Landscaping in the Bronx.

From Riverdale to Mott Haven, the Bronx is often the borough that gets skipped. Bobby is coming here the same as anywhere else.

From the leafy lawns of Riverdale to family homes in Throgs Neck and Pelham Bay, the Bronx has more green than people expect. Bobby is bringing vetted landscapers to keep it that way.

Be first when Bobby opens for Landscaping in the Bronx. No spam, just your launch invite.

The math, both ways

A flat $1 fee, whichever side you are on.

Here is how a fall yard cleanup works on Bobby, for the customer and for the landscaper. Drag the price to see it at any job size. Same flat fee, no percentage cut, ever.

$95

If you book it (customer)

Landscaper's price$95
Bobby fee+ $1
Card processingat cost
Price + Bobby fee$96

The landscaper keeps 100% of their price. Bobby's fee is a flat $1, never a percentage. Standard card processing is billed at cost, and your full total is shown before you confirm.

If you provide it (landscaper)

Your price$95
Bobby's cut from you$0
You keep$95

A typical 25% app would take $24 of this job. On Bobby, all $95 stays yours.

What you keep as a landscaper, side by side

On Bobby
100%
