GreenPal works by residential clients posting on the app that they need lawn care; then pre-screened landscape vendors post bids on what it will charge for that needed service.

According to the brand’s website, clients should get at least five bids in an hour— clients then can choose what vendor they want to hire, and can pay them on the app. Some have said “it’'s like Uber for lawn care,” the company said in a news release announcing its expansion.
