paying a monthly fee even if your lawn isn’t growing anymore and needs mowing less frequently.

Our data over the last 9 years shows that on average, paying per-time for lawn mowing is less expensive than paying a monthly rate, due to the flexibility it provides.

Yes, we offer all of our yard services on a one-time basis. Lawn mowing can also be booked for a set period of your choosing (for vacation coverage or other). For lawn mowing, you can choose the mow frequency and we’ll dispatch service on the day you set.

There is no need to be home, as long as there is access to your yard. Ensure gates are unlocked and you’ve included all relevant job details in your request.

You will receive a push notification through the app, or email/SMS notification (if activated), once your job has been accepted by a MowSnowPro. Your app will tell you the window your MowSnowPro has to arrive onsite, and you will receive before/after photos of the work and any add-ons, in real-time. Payment is processed through the app after you rate the job, or 12 hours after the job is done if unrated.

We provide lawn mowing services in Calgary & surrounding area, Edmonton & surrounding area, Red Deer, Lethbridge, Saskatoon, Regina, Winnipeg and Ottawa.

To book service on-demand, use the “Lawn Mowing (On-demand & Bi-weekly)” job type. When you submit a service request in the MowSnowPros mobile app or web app, the job becomes available to our network of MowSnowPro service providers. When the request is accepted, you will receive updates and job photos throughout the process and have the option to rate the service when complete.

Everything is completed online through our mobile app or web app. There is no need to talk to anyone on the phone or in person!

To book recurring service, use the “Lawn Mowing (On-demand & Bi-weekly)” job type if you require service every 10-21 days, or “Lawn Mowing (Weekly)” if you require service every 4-9 days.When you submit a recurring service request in the MowSnowPros mobile app or web app, you will specify the start and end date. Based on the cadence (service frequency) you set, we will dispatch service and one of our MowSnowPro independent contractors will complete the job.

You will receive updates each time something happens related to your job. Before and after photos can be viewed in the MowSnowPros mobile app or web app. You are only charged each time service is completed.

If you’ve submitted a job request and it has not yet been picked up by a MowSnowPro, there is no fee to cancel. After the job is picked up by the MowSnowPro, we charge a $12.50 cancellation fee to compensate them for their time/gas going to your property. This fee is also charged if they arrive at your property and find that the job has already been completed.

As we’re contract-free and on-demand, there is no long term commitment or monthly contracts, and therefore you’re able to cancel a recurring service at any time, without penalty.

If you feel that you were charged a cancellation fee in error, please reach out to us.

Yes! We pride ourselves on being the most flexible and customizable solution for your lawn mowing needs.

You can select your property size, current lawn length, the length you’d like your lawn cut to, if you need trimming and what you’d like done with the grass clippings. Based on these inputs our algorithm will provide you with a suggested bid price. You’re also able to include photos and comments to further clarify or customize your request.

If there’s something additional related to your lawn service that falls outside the app selections, you can always increase your bid price to compensate for this.

Yes! This is one of the top use cases for our customers. Whether you have a vacant property that hasn’t been serviced regularly, or your grass growth just got out of control, we can help!

In the app, select your lawn height as “Long (6-12 inches)” or “Overgrown (12+ inches)” and you will see suggested pricing. Since we have to make multiple passes with the lawn mower to get it to a manageable height, and due to the wear it can have on equipment, pricing is higher for this service type.

We use the three S’s to provide you with customized pricing: size, service and scope. Pricing starts at $30.00 per lawn mow. We encourage you to go through our mobile or web app to easily customize your job request and see exact pricing based on your specific requirements.

We offer per-time pricing, rather than a monthly rate. This way you’re only paying for the service that’s actually required. Over our last 9 years in business we’ve found per-time pricing is significantly less expensive and more flexible for our customers.

On-demand Lawn Mowing: Set your own price

Recurring Lawn Mowing: Pay per service

Bid pricing gives you more flexibility and control over your lawn mowing service. Since every property is unique, our algorithm will tell you the recommended price after entering your property attributes and service selections.

Use the recommended bid price for service within 24 hours, and often much quicker (within 5-6 hours). Bid more for faster service or if the work is harder than usual. Bid less if you don’t mind waiting for service or if the work is easier than usual.

Payment is processed automatically after work is completed using a valid credit card on file. We use a third-party payment processor (one of the largest in the world) to hold your details and ensure a secure payment process.

Yes. Your payment information is secured safely through one of the world’s largest third-party payment providers, Stripe. Your full payment information is never displayed or available to anyone. You can read more on Stripes best-in-class security standards by clicking here.

Tips are a great way to show appreciation for a job well done. When work is completed in the app, you’ll have the opportunity to rate the work, provide comment, and add a tip. Of course, we remit 100% of the tip to the MowSnowPro.

The MowSnowPros mobile app and web app allow you to specify exactly what needs to be mowed, so pay close attention to ensure what you enter reflects what you want done. Being honest about the size of yard and current grass height helps ensure the service provider is fairly compensated for the work performed.

If you have a specific request about how you want the job performed, use the comments box to type in that information. You can also upload your own photos or drawings.

Over 97% of Lawn Mowing jobs submitted through the MowSnowPros app are accepted and completed, with the vast majority within 24 hours or less of submitting the request. If your request is not being accepted, it may be that:

• Rainy weather is keeping the grass wet, which makes it very difficult to cut.

• The bid price is too low, relative to the amount of work required or what is being offered for similar jobs nearby.

• The request is too complex or deviates from a normal service.

When you bid the suggested price, our MowSnowPros almost always arrive within 24 hours of your request being submitted, and often much quicker (within 5-6 hours). For recurring service, we guarantee the job will be completed within 24 hours of dispatch.

Response times for lawn mowing can be quicker if you bid higher, or may take longer if you bid lower.

Once your job is accepted, a MowSnowPro has a 4 hour window to arrive at your property and start the job.

At MowSnowPros, we always want you to be satisfied with the service provided. There are a few features in app to let us know something isn’t quite right with your completed lawn mow service. This includes ratings, reviews, and disputing a job. Each of these alert our team and we will reach out to you via the email connected to your account. Alternatively, you can email us at [email protected] and let us know.

We monitor all ratings and if we see there was an issue, we’ll always do our best to make it right.

Please review our Service Guarantee for more information.

Our MowSnowPros bring their own equipment and will use whatever it takes to get the job done properly. As they have access to your job details beforehand, they will only pickup your job if they have the correct equipment to get it completed.

If you are setup for recurring lawn mowing and it’s raining heavily on your service day, we will postpone service until the next dry day. If the rain is passing or not soaking the lawn, we will proceed with service.

With on-demand service, you have full control over your request. If it is available on the app an ambitious MowSnowPro may still proceed with the request in the rain. If you do not want the lawn mowed while it is wet, you can cancel and repost the job at a later time.

It’s your choice! When booking service, you can select if you’d like the clippings left on the lawn, put directly in your green bin, or bagged in a compostable bag and left for city pickup. For an extra $6.00 per bag, we also offer debris removal.

Leave the admin work to us. Our internal team is available to assist with any questions, booking changes, or add any notes that will help your lawn mowing service run smoothly. We’ll connect with your service provider on your behalf to confirm any updates. Email us at [email protected] for the fastest response.
