Grounds and landscaping

Trucks, trailers and mowers ready before the crew rolls out.

A landscaping crew stops when a trailer light fails a roadside check or a hitch pin goes missing. Fendrel's crew-truck checklist covers the trailer as well as the truck, and seasonal service plans keep the off-season for the big jobs.

Two landscaping crew members lift a potted shrub onto the bed of a weathered work truck already loaded with plants, a spade leaning against the tailgate.

What changes

Where grounds and landscaping fleets lose time, and what Fendrel does about it.

Trailers nobody owns

Trailers are units with their own checklists and history, so a broken light is fixed instead of passed between crews.

Seasonal swings

Date-based services can be pulled forward into winter, when trucks are idle and the shop has time.

Crews that change every spring

New drivers are invited with a phone number and see only their own truck's checklist.

Sample story: the company, people and figures are fictional demo content.

A landscaper in a sun hat and safety glasses edges the grass around a tree trunk with a string trimmer, dust and clippings caught in the afternoon light.
