What We Typically Recommend

FORMAT

6×9 glossy postcard — large enough to showcase a great-looking yard with a compelling offer, and bigger than a standard letter so it stands out the moment someone pulls it from the mailbox.

TARGETING

Homes in your service area — we filter to residential properties only and exclude apartments and commercial addresses. Every piece goes to a household with a yard.

FREQUENCY

Monthly — lawn and landscape decisions happen seasonally, but the homeowners who switch providers or hire for the first time do it throughout the year. Monthly mailings keep your name in front of them the moment they're ready.

PRICING

All-inclusive: design, mailing list, print, addressing, and postage. See full pricing below.

Also do commercial work? We can target businesses in your service area using a separate commercial list — property managers, HOAs, office parks, and retail centers. Ask us about adding a commercial targeting layer to your campaign.

Why This Plan

The Real Play Isn't the First Job. It's the Client Who Pays You Every Month for the Next Three Years.

A new lawn maintenance customer paying $100–$200/month generates $1,200–$2,400 in annual revenue — and many stick around for years. A single retained maintenance client covers your mailing cost many times over. The math works before you count installation jobs, which average $500–$3,000+ depending on scope.

Targeting is what makes a landscaping campaign work. We mail homes only — filtering out apartments and commercial addresses so every piece lands at a property with a yard. Monthly consistency is what compounds over time — when a homeowner fires their current landscaper or decides it's finally time to hire one, your postcard is already on their desk.

One Client Pays for Months of Campaigns
A recurring maintenance customer at $150/month = $1,800/year. Your mailing costs $857–$1,310/month. A single new client retained for a full season pays for your entire campaign and then some.
Recurring Revenue Is the Real Prize

One-time installs are profitable, but weekly or bi-weekly maintenance contracts are where landscaping businesses scale. Postcards target homes with yards — the exact households most likely to become long-term service clients.

Every Piece Goes to a Home With a Yard

Our Homes Only list filters out apartments and commercial addresses before anything gets printed. Your entire budget goes to residential properties in your service area — the exact homeowners most likely to hire a landscaper.

Neighborhood Clusters Drive Referrals

A truck in the neighborhood is visible. A postcard in every mailbox amplifies it. When your work is visible on a street and your postcard confirms you service that area, neighbors notice — and call.

TRANSPARENT PRICING

All-Inclusive — No Hidden Fees

The price you see includes everything: custom design, homes-only mailing list, printing, addressing, and postage. With a 3-month initial commitment, you get our best pricing — then continue at that same low rate month-to-month.

Eric Montoya

Redeem Lawncare LLC
I asked some questions with my concerns on mailouts. Cactus Mailing's communication was very helpful. The product and graphic design were way beyond my expectations. All I have to say is WOW!  I will definitely be using this company for my marketing.

Easton Kramer

ET Landscaping
I have used Cactus Mailing on 2 separate occasions through my landscaping business, ET Landscaping, in the spring and fall. It helped boost leads tremendously during slow periods, without having to go door to door sales. I would recommend them for any business looking for instant leads.

Christie Streety

A to Z Tree and Turf
Cactus Mailing has been great! We’ve worked with Joe multiple times and he’s incredibly helpful. The design process is straightforward and the postcard designs are professional and exactly what we are looking for! The best part? The results of our campaigns have been more successful than what we expected! I highly recommend them to anyone looking for direct mailers.

Michael Crnkovic

Fresh Cut Professionals
Cactus Mailing has great price, service and value. They have handled nearly 100k mail pieces for me. I have used their in-house design team which delivered results as excepted as well as summited my own designs. I love the emails when post card will be hitting mailboxes! The phones are always busy the following day.

Landscaping Postcard FAQs

Most landscaping companies start with 1,500–2,500 postcards per month. For a tightly defined service area of a few neighborhoods, 1,500 pieces gives you consistent coverage without overspending. If you’re ready to add routes, expand into new neighborhoods, or build a maintenance base faster, 2,500–5,000 per mailing gives you the reach to do it. The key is consistency — mailing 2,500 homes every month significantly outperforms mailing 10,000 homes once. We’ll pull your service area, count the residential addresses in range, and tell you exactly how many homes fall in your target area before you commit to anything.
Most landscaping companies receive calls from their first mailing, especially when they launch at the start of a peak season. But the bigger payoff comes from consistency. A homeowner who gets your card in February might not call until April when the grass starts growing. A household that’s been meaning to fire their current landscaper might finally make the switch when your card arrives for the third month in a row. We recommend a minimum 3-month run to see the compounding effect — most clients who reach month 3 continue because the math is working clearly by then. Launching ahead of spring or fall is the smart timing move for landscaping specifically.
Cactus Mailing’s landscaping campaigns are all-inclusive — custom design, homes-only mailing list, printing, addressing, and postage in one price. Campaigns start at $857/mailing for 1,500 postcards ($0.57/piece), $1,310/mailing for 2,500 ($0.52/piece), and $2,395/mailing for 5,000 ($0.48/piece). There’s no setup fee and no design fee. The initial commitment is 3 months, then month-to-month. Adding addressable geofencing — digital ads that follow the same homeowners to their devices — starts at $290/month on top of your postcard budget. A single new maintenance client retained for a season typically generates $1,200–$2,400 in revenue, which means the math works quickly for most landscaping companies.
For residential landscaping, a Homes Only list is the right call — every piece goes to a single-family property in your service area, with apartments and commercial addresses filtered out before anything gets printed. Call us and we’ll pull a count for your target area — you’ll know exactly how many residential addresses are in range before you commit to anything.
A free first mow or a free on-site estimate are the strongest offers for most landscaping companies. Free estimates work well for design and installation jobs — there’s no commitment, and you get in front of the homeowner to sell in person. For maintenance plans, a free first mow or a discount on the first month removes the hesitation of trying a new company. The offer should be prominent on the front of the postcard and tied to a deadline or a seasonal hook (“Get your lawn ready before summer”). Your credentials — licensed, insured, years in business, service area — go on the back. The offer gets them to call. Your reputation closes the job.
EDDM sends to every address on a carrier route — which includes apartments, condos, commercial buildings, and every address type in between. For landscaping, that’s a fundamental targeting problem. You need to reach homes with yards, not apartment units or office parks. EDDM cannot filter by property type, so a significant percentage of every EDDM mailing goes to addresses that can never become your customer. Our Homes Only list filters out non-residential addresses before anything gets printed, so your budget goes exclusively to homes in your service area. Call us and we’ll run the address breakdown for your area before you commit to anything.
