Everything You Need to Know About Opening Your Own Landscaping Business

Roger Morph June 10, 2022 3 min read

If you’re looking for an easy yet rewarding business to open, there’s no better option than landscaping. You’ll be pleased to know that they’re one of those businesses people will always need. As a commercial landscape company, you won’t have to worry about not finding work.  However, opening your own business is no small accomplishment regardless of what it’s for. In this article, we’ll be going over everything new landscaping business owners need to know.

Limited Startup Costs

Interestingly enough, landscaping businesses typically don’t require a lot of money to start. Granted, it should be noted that you’re still going to be spending a couple thousand regardless, so it’s still an investment. However, there are two ways to go about it. The first method involves having a one-man-only type of business that only covers the basics of landscaping. 

This includes weed pulling and lawn mowing. You can easily spend as little as $3,000 to $5,000 to get off the ground. However, if you plan on hiring a full-fledged team with a small fleet at your disposal, you’re going to be spending an average of $25,000. Either way, you might not be able to afford all of this on your own. A great way to help you cover the costs is to take out a personal loan. A personal loan can be utilized to finance equipment but also to get your own personal finances in order if you need to consolidate debt, and lower monthly payments with an end in sight.

Choose What Services You Plan on Offering

Just the same as an interior designer specializes in specific niches, such as making the living room cozy or creating a spa-like bathroom, landscapers should have a specialty. While most landscaping services share the similar goal of maintaining people’s lawns and gardens, each has that one specialty that separates them from the rest. 

This includes the type of services you offer. Do you plan on prioritizing whole planting gardens? Or are you simply going to stick to the basic lawn maintenance? There’s no right or wrong answer here, so take your time when deciding on what to market.

Choose an Enticing Name

If you want to quickly grab the attention of your target audience, having a clever and enticing name for your business can help accomplish that. In fact, you’d be amazed to know that a generic name can cause many to gloss over your business. 

Obviously, you don’t want that to happen. Try to center the name around the services you’re offering or your landscaping niche. Furthermore, don’t choose a name that has a concrete service in it. If you plan on expanding your brand and having more services to market, you don’t want your name to say something such as “Jack’s Lawnmowing Service.” You should only do this if you plan on sticking with that particular niche and nothing else.

Obtain Your Licensing

Before you can get your business off the ground, you’re going to need the proper licensing. A majority of areas require businesses, including landscaping, to carry a license for verification purposes. Granted, there are a select few states that don’t require this, so be sure to check with your state’s guidelines first.
