TruGreen

I signed up for a year of lawn care. At the end of the year my grass was a deep dark green along with the weeds. The weed population never was reduced, it was quite healthy. I get a call from a guy wanting to add my flower beds/​bushes to the care package. I told him no. He obviously came from the «Never take no» sales school and just kept being argumentative. After listening for a few minutes, I said no again. A few days later he called back. I told him no again, He began explaining how badly I needed them, again. I hung up. They sent me an invoice for another year which I did not pay as I was tired of them. Next thing I know I get a bill for a treatment. I called and reached a woman who was determined to not take no. Long story, but they automatically renewed me for another year, treated my yard without permission and now want me to pay for it. Highly deceptive trade practices. Beware and read the small print.

I clearly have a «No Soliciting» sign on my front door. TruGreen came to my door and I clearly stated I did NOT want their service and I had the sign on my door. They were very snooty and upset after I called them out on the sign on my door !! Way to go TruGreen– I’m sure you’ll get lots of jobs with a salesman like this !!!

Do not use Trugreen! I recently moved to the area and I signed up for their total lawn care service. Well, the first visit went well, but after I paid for the service for a year, they didn’t come out anymore. I called and called and all I got was a promise from the corporate office was that the local office would call me. Again, no one would return my call. This went on for three weeks, no calls or service. Finally, I cancelled my account. So, save yourself the pain, and do not call Trugreen for lawn services!

I finally terminated their service after 8 months and after my neighbor started using Scotts and their lawn looked great. On further inspection I can see that my front lawn has had a very bad Japanese Beetle (grub) problem in spite of the pesticides that Trugreen laid down. Not recommended for any services.
