Landscaping Government Contracts

Federal landscaping and grounds-maintenance contracts set aside for small business — mowing, tree work, and grounds keeping at government facilities.

Grounds maintenance at military bases, national cemeteries, VA campuses, and federal buildings: mowing cycles, tree trimming and removal, irrigation, snow-season add-ons. Contracts typically run a base year plus options, so one win is several years of revenue.

Landscaping & Grounds contracts — common questions

How do I get government landscaping contracts?expand_more

Register free on SAM.gov under NAICS 561730, then watch the federal facilities within driving distance — bases, cemeteries, and VA campuses rebid grounds contracts on predictable cycles. Respond to Sources Sought notices to get the work set aside for your certification before the solicitation is written.

What NAICS code is landscaping?expand_more

NAICS 561730 (Landscaping Services) covers mowing, grounds keeping, tree services, and irrigation work. Its SBA size standard is receipts-based and most independent landscaping companies are far below the cap.

Do I need a certification to win this work?expand_more

No — most grounds contracts are plain small-business set-asides where self-certified size is enough. SDVOSB and 8(a) set-asides are also common (national cemetery grounds work in particular is frequently SDVOSB), so certifications add real shots on goal.

Set-Aside Pro is an independent publication, not affiliated with the SBA or SAM.gov. Size standards shown are from the SBA's published table — confirm the current figures and each solicitation's requirements before bidding.
