Lawn Care Service Agreement
This template is not legal advice. Laws differ by state and city. Have a local attorney review it before you use it.
1. Services
The business will provide the services below at the service address.
| Service | How often | Price per visit |
|---|---|---|
2. Season
This agreement renews for the next season on the same terms unless either party gives written notice at least days before the first service date of the new season.
3. Scheduling and weather
Visits are scheduled by the business. When rain, snow or unsafe conditions prevent a visit, the business will do it on the next available day. A visit missed for weather is moved, not skipped, unless both parties agree.
4. Access, pets and property
The customer will give the crew access to the areas to be serviced on service days, keep pets inside or secured, and mark sprinkler heads, invisible fences, cables and other hidden objects. The business is not responsible for damage to unmarked hidden objects.
5. Payment
Invoices are due days after the invoice date. ☐ The customer authorizes the business to charge the card on file when each visit is completed. A late fee of $ or % may be added to balances more than days past due, where the law allows.
6. Price changes
The business will give at least days’ written notice before any price change. The customer may cancel before the new price takes effect.
7. Cancellation
Either party may end this agreement with days’ written notice. The customer pays for services completed before the end date.
8. Damage and complaints
The customer will report any damage or concern within days of the visit. The business will inspect it and, if it is responsible, repair it or pay a fair amount for it.
9. Insurance
The business carries general liability insurance and will provide a certificate on request.

Questions
Is this agreement legally binding?
A signed agreement usually is, but the rules differ by state and city. This template is a starting point, not legal advice. Have a local attorney review it before you use it.
Do I need a written agreement for weekly mowing?
Many owners mow on a handshake. A short agreement settles the questions that cause arguments later: rain days, price changes, late payments and damage.
What should I put in the blanks?
Your own terms: how many days until an invoice is due, your late fee if you charge one, and how much notice you need before a price change or cancellation.
Can customers sign it online?
Not this file. In Lawnly, a season agreement made from the customer’s quote is signed online by typing their full name, and you get a signed copy.
