Reducing Vendor Coordination for Property Managers

Property managers coordinating separate vendors for snow removal, lawn mowing, and seasonal cleanups face scheduling conflicts and communication breakdowns that consume administrative hours. Managing multiple service contracts means tracking different billing cycles, coordinating access schedules, and maintaining relationships with contractors who operate on varying quality standards.

Year-Round Service Coverage Under One Provider

Yardly delivers snow removal, lawn mowing, spring cleanup, and fall cleanup through a single vendor relationship that spans all four seasons in Edmonton and Calgary. Property management firms avoid the task of sourcing separate contractors for winter snow clearing and summer lawn maintenance. One point of contact handles service scheduling, quality issues, and billing questions across all properties in a portfolio.

Consolidated Billing Across Property Portfolios

Property managers receive one monthly invoice covering all services and all properties rather than processing separate bills from different contractors for each building and service type. Consolidated billing reduces accounts payable workload and simplifies budget tracking for firms managing 10 to 50+ residential units. Finance teams reconcile one vendor relationship instead of managing payment schedules for multiple lawn care companies and snow removal contractors throughout the year.

Service Delivery in Edmonton and Calgary Markets

Yardly operates across both Edmonton and Calgary markets, allowing property management firms to use one vendor for portfolios that span both cities. Properties located in Sherwood Park, St. Albert, Cochrane, Airdrie, and Chestermere (summer services only) receive the same service access as buildings within Edmonton and Calgary city limits. Multi-city portfolio managers avoid the complexity of researching and vetting separate regional contractors for each market they operate in.

Service Coverage for Multi-City Property Portfolios

Property management firms operating across Edmonton and Calgary need maintenance vendors who deliver consistent service quality regardless of which municipality a building is located in. Regional coverage determines whether property managers can consolidate all buildings under one vendor relationship or must maintain separate contractors for different markets. Yardly services properties throughout the Edmonton and Calgary metropolitan regions plus surrounding communities where property managers commonly operate residential portfolios.

Edmonton Regional Service Coverage

  • Edmonton metropolitan area including all quadrants and established neighborhoods throughout the city
  • Sherwood Park residential complexes, townhomes, and multi-unit properties
  • St. Albert apartment buildings and condominium associations

Calgary Regional Service Coverage

  • Calgary metropolitan area across all city quadrants and neighborhoods
  • Cochrane residential properties and multi-unit buildings
  • Airdrie apartment complexes and townhome developments
  • Chestermere condominium properties and residential units (summer services only)

Licensed and Insured Contractor Compliance

Property management firms require vendors who carry liability insurance and maintain proper licensing to protect against risk exposure from maintenance-related incidents. Yardly operates with fully insured and licensed contractors, meeting the compliance standards property managers need for vendor relationships. Insurance coverage protects property owners and management companies from liability claims arising from slip-and-fall incidents on snow-covered walkways or injuries occurring during lawn maintenance operations.

Service Coverage for Multi-City Property Portfolios

Property management firms acquiring additional buildings need maintenance vendors who accommodate portfolio growth without quality decline or service capacity constraints. Vendors who cannot scale create the need to add additional contractors as portfolios expand, reintroducing the multi-vendor coordination problems that consolidation was meant to solve. Yardly has served over 10,000 Alberta homes since 2015, demonstrating the service capacity to support property managers operating portfolios ranging from 10 units to 50+ units across multiple buildings.

Volume Pricing for Multiple Properties

Yardly offers volume discounts when property managers bundle lawn care and snow removal services across multiple buildings within a portfolio. Volume pricing reduces total maintenance costs compared to purchasing services for each property individually. Property management firms benefit from economy-of-scale pricing as portfolio size increases beyond 10 units.

Flexible Service Subscription Options

  • Monthly lawn mowing subscriptions for ongoing grass cutting and trimming throughout the growing season
  • Seasonal snow removal packages covering unlimited snow clearing from first snowfall through final spring melt
  • One-time spring cleanup services for post-winter debris removal and lawn preparation
  • One-time fall cleanup services for leaf removal and winter preparation
  • Combined service bundles pairing lawn care with snow removal for year-round coverage

Service Flexibility Without Long-Term Contracts

Yardly operates on flexible subscription plans that do not require multi-year service contracts or long-term vendor commitments. Property managers adjust service levels or discontinue subscriptions without penalty fees or contract termination costs. This flexibility accommodates the reality that property portfolios change as buildings are acquired or sold throughout a fiscal year.

Maintaining Properties to Support Tenant Retention

Tenant complaints about snow-covered walkways and overgrown lawns create property manager workload and damage the tenant experience that influences lease renewal decisions. Properties with poor curb appeal and inconsistent maintenance generate higher complaint volumes that consume management time and strain tenant relationships. Reliable maintenance service reduces complaint frequency by addressing snow accumulation and lawn overgrowth before tenants need to contact property management offices.

Snow Removal Within 24-Hour Service Guarantee

Yardly clears driveways, walkways, and sidewalks within 24 hours of every snowfall, providing the timely snow removal that tenants expect for safe property access during Edmonton and Calgary winter months. The 24-hour service guarantee establishes a predictable timeline property managers can communicate to tenants when winter weather arrives. Guaranteed snow clearing reduces tenant complaints about inaccessible parking areas and unsafe walking surfaces during winter storm events.

Consistent Lawn Maintenance Throughout Summer

Weekly or bi-weekly lawn mowing maintains consistent grass height and property appearance from spring through fall, preventing the overgrown conditions that generate tenant complaints. Regular mowing schedules eliminate the unpredictable service timing that occurs when property managers coordinate lawn care on an ad-hoc basis with unreliable contractors. Consistent maintenance keeps multi-unit properties presentable throughout the growing season without requiring property manager oversight of each individual service visit.

Photo Documentation After Service Completion

Yardly sends property managers photo updates after completing each maintenance visit, providing visual confirmation that scheduled work occurred as planned. Photo documentation creates a service record property managers can reference when tenants claim maintenance was not performed or was completed inadequately. This documentation reduces the time property managers spend investigating tenant complaints and verifying that contractors completed assigned work.

Transparent Pricing for Property Management Budgets

Property managers building annual maintenance budgets need upfront pricing information without hidden fees or variable charges that create budget overruns during the fiscal year. Unpredictable maintenance costs complicate financial planning and force property managers to maintain larger contingency reserves for unexpected vendor charges. Yardly provides transparent pricing with costs established before service begins, allowing property managers to forecast maintenance expenses accurately.

Upfront Cost Structure Without Hidden Fees

Yardly quotes service costs before work begins, with pricing that includes all standard maintenance activities without additional fees for equipment, fuel surcharges, or disposal costs. Property managers see total costs during the quote process rather than discovering additional charges after services are delivered. Transparent pricing eliminates surprise invoices that exceed budgeted amounts and require variance explanations to property owners or condominium boards.

Single Invoice for All Services and Properties

Property management firms receive one consolidated monthly invoice covering snow removal, lawn care, and seasonal cleanups across all buildings in a portfolio. Single-invoice billing reduces accounts payable processing time compared to managing separate invoices from different contractors for each property and service category. Consolidated billing simplifies financial reporting by grouping all landscape and snow maintenance expenses under one vendor line item in monthly statements.

Online Booking and Quote Management

Online tools allow property managers to compare service options and pricing for different property types before making purchasing decisions. Digital booking eliminates the delays associated with traditional vendor sourcing processes that require multiple phone conversations and written quote requests.
