Our yards are part of our homes and deserve good care. It is entirely possible to maintain a healthy, beautiful yard without the noise and toxic emissions from gas-powered leaf blowers or other gas-powered equipment. Avoiding those dangerous tools will improve our air quality and minimize disruptive noise – benefits that you and your neighbors will appreciate.
For those of us who maintain our own yards, we can choose quiet, gas-free yard care equipment like rakes and brooms or electric tools. For those of us who have others care for our yards, we can ask them not to use gas-powered leaf blowers, mowers, and trimmers. If your provider is not interested in providing this service, you can get the beautiful yard that you want and a quieter, healthier neighborhood by contracting from one of the providers below.
We have listed the services these contractors offer based on information they submitted, but we have no affiliation with them and realize services may change over time. Be sure to specify the methods of care you prefer when you talk to them, and let us know if any information needs to be updated.
