Over the years, we’ve really refined how we handle overgrowth so we balance the wants and needs of customers and providers. We’re really proud of how we’ve mitigated problems for some of the craziest lawns.
This has nothing to do with that.
These are 50 of the best (worst) overgrown lawns we’ve had submitted by Pros where the customer chose the ordinary, up to 6 inches, grass height.
We’re still laughing, but we’re not sure if that’s because of the misrepresentation or coping with all the time lost on our routes that day!
