🌿 Grow Your Landscaping Business with EDDM Postcards That Turn Lawns (and Heads)

Why Landscapers Should Be Using EDDM Postcards (Right Now)

You’ve got the mower, the blower, the mulch—and that green thumb magic. But if your schedule’s looking a little... bare, don’t panic. What you might be missing is Every Door Direct Mail (EDDM)—a ridiculously affordable and powerful way to put your landscaping services into the hands of thousands of local homeowners.

And we mean literally into their hands.

With EDDM Postcards, you can blanket entire zip codes or neighborhoods without a mailing list or crazy ad spend. Just pick the area, design your postcard, and we handle the rest—printing, bundling, and USPS-compliant delivery.

The Green Benefits of EDDM for Landscaping Companies

You're Always Local

Landscaping is hyper-local. Homeowners aren’t looking for someone three towns over—they want a crew that's five minutes away and can swing by for an estimate after lunch.

EDDM lets you target specific mail carrier routes in the neighborhoods you want to service most.

Lawn Care = Visual Business

Let’s be honest: your work looks amazing. A glossy postcard showing a lush, striped lawn and a mulched bed with laser-straight edging? That’s better than any Yelp review. EDDM postcards are the perfect format for showing off before-and-after landscaping glory.

Reminds Customers You're Seasonal

Out of sight, out of mind. With changing seasons, landscaping is an easy-to-forget service. A well-timed EDDM postcard acts as a seasonal reminder (with a nudge) that it’s time to mow, seed, clean up, or plant.

Best Times for Landscapers to Send EDDM Mailers

Lawn seeding, mulching, bed cleanup, aeration promos

EDDM Postcard Headlines That Work for Landscapers

“Your Lawn Called. It’s Jealous of Your Neighbor’s.”

Funny. Relatable. And a little passive-aggressive in the best way.

“Tired of Mowing? We Love It (We’re Weird Like That).”

Emphasize convenience and take the chore off their plate.

“We Turn Weeds Into Wow.”

Short, catchy, and leads beautifully into a before/after photo.

“Fall Leaves Are Pretty. Until They're Everywhere.”

Perfect for fall cleanup promos.

Best Sizes for Landscaping EDDM Postcards

Bigger cards = better visibility. And you’ve got visuals to show off.

6.5×9 postcard – Good for quick spring promos
6.5×12 postcard – Great for showcasing multiple services
8.5×14 postcard – Ideal for seasonal promos and checklists
9×12 postcard – Big, bold, and visually stunning

At BlockbusterPrint.com, we specialize in all of these sizes and offer same-day printing, expert layout assistance, and full-service mailing to get your cards into mailboxes without you lifting a rake.
