Family Owned
Second generation
If you live in Apple Valley and the yard's becoming one more thing on the list you don't have time for, give us a call. We're the affordable, hard-working chore service families have trusted for over thirty years.
Tired of Yard Work Eating Your Weekends in Apple Valley?
You shouldn't have to spend every Saturday behind a mower or chasing leaves around Cobblestone Lake. Apple Valley families call us when the yard becomes a chore they don't want to do.
The Mowing Never Ends
Apple Valley lawns grow fast from May through October, and one missed weekend turns into shaggy edges, scalped patches, and a guilty conscience every time you pull in the driveway.
Spring and Fall Crush You
Cleanup season hits hard in Dakota County. Sticks down from winter, ten bags of leaves under those mature Apple Valley trees in October, and you're already booked solid.
The Mulch and Rocks Look Rough
Faded mulch, weeds breaking through fabric, edging falling out, rocks looking dingy. You know it needs a refresh and you know you're not the one who's going to do it.
Hand the Yard Off to People Who Actually Show Up
When an Apple Valley homeowner hires AAA Lawn Service, they're getting a small, accountable crew that shows up when promised, charges a fair price, and leaves the yard looking the way you wished it looked all season.
You've been burned before. The guy who never called back. The big company that quoted you a small fortune. The teenager who showed up twice and disappeared. We get it, because the exact same thing happens in every neighborhood from Diamond Path to Pennock. We've been doing yard chores for Apple Valley families since 1992, and we've stayed in business by being the company that picks up the phone, gives you a real quote, and actually does what we said we'd do. Imagine pulling in the driveway after work and seeing your lawn already cut, your beds already mulched, and that pile of brush in the corner finally gone — that's the whole point.
Don't Let the Yard Become Another Thing You're Behind On
A yard that gets ignored doesn't stay the same — it gets worse. Apple Valley's growing season is short and brutal, and falling behind in May or October costs you more than just a Saturday.
Curb Appeal Slips Fast
Two missed mows in July and your yard is the one neighbors talk about. In an established Apple Valley neighborhood, that matters.
Cleanup Costs Pile Up
Skip a fall cleanup and you're paying for it next spring with matted grass, dead patches, and twice the work.
The Mess Owns Your Weekend
Every weekend you "have to" do the yard is a weekend you don't get back.
We Know Your Yard Isn't a Hobby — It's a Chore
We're a second-generation, family-owned business that started in 1992. We're not a luxury landscape company, and we're not the $35-a-mow guy who'll vanish in July. We're the steady, hard-working option for Apple Valley homeowners who just want it taken care of.
Most lawn companies either chase the high-end installation work or race to the bottom on price. We've spent over thirty years sitting right in the middle on purpose. We do the chores other folks don't want to do and we do them well — mowing, spring cleanups, fall cleanups, mulch refresh, rock refresh, brush removal, shrub trimming. If you've got a job around the house you keep staring at and not getting to, that's exactly what we're built for.
