What makes moving & delivery in Peterborough different

Peterborough's hilly topography and many heritage walk-ups require careful planning for moves, especially along steep streets near downtown.

Winter deliveries often face delays due to snow and ice on Chemong Road and Highway 115 connecting Peterborough to the GTA.

Many older homes and duplexes in Peterborough lack driveways, requiring street parking permits for moving trucks downtown.

Why choose VanDeliveryApp for landscaping & yard services

A tidy yard makes a home look 50% more loved — and a 50% more attractive listing if you ever sell. VanDeliveryApp landscaping crews handle the seasonal rhythm of yard ownership: first cuts in spring, mid-season hedge work, fall leaf removal, and (in the snow belt) winter driveway clearing. Flat-rate pricing, all equipment included, recurring plans for the whole season at a 15% discount.

Flat-rate by yard size, not hourly

A 1,500 sq ft lawn is $59. A 3,500 sq ft lawn is $79. A 7,000 sq ft lawn is $119. You know the price before the crew shows up, and there is no "we ran into thicker grass" upcharge.

Equipment included, you provide nothing

Mowers, line trimmers, leaf blowers, hedge trimmers, snow blowers, salt — all included. You do not need to own anything yard-related to use the service.

Recurring plans book the season at once

Pick weekly or bi-weekly and we auto-schedule visits from May through October at a 15% discount. Skip cuts during a heatwave drought are free. Cancel anytime.

Debris hauled to municipal compost

Grass clippings, hedge debris, and leaf piles are hauled and composted as part of the service. No bagging, no dragging bags to the curb, no extra charge.

When people book landscaping & yard services

Real-world scenarios this service is built for — pick the one closest to yours when you book.

1Weekly lawn maintenance

Most popular booking: bi-weekly mow + edge + trim from May through October. Lock in the season at a 15% discount and never think about it again.

2Spring and fall cleanups

Spring: bed cleanup, edge restoration, mulch top-up. Fall: leaf removal, gutter clear (add-on), hedge cutback. Each is a 1-day visit, flat-rate by yard size.

3Pre-listing yard prep

Selling your home? A full yard reset (mow, edge, trim, mulch, weed) makes listing photos pop. Most clients see 50–100% more interest in showings after.

4Seasonal snow removal contract

Pre-paid Nov 15 – Apr 15 contract covers unlimited driveway clears for any snowfall over 5 cm. Salt included. Pricing varies by driveway size — typically $349–$649 for the season.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a basic lawn cut cost?
Flat-rate pricing based on yard size: up to 1,500 sq ft is $59, 1,500–3,500 sq ft is $79, 3,500–7,000 sq ft is $119. Larger yards are quoted individually. Recurring weekly or bi-weekly plans save 10–15%.
Do you haul away clippings and leaves?
Yes — clippings, hedge debris, and leaf piles are hauled to municipal composting as part of the service. No extra charge.
Do you provide snow removal in winter?
Yes, November through April in most Canadian and northern US metros. Pricing: $45 per driveway clear, or pre-paid seasonal contracts from $349 covering all winter snowfalls automatically.
Can you plant things I bought from a garden centre?
Absolutely — book our "Planting" add-on. We can plant flowers, shrubs, and small trees you've already purchased, or pick them up for you (at retail cost + a small sourcing fee).
Are your landscapers insured?
Independent landscapers on the platform manage their own coverage. Many carry commercial liability and equipment insurance — look for the Liability Insured badge next to their name on the quote screen so you can choose accordingly.
How do recurring lawn plans work?
Pick weekly or bi-weekly. We auto-schedule visits for the whole season, lock in your price, and skip cuts only when the weather makes it pointless (heatwave drought, etc.). Cancel anytime — no contract.
What is included in a seasonal snow contract?
Unlimited driveway clears for any snowfall over 5 cm during the contract window (typically Nov 15 – Apr 15). De-icing salt is included. Walkways add a small extra.
What time of day will the crew show up?
Recurring weekly/bi-weekly bookings are assigned to a fixed day-of-week with a 2-hour arrival window (e.g., "Thursdays between 11 AM and 1 PM"). One-time bookings get next-available slot within 48 hours.
Do you handle pest control or fertilizer application?
Standard recurring mow-and-trim does not include fertilizer or pest control. Add-on options are available: spring fertilizer ($45), grub control ($85), organic weed treatment ($65). Some are season-specific — the booking screen guides you.
Can I cancel my recurring plan partway through the season?
Yes. Cancel anytime with no penalty. You will not be charged for future visits, and any pre-paid balance is refunded pro-rata to the remaining season.
