Real budgets from landscaping jobs posted on GigNGo — not estimates.
Based on landscaping jobs posted on GigNGo nationwide. Updated October 2026.
Landscaping ranges from a day of planting and mulching to full bed redesigns with stone borders and irrigation. The size and ambition of the plan drive the price more than anything else.
Mulch, soil, stone, edging, and mature plants add up quickly. The same design can price very differently depending on plant sizes and material choices.
Removing old shrubs, regrading, or working around roots and slopes adds labor before the new landscape can go in.
The figure above is what the job itself costs. What you actually pay depends on where you book it, because most platforms add something — and where that something lands, on you or on the person doing the work, is the real difference between them. These are the published fee structures, not our estimates of them:
Based on landscaping jobs posted on GigNGo, the median budget is $500. Most jobs fall between $250 and $500, and the full range runs from $25 to $650.
The main factors are scope of the project, materials and plants, site condition and prep. Describing your job clearly when you post it helps local workers give you an accurate quote the first time.
Post a task on GigNGo describing the work, your location, and when you need it done. Local workers nearby respond with offers, and you can compare their reviews and prices before choosing. GigNGo does not charge booking fees, and local workers keep the full amount you pay them.
Yes — labour rates and travel time differ by area, so a city figure will not match a rural one. We report one national median of $500 rather than per-city numbers, because a "median" drawn from two or three jobs in one town is noise wearing a decimal point. The national median is the number we can stand behind, and the middle-50% range ($250–$500) is where most jobs land. For your own area, posting the job is the accurate way to find out.
Two reasons, and only one of them is the work. The first is genuine: scope of the project, materials and plants, site condition and prep. The second is the platform. On sites that charge for leads, the person quoting has already paid to reach you and prices that in; on ones that take a commission, the cut is inside the number you see. GigNGo takes no commission and no lead fee, so the price you agree with a local is the price they keep — there is nothing added on our side for them to recover.
