Before you hire: what to ask

  • Weekly or one-time, and what is included each visit?
  • Do you haul away clippings and leaves?
  • Is it insured?
  • Will you apply weed killer or other pesticides, and are you licensed to?

Offering yard & lawn? Put this in your post

  • List what you do: mowing, edging, leaves, aeration, sprinkler blowouts.
  • Give a price for a typical lot, weekly and one-time.
  • If you spray weeds, say that you hold the state license.
The rule in Utah. Applying pesticides, including weed killers, for hire in Utah requires a Commercial Pesticide Applicator License from the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food, and the applicator must work for a licensed pesticide business. Mowing and cleanup need no such license. Source: Utah Department of Agriculture and Food: Commercial Pesticide Applicator License.

What to know in Utah Valley

  • Cut Kentucky bluegrass at about three inches in summer; scalping it in July is the most common lawn mistake here.
  • Routine mowing needs no contractor license, but sprinkler systems, retaining walls and hardscaping fall under DOPL's S330 landscape classification.
  • Fall is the best time to aerate Utah Valley's clay soils.
