How does GreenPal Work?

Common questions about how GreenPal can help you hire the best lawn care service in Boston

How does GreenPal work, and how can it actually save me time and stress?

GreenPal is like the “Uber for lawn care.” You list your lawn, get multiple competitive quotes from local Boston lawn pros, and choose the one that fits your needs and budget. Everything—from scheduling to paying—is handled right in the app. No calls, no chasing quotes, no wondering if someone will show up. It’s built to save you hours every month.

How can GreenPal help me save money on lawn care in Boston?

Instead of calling around or paying inflated rates, GreenPal shows you competitive pricing upfront. You can compare quotes from multiple providers in neighborhoods like Brookline, Dorchester, or Cambridge. Some users report saving 20–30% compared to their previous providers. And since you only pay after each job is done, you avoid wasting money on no-shows or subpar service.

When does lawn care season typically start and end in Boston?

In Boston, the lawn care season usually starts in early April and ends by late October, depending on weather. Most homeowners need 20–26 mowings per season, with mowing typically every 7–10 days in peak months (May through September). Spring cleanup and fall leaf removal are also essential due to Boston’s dense tree coverage and seasonal transitions.

How many times a year should I mulch or trim shrubs in Boston’s climate?

Mulching: Once in early spring (April–May) and again in early fall (September) helps insulate soil and suppress weeds. Shrub trimming: Typically twice a year—late spring and mid-to-late summer—depending on plant types in your yard. GreenPal lets you request these services from providers already servicing your area, like Jamaica Plain or Somerville.

Is GreenPal only for mowing, or can I get other services too?

GreenPal connects you with pros who offer full-service lawn care, including: Mulch installation Shrub and hedge trimming Leaf removal Core aeration Yard cleanups When you list your property, just check the services you need. You’ll only receive quotes from pros who offer those exact services.

Who actually gets paid when I hire someone through GreenPal?

You pay directly through the GreenPal platform, but your payment goes straight to the vendor’s Stripe account, not to GreenPal. You’re hiring an independent lawn care provider who uses GreenPal to run their business. GreenPal simply helps you connect, schedule, and pay safely online.

Can I use GreenPal in surrounding Boston neighborhoods and suburbs too?

Yes. GreenPal works across the Greater Boston area, including Cambridge, Medford, Newton, Quincy, Brookline, Somerville, and even farther suburbs like Waltham and Malden. Just enter your zip code to see availability in your area.

What if I’ve had bad experiences with lawn care providers not showing up or doing sloppy work?

That’s one of the biggest reasons people switch to GreenPal. All work must be verified with before-and-after photos, and you don’t pay until the job is done right. Plus, you can rate each service—so the best providers rise to the top and stay accountable. Many Boston users say this gave them real peace of mind.

What’s the average cost of lawn mowing in Boston through GreenPal?

Most Boston homeowners pay between $40–$60 per mow, depending on yard size, slope, and frequency. Smaller city lots in neighborhoods like South Boston or Allston may fall at the lower end, while larger yards in Newton or Roslindale might be higher. You'll get quotes upfront, with no surprise fees.

What do I need to do to get started? Is there a contract?

Just enter your address, lawn size, and service needs—then watch quotes roll in. There are no contracts or long-term commitments. You can schedule one-time services, ongoing weekly or biweekly mowing, or just try it out once and decide later.
