Mow Town is an award winning lawn care and snow removal company offering service throughout Edmonton.
We have spots open at our North and South side locations for full time Snow Removal and Lawn Care workers. The company is growing quickly and we frequently promote from within. In the summer we mow and trim lawns. In September and October, we aerate lawns, apply fertilizer and clean up leaves. In winter our lawn care team transitions to snow removal using a variety of walk-behind equipment and shovels. Then in spring we use a variety of equipment to revitalize lawns during spring cleanup. This is a labour intensive role that requires physical strength and stamina, the ability to operate walk behind and ride-on equipment safely, and most importantly: a positive attitude toward green space maintenance and the team.
Duties:
- We normally check in via WhatsApp at 6AM, and if there is snow we dispatch at 7AM.
- We remove snow from condos, businesses and homes using a variety of equipment, and we apply ice melt and rock chip
- Ensure all equipment is properly maintained and in good working condition
- Keep the shop organized and clean
- Follow safety protocols to prevent accidents or injuries
- This is not a heavy equipment operator job.
Experience:
- Previous experience in professional lawn care or snow removal is a requirement.
- You should have experience and be comfortable working with small engine machines such as snowblowers and lawn mowers
- Experience driving a pickup truck with a trailer would be helpful

Must Haves:
- Class 5 Drivers License
- No criminal record
- Reliable personal transportation to and from the shop each day
- You are physically fit, can push or pull up to 50 lbs at a time, and can also be on your feet for up to 10 hours per day
- As this is an outdoor job, please consider that working outdoors can trigger allergies and asthma.
The Work Schedule:
- In winter, we check in each morning and dispatch if it has snowed. If it doesn't snow, we still have a minimum 120 guaranteed hours available each month and plenty of opportunity to work at the shop.
- During lawn care season, we typically work Tuesday to Friday with 11 hour days, and opportunities to work on Mondays for additional hours and OT.
If you are upbeat individual that loves being outdoors and you take pride in your hard work, we encourage you to apply for this position.
