How Much Does Lawn Care Cost in Gresham, Oregon? (2026 Pricing Guide)

How Much Does Lawn Care Cost in Gresham, Oregon? (2026 Pricing Guide)

Most lawn care companies make you fill out a form and wait three days to find out what they charge. We’ve never understood that. If you’re trying to figure out whether you can afford to hire someone, you should be able to get a real answer in two minutes.

So here it is.

In Gresham, lawn care runs anywhere from about $52 per visit for basic weekly mowing up to $1,200 or more per month for full service on larger or more complex properties. Most of our full service customers land right around $350 a month. That’s the honest middle.

That’s the short answer. The longer answer depends on a few things.

What actually affects the price

Three things move the number around more than anything else:

Lot size. A standard Gresham residential lot is going to cost a lot less than a half-acre property out toward Sandy with extensive beds and shrubs. Bigger property, more work, bigger price.

Frequency. Weekly service in the growing season costs more per month than every-other-week, but weekly is what most healthy lawns actually need from April through October. Cutting too infrequently stresses the grass and you end up paying more later when weeds and bare patches show up.

Scope. Are we just mowing? Or are we also weeding the beds, fertilizing, controlling moss, pruning shrubs, hauling leaves and debris, handling perennial care? Each layer adds to the price but it also adds to what your yard actually looks like.

A bare-minimum mow on a small lawn is one thing. A property getting the full treatment is a completely different yard, and the price reflects that.

Our pricing, plain and simple

We run two service levels. That’s it. No gimmick tiers, no upsell ladders.

Basic Lawn Care — starts at $52 per visit

This is mowing service. What’s included:

  • Weekly lawn mowing — same day every week
  • Weekly blowing of sidewalks, patios, and driveways
  • Bi-weekly edging
  • Bagging and removal of all clippings

That’s the full list. No bed work, no fertilizer, no moss control, no shrub pruning. Good fit for someone who handles the rest of their yard themselves and just doesn’t want to deal with the mowing.

Most basic customers in Gresham land between $52 and $80 a visit depending on lot size.

Full Service Care — starts at $250 a month (or $200/mo for properties without a lawn)

This is what most of our maintenance customers are on. It includes everything we do, all year:

  • Weekly lawn mowing on a set day
  • Weekly blowing of sidewalks, patios, and driveways
  • Bi-weekly edging
  • Bagging and removal of all clippings
  • Weed control in beds
  • Weed control in lawns
  • Fertilizer applications
  • Moss control applications
  • Leaf and debris removal year-round
  • Seasonal pruning on all shrubs and hedges
  • Proactive perennial and bulb care
  • Priority scheduling when you need extra work
  • Access to Hillside Financing for one-time projects

You stop thinking about your yard. We show up, it gets done, it looks good.

Most full service customers land around $350 a month. Smaller properties can come in closer to $250. Larger properties with more beds, shrubs, and complexity can run into the $700s, $900s, or higher — we have some that run over $1,200 a month on bigger or more demanding lots.

The number depends on the property. We’ll come walk it, write a real estimate, and you’ll know exactly what it costs before you sign anything.

What’s not included in Full Service

Three things to know upfront, because companies that don’t tell you this leave you frustrated later:

  • Garden boxes with fruit or vegetables aren’t included (we’ll mow around them but we don’t manage the produce side).
  • Storm debris isn’t part of regular service — if a wind event drops branches across your yard, that’s a separate call.
  • Tree trimming isn’t included. Anything you can reach from the ground with normal pruning tools is fine; actual tree work is a different trade.

Full Service runs on a 12-month agreement, signed after an estimator walks the property. That keeps pricing predictable on both ends.

What makes Hillside different

A few things worth knowing about how we work:

Battery-powered equipment, fully fleet-wide. We invested over $90,000 in commercial battery equipment because it’s quieter, cleaner, and the right call for Portland. Starting January 1st, 2026, gas leaf blowers are banned inside Portland city limits — and we’ve already been operating that way for over a year. Quieter mornings, no exhaust on your patio, and full compliance everywhere we work.

Real estimates from real walk-throughs. We come out, walk the property, and write you actual pricing based on what’s there. Not a guess over the phone, not a copy-paste rate sheet. The number you get is the number you’ll pay.

Communication that doesn’t disappear. Our standard is a 2-hour response during business hours, or we credit your invoice. That’s not a marketing line — it’s how the team is held accountable internally. All of our crews are easy to talk to, so always feel free to come out and chat when they’re on your property.

Same crew, same day, rain or shine. You’ll see the same faces every week. Your crew learns your property, your preferences, your gate code. That continuity matters — it’s why our retention numbers look the way they do.

No billing until you’re 100% satisfied. We don’t invoice until you’re happy with the work. If something isn’t right, we’re back within 48 hours to fix it.

Getting an actual quote

The numbers above are starting points. The real number for your property depends on what we see when we walk it.

If you want a real estimate, we’ll come out, look at the yard, and send you written pricing — usually within a few days of you reaching out. No pressure, no contracts until you’re ready, no follow-up calls every week.
