Yard work and lawn care by local taskers

Canadian yards run on a short season. Spring cleanup after the snow melts, mowing through summer and leaf raking in October all land in a few busy months. Post your yard job on Taskeeu and local taskers can bid.

Describe the size of the lawn or garden, add photos, and say whether yard waste bags are needed for your city's collection.

Frequently asked questions

When is fall cleanup busiest?

Usually late October into November, before snow falls. Post early in the season.

Do taskers bring a mower?

Some do. Say whether you have equipment so bids reflect it.

Can they take the leaves away?

Agree it upfront. Many cities collect paper yard waste bags on set days.

Can they clean eavestroughs?

Agree height limits in chat. For two-storey roofs, consider a dedicated professional.

Is weekly mowing possible?

Each visit is a separate task, but you can agree the next date with the same tasker.
