Running Shur-Lawn & Landscape here in Omaha, NE, for nearly 40 years, we’ve seen how a good renewal meeting can make or break a season. When you’re looking at renewing your lawn care service — especially if you need reliable commercial lawn mowing or full-property maintenance — one big question comes up: Does the company have enough equipment and staff to handle your property the right way, all year long?
We take pride in saying yes — because we plan, hire, and maintain our crews like we maintain lawns: with care, timing, and local know-how. Just last month, we installed two new zero-turn mowers and added another mowing team to keep up with our Omaha metro area routes. Let’s talk through what to look for when you’re checking if your lawn care provider has what it takes.
How Do I Know a Lawn Company Has Enough Equipment?
When we renew a maintenance program with a homeowner, HOA, or commercial property, we look over every mower, trimmer, and spreader. We replace anything that slows us down before it becomes a problem.
Clean and updated tools. A well-kept mower cuts clean and keeps turf healthy. Dull blades tear grass and open it up to weeds and fungus.
Right tools for the right space. Big areas like parking lots and HOA fields need wide-deck mowers. Small corners or tight edges near sidewalks need light trim crews.
Seasonal gear. We don’t stop when the snow hits. Our snow removal services in Omaha use heavy plows, spreaders, and skid steers so you don’t wait days for clear lots or drives.
If a company shows up with old or mismatched equipment, it usually means slow jobs and uneven lawns.
Does the Crew Size Match the Property Size?
This one matters more than most people think. We plan our staffing by property type and time of year.
Commercial and residential properties. Our commercial lawn care clients — like office parks or HOAs — often need two or three crews for mowing, weed control, and irrigation checks. A single homeowner might only need one steady team.
Backups and cross-training. Every mowing team has trained members who can also handle fertilization or pest control if needed. That way, your plan stays on track even if someone’s out sick.
Weather-timed staffing. When heat or rain hits hard, we adjust hours to keep every area lawn covered.
We just finished hiring extra snow and ice crews for winter — because in Omaha, NE, the weather can change overnight.
What About Communication and Scheduling?
You can tell a lot about staffing by how fast a company replies.
Fast response. When you call our office about a mow or a cleanup, we answer right away or get back to you the same day.
Clear schedule. Every maintenance service, from mowing lawns to fertilization, follows a set plan — and you always know what’s next.
Uniformed crews. You’ll see our team in Shur-Lawn uniforms and logoed trucks across Omaha. It’s our way of keeping things professional and easy to recognize.
Good communication means your lawn and landscape get attention before small problems become big ones.
Do They Offer Full-Service Care Year-Round?
A well-equipped company can handle more than just mowing. Our services in Omaha include:
Fertilization and weed control. We fertilize with EPA-approved products that are safe for kids and pets.
Landscape design and planting. We help create outdoor spaces that fit your home and lifestyle.
Mulch, edging, and cleanups. Keeping your landscape tidy builds real curb appeal.
Snow removal and ice control. When winter hits, our snow removal crews keep commercial properties and parking lots safe and clear.
That mix of gear and trained staff is how we serve both residential and commercial clients across the Omaha metro area with great service and reliable results.
Why Does Renewal Time Matter So Much?
Renewal is when we double-check your whole plan — from lawn maintenance to snow removal schedules. It’s also when you can ask to expand or adjust services.
For example, we just renewed with a Bennington HOA that wanted more irrigation checks and mulch in the spring. Because we keep extra staff and equipment ready, we could add those services right away.
Renewal isn’t just a contract — it’s your chance to make sure your property gets the expert care it deserves, all year long.
