We are like Uber, but for lawn mowing. Once students are hired, they get access to a job board where they can view which jobs are available on any given day, and they can take any jobs that they want to. Most of our jobs are for residential homes.

Not necessarily, but you need a way to get around to jobs within driving distance. Plus, you need a way to transport a lawn mower and trimmer. How you arrive to jobs is up to you (as long as you are on time).

We pay a flat rate per job. For lawn mowing, we usually pay between $21-$35 per lawn mowed (and more for very big lawns).

We pay through Stripe (which is similar to PayPal), and the money gets directly deposited into your bank account.

Yes you do. LocalStudent does not provide equipment. For lawn mowing, you need a lawn mower and trimmer.

No, you do not. Experience is an asset, but not a requirement.

We service the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, Barrie, Ottawa and Calgary.

Not yet! We only offer lawn mowing, leaf cleanup, and snow removal at the moment.

But we hope to soon offer tutoring, graphic design, web development and more!
