Project Crew MemberMother & Son Lawn Care LLC – Worcester, MA
$24–$28/hour based on experience

Mother & Son Lawn Care LLC is hiring a Project Crew Member for the 2026 season.
This is not an entry-level laborer position. We are building a 2-person project crew, which means both people need to bring real experience, work with urgency, and contribute without constant supervision. We are looking for someone who already understands outdoor labor, can handle physically demanding work, and takes pride in doing the job right.
This crew will support a variety of outdoor services including junk removals, mulch installs, yard cleanups, garden bed work, sod installs, planting, tree work support, pet waste removal, holiday light and décor installation, power washing, and snow removal, while also assisting with maintenance-related tasks when needed.
If you need to be chased around, reminded constantly, or trained from the ground up, this is not the role. We need someone who can step in ready to work.
What You’ll Be Doing

  • Junk removals
  • Yard cleanups
  • Mulch installs
  • Garden bed work
  • Sod installs
  • Planting and light landscape installs
  • Tree work support
  • Pet waste removal
  • Holiday light and décor installation
  • Power washing
  • Snow removal
  • Seasonal property cleanup work
  • Assisting maintenance crew when needed
Requirements

  • Prior experience in landscaping, outdoor labor, junk removal, tree work, snow removal, or similar field work required
  • Valid driver’s license required

  • Clean driving record required

  • Active DOT medical card required

  • Reliable transportation to and from work
  • Ability to lift, carry, load, and perform physical labor throughout the day
  • Ability to work outdoors in heat, cold, and changing weather
  • Must be dependable, respectful, coachable, and team-oriented
  • Must be able to work efficiently as part of a 2-person crew

  • Must be able to follow direction and maintain quality standards
Pay

$24–$28/hour depending on experience, reliability, and production ability

Pay will reflect what you bring to the crew. We are willing to pay more for someone who can contribute immediately, work efficiently, and help keep jobs moving without hand-holding.
Benefits

  • Competitive pay
  • Vision insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Paid holidays during regular season
  • Earned performance-based bonus opportunities
  • Workers’ compensation insurance
  • Sick time pay
  • Telehealth benefits
  • Health discounts
  • Personal identity theft benefits
  • Financial wellness program
  • Accidental death & dismemberment insurance
  • Company-branded uniforms
  • Opportunity for raises based on performance
  • Opportunity for advancement within the company
  • Clear standards and expectations
  • Long-term opportunity for dependable, high-performing employees
Winter / Off-Season

This is a seasonal outdoor position tied to production demand. As work slows for the winter season, employees may be placed on seasonal layoff status or moved to limited on-call work depending on company workload, weather, and seasonal demand. This seasonal layoff structure helps protect employees during the off-season while preserving strong return opportunities. Dependable employees who perform well, remain responsive, and maintain a strong work ethic will be given priority consideration for winter work opportunities and return to the spring season.
Who This Role Is For

This position is for someone who:
  • Already has real field experience
  • Takes pride in hard work
  • Understands production matters
  • Can move with urgency
  • Wants to be part of a growing company
  • Can pull their weight on a small, experienced crew
  • Wants long-term opportunity, not just a temporary paycheck
Who This Role Is Not For

This position is not for someone who:
  • Has little to no real experience
  • Calls out often
  • Moves slowly
  • Needs constant reminders
  • Does careless work
  • Has a poor attitude
  • Cannot keep up physically or mentally with a fast-moving 2-person crew
