Angelo took the time to explain the treatment, and given the time of the year, blow the leaves from the lawn so the treatment could get to the grass and soil. Angelo focus on customer satisfaction and not just applying the prescribed treatment.

8/22/2023 Methuen Mass 01844. 15 yrs ago I used to use TruGreen, I STOPPED. I used to see there person "RUNNING with the application machine in my yard". Since then I've taken care of my lawn better than TruGreen ever did. Today 8/22/2023 I came home and noticed a TruGreen Door Tag and TruGreen Lawn Flag on my lawn. I have NOT had a Service Contract with them in over 15 years and I still dont !! They applied a Core Aeration to my yard and tore up the lawn EVERYWHERE!!! I have my home address number posted clearly on my residence. I called the number on the documentation that was left and it gets you to a National Call Center" a woman answered and I vented. I told her to notify the local Trugreen center. She said I would need to fill out documentation .. I didn't want to bother. I find it amazing you cannot call a local number and speak with the local representation.... what ever.... I never want to speak with them anyhow! Obviously the person doing the unauthorized work doesn't care about quality at all or what they are doing. Incapable and inept and and NOT capable of doing quality work... I would never use there service. There are divots all over the yard from spinning the machine and being in a rush...... stupidity at its best. I supplied only a few photos of many spots in the yard as there are about 15 spots easily.

Signed up with Trugreen at the end of 2022 after having a local company treat my lawn for years. I jumped companies due to the rising price and missed treatments. I was told that they could and would come out that week to put lime down. After several weeks of not seeing anyone I called and was told that the lime treatment was canceled. Fast forward to 2023. They came out, put lime down and started the treatment of the lawn. June rolls around and after the scheduled visit, the lawn gets burnt to a crisp! Calls. Emails. Nothing from the local office. I call to cancel and that’s when they don’t want to cancel the service. After informing them you either cancel my service or we go to court, my service is canceled. And of course they’ll have a manager reach out to me. I won’t hold my breath waiting for a knock at the door or the phone to ring. Besides, they can’t turn back the hands of time. And summer is not when you plant a lawn. A better name would be TruBurnt. It’s now October 2024. After receiving several calls from TruBurnt in the spring, asking if I’d be interested in their services I told them no. Stop calling. It’s now bordering harassment. I was told that they would put me on the “Do not call list.” Well they can’t even get that right because they call me again. And after going over the history with them, the representative tells me that I called him, which I can prove otherwise.

I’ve been with TruGreen for three years and not been satisfied with them once. As others reported, last year I had services cancelled or done to my neighbors lawn instead of mine (although eventually refunded). This year they cancelled my mid season treatment and after week later finally came back. Two days later my good grass outback got fertilizer burned. It’s turning brown by the minute. The not so great grass got even worse. My neighbors lawns who don’t use trugreen and possibly anyone else looks better than mine. I had called this morning and the lady on the phone said it’s normal. Looking at it burn up through out the day didn’t seem normal. Even after following their instructions.

This was last years post at the bottom and I am posting again this year with photos! Burnt lawn after fertilizer application! Customer service does not care nor do the sales reps! Our lawn is ruined for the season!!! STEAR clear of this company! 2022 post: TruGreen is horrible! Sales rep James set us up. Received multiple texts on 9/2 that the tech was coming. The tech went to the wrong address and then proceeded to cancel the visit. Called customer service at least 10 times, called and texted the sales rep, no response. This is unacceptable and this was our first treatment! The service is awful!!! Not a single person helped to determine when they would show up, said maybe in two weeks. Waste of time. From the other reviews, burnt lawns seem to be their gold standard!

Christopher did a conscious job of only spraying a 6-8 spray to ensure the entire lawn was covered whereas other previous technicians would apply 10 - 12 sprays and not ensure they overlapped, missing many areas. I have been considering switching services as a result of prior lack luster applications. Based on Christopher s performance I will monitor future applications and decide whether I will stay with TruGreen or not.

Booked a treatment schedule for our lawn with a call center employee who advised us that the first service would be half price at roughly $109. After the first treatment, we were billed an additional $219 which ended up being a yearly grub treatment which no one told us about. Called and canceled the service program. There is no way to interact with the local Trugreen branch and they clearly are not up front and honest about their pricing.

