“I got the number of this company from a trailer on the way to work. I called with low expectations as we rarely have had any luck with landscapers/ yard maintenance people in the past. Finding Dave at Jim’s Mowing has been amazing. Fast service, accurate detailed quotes and a great guy to deal with. Good price, good reliable service from a nice guy. Highly recommend this company!”
“We have used Jim’s mowing for several years now. Stu, Connor and Gareth all provide outstanding service and very fair prices. This year besides cutting the grass and general care of our lawns they also helped us with some landscaping. Our gardens now look spectacular thanks to Jim’s Mowing fine work.”
“I have been using Jim’s Mowing for many years and have always been extremely happy with their service. Today my roommates and I were absolutely blown away by the AMAZING job Daniel & Brooklyn did clearing away a spectacular amount leaves from the flower beds, lawn and curb. Perfection! We highly recommend Peter and his Team.”

As Spring approaches here in Vancouver, the last thought on your mind is probably to prep your yard in early spring after that last frost. It’s still cold out, why would you want to face your unruly garden in sub 10° weather? Fortunately for you, our Jim’s Mowing Franchisees will be active and operating early enough for you to stay inside the warmth and comfort of your own home while still achieving a beautiful look for your home yard.
But why do I need a spring cleanup for my yard in Vancouver?
Well, aside from the elation that a beautiful garden, lush green lawn, and manicured trees can bring you, a proper spring cleanup will help clear winter debris and clutter that might have built up, as well as create a healthy environment that is optimal to promote a robust ecosystem for your yard. Here in Vancouver, the winter can bring with it a ton of debris that will need to be cleared up to give your garden a healthy start to the season.
So what should you focus on?
Here is a general guide for what to look for in your spring cleanups.
Grass in a spring cleanup
Perennials
In Vancouver, perennial hedges are bountiful! Perennials are plants that live more than two years. This means we’re talking about your trees, shrubs, and other large plants in your garden. So what do you need to look for during a spring cleanup of your perennials. First, you’ll want to remove any dead, dying or diseased branches. This will eliminate visual clutter, as well as enable the tree to get more light and distribute water and nutrients from the soil more easily to the live branches. Second, you’ll want to lift or remove any branches that are obstructing pathways, laneways and roadways. This will not only protect passersby from walking into branches, but it will protect you from getting a complaint from your city. You’ll mostly be looking to clear back dead debris, or in the case of smaller perennials, you will be cutting them back to reset them for new spring growth.
Spring Cleanup in Vancouver: Gardening
As with the other categories thus far, your garden will have accumulated dead debris and clutter throughout the winter, especially here in Vancouver. Be sure you don’t start a spring cleanup of your gardens before the ground has thawed, but when you do you’ll want to remove the leaves, branches, or other foliage that remains. You’ll also want to pull all of the weeds out to clear the soil fully. Flowers won’t grow without enough space so to ensure that your flowers don’t get suffocated this spring, call your local Jim and have them remove all unwanted clutter, pull the unruly weeds, and clear that needed space to give your flowers the best chance to bloom!
