Before you list: three things worth telling a mower about a Taylors Hill lawn
- Regular beats catching up at this age. A missed month doubles the next visit.
- If cars have rutted the strip, mention it - a mower needs to know before scalping the high side.
- A blow-down of the paths at the end is part of a standard visit, not an extra.
Taylors Hill lawn mowing questions
How much does lawn mowing cost in Taylors Hill?+
Guide price for 180 m² of lawn is $100-$145, standard visit. A lawn of fifteen to twenty years that has missed a month takes about twice as long to cut and is quoted that way, so a regular round prices better than catching up.
Does the council mow nature strips in Taylors Hill?+
No. Melton is explicit that it does not carry out mowing or watering of nature strips: the resident maintains the strip abutting their property, including topping up soil and levelling trip hazards.
Do I need council permission to plant my nature strip?+
Yes, in Melton. Anything other than grass needs a nature strip landscaping application, and the council will not reinstate a strip damaged by vehicles parking on it.
About Taylors Hill
The Watervale shops and the state primary opened in 2010, the Taylors Hill shopping centre in 2011, and Gilson College came out from Pascoe Vale in 1987; the population went from 6,541 in 2006 to 19,539 in 2021. So the lawns here are mostly fifteen to twenty years old, past the fragile first summers. A lawn at that age will survive a missed month without looking sick, and then take twice as long to cut.
The ground is the same western clay as the rest of Melton, so the summer instruction is the same: keep the height up so the soil stays shaded, and never scalp it in February. Neighbourhood reserves are dotted through the streets, and a linear reserve and wetland run along a tributary of Kororoit Creek. The suburb is bounded by Gourlay Road, Taylors Road, Overton Lea Boulevard and Hume Drive.
Taylors Hill is City of Melton, and the strip is entirely the resident's: the council does not mow or water nature strips, and it will not repair a strip that vehicles have damaged by parking on it. The green-lid FOGO bin takes grass clippings, fortnightly on the alternate week to recycling, with nothing extra on the rates for it.
