Know what is ready
Profiles, lawn requests, quotes, private dashboard messages, payout onboarding, and receipt tools are available. Availability depends on your location and nearby providers; signing up does not guarantee a job or an available pro.
Grab-A-Mow approval of a completed background screening is required before a lawn pro or helper can be selected, accept or join a job, travel to a property, or perform work. A pending or uploaded report is not approved clearance and cannot be waived by a homeowner. Pros should contact Support before paying for a personal report to confirm it satisfies the required package. Payout setup and homeowner payment must also be confirmed before travel or paid work.
Current general liability insurance verified by Grab-A-Mow is required before a selected pro or helper can accept, receive payment, view the property address, travel to, or work on a job. Lawn-care or landscaping-services general liability can earn the insurance badge after review when it covers the booked services. Grab-A-Mow bookings are limited to lawn mowing, optional weed eating/edging, ground-level fall cleanup, routine ground-level shrub trimming, mulching, pulling weeds by hand, plus snow shoveling and snow blowing where available. Specialty, chemical, elevated, construction, painting, repair, hazardous, and other unlisted work is not allowed.
Automatic recurring schedules, instant replacement pros, and live GPS-map tracking are not available yet. Arrange and confirm each visit separately. Status messages and email updates are not continuous location tracking.
What the badges mean
✓ Background check approved by Grab-A-Mow
This check mark appears near a pro’s name or profile only after Grab-A-Mow approves a completed report linked to that pro. The completion date is shown with the mark. An accepted Checkr Basic report has no annual recheck; its scheduled review point is five calendar years after completion. An uploaded report may have a separately recorded review expiration. The report is a point-in-time snapshot, not ongoing monitoring. Later revisions, disputes, or account concerns can pause approval sooner. A submitted application, payment, uploaded report, or Stripe account does not earn the mark or unlock job access. No mark means the pro is not eligible to accept, join, travel to, or work on a job. The mark does not guarantee safety, reliability, future conduct, or work quality.
✓ Insurance verified
This separate check mark requires reviewed, current general liability insurance proof. Job eligibility still depends on the verified record covering every service booked on that job. It expires with the proof. Policy limits and exclusions still apply; the mark is not a claim decision, coverage guarantee, or Grab-A-Mow insurance policy.
Stripe payout setup
Pros enter bank, identity, and tax information securely with Stripe. Payout readiness is not a background-screening badge. Never send a Social Security number, bank credentials, or identity document by email or in a job message.
For homeowners
- Provide accurate yard details, your preferred date, and a photo if available. Mention pets, gates, hazards, and access needs.
- Compare quotes, the total price, proposed timing, and each pro’s actual badges. You may select a screened pro while insurance is pending, but do not pay or expect a visit until insurance for every booked service is verified. Every helper must meet the same requirements before accepting or joining the work.
- Confirm the visit details with your pro in your private dashboard. Keep payments attached to the Grab-A-Mow job.
- Review completion proof and raise any concern promptly. Do not approve work you have not checked.
Lending your mower is optional and only for your property. Discuss permission, condition, and safe use before the visit; review the equipment terms before agreeing. For snow work, describe steps, slopes, ice, parked vehicles, fragile surfaces, and where snow may be placed.
Request lawn care
For lawn pros
- Use your first and last name and an email you can access. Set an accurate base location, service radius, equipment, and availability.
- Complete required background screening, upload current insurance proof for the Grab-A-Mow services you perform, and secure Stripe onboarding. Never describe yourself as screened or insured unless the corresponding status is confirmed.
- Quote only work that fits your skills and route. Before accepting, confirm that verified insurance covers every booked service. Agree on the scope and arrival time, and wait for payout setup and homeowner payment before travel.
- Send an on-the-way update, document the work, and keep communication and payments in Grab-A-Mow.
A mower can throw a rock through a window, a trimmer can damage siding or irrigation, and snow removal can involve slips or damage to pavement, landscaping, or parked vehicles. Confirm that your policy covers every service you offer and review its exclusions, limits, and deductibles. A Grab-A-Mow check mark does not guarantee that an insurer will pay a particular claim.
Branded attire is optional. Present yourself professionally. Do not bring an unapproved helper or enter a home as part of an outdoor property-care visit. Do not apply sprays or chemicals, perform elevated work, or accept specialty, construction, painting, or repair work through Grab-A-Mow.

Weather, cancellations, or a problem
Stop if conditions are unsafe. Message the other person promptly and contact Grab-A-Mow about a cancellation, missed visit, access problem, damage, or proposed rain date. A message alone does not change a booking or issue a refund; obtain confirmation.
Include your job reference, a clear description, and relevant photos. Refunds, disputes, replacement arrangements, and insurance claims require review; no automatic outcome is promised. This is not an emergency service. For immediate danger, contact emergency services.