We have used Tru Green for some years and have been mostly happy with the service. our service tech- Chris Drouin has been nothing short of excellent. He is thorough, consistent and very helpful when we have questions. We have requested him to be the only one who provides service. The reason is not only because he has been so good but when others have come, we see that they are not doing the comp0lete job. In the past, another service tech came and hardly sprayed the trees in the back yard. he skipped others. When we called, you did send out Chris to do the service again but this caused us to lose faith in the service providers. We have cameras and could see what they did and did not do. Now, just last week, an different tech came to apply the final treatment for 2023. the man rang the bell and was polite and informed us of the service. However, he hardly sprayed anything. he didnt go into the back yard. He sprayed our storm door with this oily spray and began to roll up the hose. I went out to speak to him and tell him he had to go in the back yard. He did and and then when my husband came home, he was spraying the street tress which are mostly dead and very nearly sprayed my husband while he was on the phone with Tru Green. not sure if this is incompetence or a lack of training, this has once again called into question what Tru green is doing. If we werent home or didnt have cameras, how would we know? This removes all credibility and makes us suspicious of the what we are paying for versus the service we are getting. At nearly $87 per treatment, it makes me want to look around for other providers. Tru green did send Chris out to redo the service but we are still Not Happy

January 23, 2023

TruGreen is waste of money and more importantly will damage your lawn by sending out inexperienced techs who have no idea what they are doing. I have had this happen several times and upper management refuses to get involved to help with situations leaving it to the tech. Along the way, I have met some very knowledgeable techs (who evaluate and apply appropriate treatments) but the inexperienced ones will do more damage than the knowledgeable techs can compensate for. If you use them because of pricing think twice before you do. I keep getting calls to renew my service and I ask the sales reps to look at my lengthy call records with the company as that would clearly state my call interactions with the company and the unwillingness to deal with the damage they created by apply the incorrect chemicals for my lawns health. You have been warned.

January 23, 2023

Trugreen scheduled my service 3 times then rescheduled me 3 times not reliable.

January 23, 2023

Do not trust their phone call agents. Poor value.

January 23, 2023

I can not tell you have many problems I have had. I dont even want to get into it. Ive asked multiple times to be alerted before a service. I have dogs who use a doggie door for the back and I have to make sure they are inside for the service. Without fail they do not alert me to when they are coming and then they say that they have serviced my backyard. Which is impossible with my german shephard there. Other times I have been home and witnessed them only do the front yard to which I have had to call them to come back and do the back. They have offered me multiple refunds for other things and I have never gotten one. I have had various billing issues too. The treatments themselves were not planned out and did not help my lawn. For example putting a treatment down 3 hours before heavy rain.

January 23, 2023

I installed a new lawn last summer. I added TruGreen soon after and had the service for about a year when they came to fetilize and burnt my lawn in multiple spots (7/1). They sent a tech (7/9) to assess and take photos but no remediation or follow up was made. I called and requested the Franchisee call me back and never heard from him/her. I called a second time weeks later (8/17) to cancel the service and they offered me 20% off the service that burnt the lawn and another promised phone call to fix my lawn. Its not worth it! I cancelled it all together.

First visit in April was great. I walked the lawn tech through my property carefully explaining that my front yard needed the help - creeping charlie, crab grass etc. When we got in to the the back yard, I very clearly stated that I do not want ANYTHING being used in the back yard that will kill my clover/grass lawn. Its taken me three years to have green in my backyard that stands up to they heavy traffic of dogs/guests running around the pool. He assured me that he understood and would make a note. Fast forward to their May visit. They sprayed front and back with weed killer. Apparently my conversation with the tech in April never made it into my records. My clover is all pretty much dead/dying. Calls to them go to a central call center not the office in Andover MA that serviced my property. I have been told twice now that their supervisor will call me. And I am still waiting! I am fighting for at least a refund and cant even seem to get that. You will have a good experience until you dont and when that happens there is ZERO accountability. My suggestion, if customer service is important and you dont want to have to babysit the workers, then look elsewhere.

January 23, 2022

Absolutely the worst. I cancelled in 2019, they still kept coming in 2020. I tried cancelling in 2020, they still kept coming. They ignore requests to cancel and even after telling there people to get off my lawn they bill for refused service. Stay away from these guys.

