What moves the price in Saint John

  • Yard size (roughly $20-50 per 1,000 sq ft)

Licensing and permits in New Brunswick

Yard cleanup crews generally don't need a trade license in the US or Canada (it's landscaping labor, not a regulated trade); confirm the company carries general liability insurance, and ask separately about certification if the job includes pesticide/herbicide application or tree removal, which some states/provinces do regulate.

Residential building/development permits in New Brunswick are issued by the local municipality's building inspection department, or by the regional service commission (e.g., Fundy Regional Service Commission, Southwest NB Service Commission) for rural, unincorporated areas — all reviewed against the National Building Code of Canada 2020. In Saint John, permits come from the City of Saint John – Growth and Community Services, Permitting and Inspection (One Stop Development Shop).

Tax: Unlike many US states that exempt labor, Canada's HST applies to labor as well as materials on home repair and renovation services — a New Brunswick contractor charges 15% HST on the full invoice, labor included.

Best time to book in Saint John

Fall (Sept-Nov) is the most expensive and highest-demand window because most yards need leaf removal in the same 4-6 week stretch; spring (Apr-May) is a secondary, lighter-demand peak. Booking in late August/early September lands a spot on a crew's fall list before the rush, often at better rates. Peak demand: April, May, September, October and November. Typical job length: 2-6 hours for a standard residential visit; full-acre or heavily overgrown lots can run a full day.

DIY or pro? Light raking and bagging on a small, well-kept lawn is reasonable DIY; hire a crew for large lots, heavy leaf/debris volume, gutter clearing, or an overgrown yard that's gone untouched for a season.
