Lawn mowing on a cycle
Fortnightly or monthly mowing across the Northern Rivers. Edged, blown down, green waste taken away. One number for the lot.
Freshly mowed Northern Rivers backyard with clean edges along the garden bed and driveway — placeholder until real photos loadA regular mowing service is one of the small things that quietly changes how your house looks for the year. The lawn stays the right length, the edges stay clean, the deck stays free of cut grass.
We do fortnightly or monthly, whichever suits your block and the season. Most Northern Rivers blocks need fortnightly between October and April (the growing season) and can stretch to monthly in winter. We adjust without you having to ask — we’d rather charge less and skip a winter visit than turn up to a lawn that didn’t need it.
The mowing itself is the obvious part. The bits people forget: the edge against the driveway and the path (sharp, not gouged), the line-trimmed strip around the trees and the fence posts, and the blow-down at the end so you don’t walk grass clippings inside. We do all four every visit.
Green waste: if you’ve got a green bin and you’d like the clippings in there, we’ll bag and load them. If your bin’s full or you don’t have one, we’ll take the green waste with us — flagged at the start so it’s in the quote.
We don’t do lawn fertilising, weed-and-feed treatments, or full lawn renovation. Those are specialist tradesmen; we’ll happily refer you to someone if your lawn needs that side of things.

FAQ
Lawn Mowing questions, answered
Fortnightly or monthly — which suits us?
Fortnightly through the warm growing season (roughly October to April), monthly through winter. We adjust without you having to ask — we'd rather skip a quiet winter visit and charge less than turn up to a lawn that didn't need it. Acreage or large blocks usually want fortnightly year-round.
Do you take the clippings away?
Bagged into your green bin if you have one and there's room, or taken away if you'd prefer. We'll confirm the green-waste plan on the first visit so it's in the quote. Either way, the deck and paths get blown down before we leave — no walking grass clippings inside.
Do you do fertilising and weed treatments?
No — that's a specialist lawn-care trade with different products and a different licence. We mow, edge and blow down. If your lawn wants fertilising or weed-and-feed, we can recommend someone who does only that.