We have used True Green a couple of years now. Last year was terrible. One employee only sprayed the front and never went to the sides or back yard. The weeds where out of control. It looked like they put weed growth down instead of weed killer

January 23, 2021

Never in my life have I had such a difficult time accomplishing something so simple. Prepaid for one year worth of treatments (8) and started noticing crab grass. Not a big deal, but I called to let them know and they said theyd send someone out for a free crab grass treatment. TWICE a lawn specialist came out and was simply going to re-fertilize my lawn a week after my last fertilizer treatment. Both times the lawn care specialist said they didnt have anything to treat weeds on their truck. Had to call the national number several times and they kept putting in for a crab grass treatment, but for some reason the local branch wants to ignore the note and just try to drop down more fertilizer and be done with it. If i wasnt home, both times they would have just re-fertilized my lawn and probably burned it. Finally I was able to get a local branch manager to call me back after contacting the national number a third time, and the manager insisted someone would be out later that day (yesterday) to take care of the crab grass. Surprise, surprise -- no one showed Since the national TruGreen center is insisting theyre putting in the right notes and my local branch (Andover, MA) is ignoring it, I guess the local branch is to blame. Dont hire TruGreen if you live in the Andover, MA. The service has been an absolute joke

Have used Trugreen for 10+ years. Full Lawn and Tree/shrub treatment. A large portion of my lawn was dead. Trugreen came out and determined that there were active Grubs. They plan on doing NOTHING until the Fall. SO my lawn looks lousy the whole Spring and Summer. Refused to give refund or timely service.

January 23, 2021

DO NOT USE!!!! Horrid experience every time. Application for mosquito & tick not affective. Would not return calls for reapplication as promised or advertised. Applied an unauthorized application of fertilizer to a 4 week old $10K sod application when all that was supposed to be done was a soil test and lawn care plan discussion. Refused to return phonecalls local and their 800 #. Police report was filed for legality purposes as directed by my attorney. Brand new lawn was the greenest and now yellowing after TruGreen fertilizer was applied. Still no call back so pursuing legal action against the company.

I hired TruGreen for full weed, fertilization control. I paid the full season in the spring of 2020. I would receive notifications that they would be at my property, and then I would get notified that they came and serviced my property. Being home, I can assure you that they NEVER came to my property. After speaking to them several times, they said they must have been treating the wrong house. Is that my problem? Also, Andover was the location of the office i contracted with. Try calling them! Impossible. Try leaving messages for them to call you back! Well you can leave messages but they will not call you. After speaking to the headquarters, and giving them my complaints, they assured me they would send someone to look at my lawn. He came, he told me it was clear nothing had been done. He said lawn needed to be thatched. I showed him the online receipt saying it was down two weeks before he was there. He said it was never done, but I needed to call Andover, MA. Well you cant. Stay away from this rip-off company.

January 23, 2020

stay as far away from this corporate #*%&$ show as possible. Everyone you talk to on the phone says something different, you get harassed with automatic appointment reminders for appointments you never set or even after you cancel. They told me I could pay installments then 3 months later I get a letter from a collection company. Thanks Truegreen! do it yourself or go with a local company. Two thumbs down!!!

After the lawn was maintained by TruGreen for all of 2018, the below picture is my lawns current condition - what looks like streaks of dormant or dead grass caused by a spreader with perhaps too much fertilizer or the wrong kind since this couldnt have been caused by my 52 mower as the streaks are too narrow. BEWARE, since I cancelled the account one week prior, they no longer warranty the service rendered. This repair is coming out of my pocket.

Technician arrived on schedule, was very courteous and seemed interested in the plants in the garden that he was treating. I did notice that some of the tender leaves on a number of the perennials appear to have been burned by the liquid fertilizer applied. I am hoping that the damage is superficial.

As A first time customer I had an appointment set over the weekend and no one showed. I called in only to get the run around and no call back.

I recommend TruGreen to keep your lawn as green as the best golf course. If your lawn doesn t look the way it should, then you need TruGreen to treat your lawn the way nature intended. TruGreen cost is reasonable and affordable. If one is not satisfied with the results, TruGreen will do everything within reason, to work with their customers at no additional cost. From a current satisfied customer. Philip Levine

I have had to call Trugreen back for weed control and they came out promptly. The technician did a thorough job and was courteous.I like the fact that you can call to have them back and they dont give you a hassle.

Off to a slow start due to rain. First service was fine and lawn looks improved. Anxious for next round.

