-Earn steady, year-round pay with a growing team.

-You're licensed, precise, and you take pride in a healthy lawn. This role is built for you.

1. Turn your assigned properties into healthy, green lawns by applying fertilizer and turf products at the right rates, on the right schedule.

2. Run your own route and truck: follow your daily schedule and keep the trailer organized, stocked, and ready to go.

3. Keep every application accurate and compliant: calibrate your equipment, read product labels and SDS sheets, and place warning flags correctly after each service.

4. Earn the customer's confidence by completing service receipts accurately and leaving them after every visit.

5. Handle targeted work with skill: herbicides (including Roundup) in beds and pavement cracks, pre-emergents like Snapshot, and lawn aeration.

6. Keep equipment dialed in with weekly truck and trailer inspections and routine maintenance.

7. Stay organized and accountable using LMN software for routing and documentation, and report inventory and daily updates to your supervisor.

8. Keep our clients up and running all winter: when the snow flies, you join the crew clearing commercial and residential properties. Snow response is on-call and can include nights, weekends, and holidays during storm events.

-A current Wisconsin DATCP pesticide applicator license (Turf & Ornamental, Category 3.0) is required. You should hold it when you apply, or be able to obtain it within 30 days of hire.

-Working knowledge of turf, weeds, and common lawn pests. Enough to spot problems on a property and explain the fix clearly to customers at each stop.

-Strong attention to detail and the discipline to follow application rates precisely.

-The independence to run a route efficiently with minimal oversight.

-Mechanical aptitude for equipment care and calibration.

-The ability to read and interpret product labels and safety data sheets.

-The physical ability to be on your feet and outdoors all day, lifting and handling product bags and equipment (up to 50 lbs) in all kinds of weather.

-A valid driver's license and an acceptable driving record.

-Comfort with a flexible, season-based schedule. Typical start time is around 7:00 AM.

-Competitive pay of $28–$32/hr.

-Uniforms and PPE provided.

-Snow pays more here: when you're out removing snow, you earn a higher snow wage on top of your regular pay.

-Overtime paid at time-and-a-half for hours over 40 in a week.

-Year-round work: turf season plus paid winter snow work, so your paychecks don't stop in the off-season.

-401(k) with company match, plus health, dental, life and disability insurance.

-Real room to grow. We've gone from 2 people to a team of over 100 during the snow season, and we build our leaders from within. There's no ceiling here.

-Quality equipment and modern tools: well-maintained trucks and trailers and LMN software, so you can do the job right.

-A family-oriented crew where everybody has a voice and hard work gets respected.

Be the technician customers trust with their lawn. Take ownership of your route, turn precision into results anyone can see from the curb, and build a reputation for the greenest lawns on the block.
