U.S. Lawns Claimed
U.S. Lawns Franchise For Sale
U.S. Lawns is the nation’s leading commercial lawncare and landscaping franchise with more than 200 locations from coast to coast. Our franchise opportunity allows you to join the highly profitable “Green Industry” that produces more than $120+ billion annually!
60% of our franchisees started with little to no experience. Our services are essential and our customers sign annual contracts which produce recurring revenue for our franchisees. By joining U.S. Lawns, you can make an impact by improving your community and improving the lives of yourself and employees.
Our company was founded in 1986 on the premise that commercial customers wanted and needed to develop a working relationship with their local landscape maintenance contractor. However, local landscape contractors did not always have the necessary resources to satisfy the demands of these customers.
That’s where the U.S. Lawns concept is the perfect fit. Our franchisees can access and use the support, resources, and professionalism of a large national corporation, while still maintaining a local owner’s knowledge of, and dedication to, the community. This unique mix helps separate us from the competition and creates and unprecedented opportunity.
No lawncare or landscaping experience is necessary. We provide world class support and training and are committed to 100% franchisee satisfaction. U.S. Lawns offers 3 different models to cater to each franchisee, we have an owner-operator model, semi-absentee model, and a conversion model for someone who already owns an existing lawncare business.
Our services are a cut above the rest, and include the following:
- Mowing, Edging & Weeding
- Lawn Renovation, Aeration & Dethatching