I have no idea why all the great reviews. I signed up for the multiple application service this year which is supposed to happen automatically. There wasnt an application yet where Ive havent had to call to get on the schedule for the treatment. And this most recent one, they didnt show up at all. 2 months now and no lawn treatment at all. So much for the automated prescribed plan. Ive already done my complaining/whining to them multiple times. Clearly my business isnt important to them. Btw - When this was the Scotts service, they at least showed up.

They are aggressive in signing you up for all of their services and packages. But the actual treatments are spotty after the first application and often charge you the full amount during Summer months when they dont actually fertilize and only spot treat a few areas for weeds. Ive asked them to cover the entire yard multiple times but the guys didnt even walk around the entire house even though the service report states otherwise.

True Green Andover is terrible. They say they will be there then they dont show up. They said they did a soil sample, i asked them for the results, then I had to follow up and they said they didnt do one. I cancelled the aeration and seeding service over the phone and by text, they did it anyway and charged me. I cancelled because the yard was going to be loamed the following week, and it has been. They said they would credit half the charge back. They did not. I followed up again, they said the Manager has processed the credit. Two weeks later I had to call again, because the credit was not processed. The Andover branch of True Green is a disaster. 12/3/2019 Update- True Green refunded the entire Aeration and over seed charge, so moving to 3 stars. The costs are OK, the approach is cookie cutter, so requires some active management in my opinion on the side of the customer.

They came last year 2017 three times in a two week period and totally burnt my lawn out and ruined it. That came out looked at the problem and told me that they would come back in the spring of 2018. Give me too soil and hydro seed it. An outside company called me in the fall to tell me they would be out in the spring. I have an email from the manager too proving this. So now it s spring and I call, they tell me the manager doesn t work there no more so they come out and air raid my lawn and over seed it. It s been 3 weeks no activity and now no one calls me back. Don t know where to go from here, one thing I can assure you that don t trust there word or emails if this happens to you. I m going to have to get a lawyer now and take it to the next step.

Poor product, poor customer service. They do not honor your request to be put on their do not call list. These guys are bad. Stay away. Find a local landscaper to assist you with your lawn care needs.

Lawn looks worse then ever. It was explained to me that reason for the problem was the ban on water. But that didnt stop then for seeding and fertilizering. Canceled service. Do too getting unsatisfactorily assistant. Customer service is the worse . I guess when they loose enough customers things will change then.

After my last lawn treatment I was encouraged to get grass plugs for the thinned out areas and recommended that I put some top soil on this area as well. I called to have the plugs put in and Tyson Downs came out to give me an estimate. I approved the estimate and I have contraced with a person to bring the top soil. This has always been a hard area to get the grass to grow but it is improving and with the top soil and new plugs I am sure it will beging to grow well again.

I hired this company for my lawn care. I cant give negative review else i would give -5. Because my house is brand new development, its not on Google gps yet. So actual guy from Trugreen came to my house and give me price. I paid in full. So they know Before I signed up where is my house. After that no body showed up for 1 month. I was keep calling twice every week about whats going on. They were claiming that guys actually did service somewhere. Now no body did anything at my house. Finally i spooked with manager, and one guy showed up, and he buttered us and said , now he updated his system, and I dont need too worry at all. After that for another 2 month, no body showed up, and i was keep calling Trugreen once or twice a month, and each time, they would get direction and update my SAME CALL PHONE number, so next time technician can call me before , if he cant find my house. Then, cycle continued about, calling them and nobody showing up and wasting my time. And did i say, what happened to my lawn. Very poor service. And I live 9 miles from Boston airport, not in any remote place.

I have only had positive results from all the different treatments during the spring, summer and fall season. My lawn and shrubs havent looked this good in years. I trust the knowledge of the employees who treat my lawn. They have always been pleasant to talk to.

Avoid using Scotts Lawn Service. They came to my house and sprayed pesticides without my consent or authorization, and left me a bill on the door. I called customer service and they apologized and told me I would not need to pay for the service, but my lawn turned brown-yellow in 24hrs, and getting worst by the day! It makes me so angry. I attached a picture because this is completely true. Do not request a quote from Scotts Lawn because even if you dont want the service, they will still come and do it while you are not at home and then bill you for damaging your lawn. This is beyond abusive behavior. I cannot believe this happened, they totally ruined my lawn, and without even consulting me before stepping into my own backyard.
