Lawn Care and Landscaping Uniform Shirts That Bring In Work
By The Velocity Wear Team
Lawn care and landscaping crews work outside, in heat, in plain sight of neighbors who might be your next customers. Uniform shirts do double duty: keeping crews comfortable and turning every job into an advertisement.
Beat the heat
- Lightweight, moisture-wicking performance tees for hot summers.
- Long-sleeve sun shirts for UV protection on long days.
- Light or bright colors that reflect heat.
- Breathable cotton blends for milder climates.
Visibility
Bright colors like lime green, safety orange or royal blue make crews visible to drivers and neighbors. For crews working near roads, certified hi-vis apparel may be required, so follow your safety requirements.
Branding that sells
Put your logo on the left chest and your company name, phone number and website across the back in big, clear lettering. Neighbors see the back of a crew member bent over a flower bed. Make it easy for them to call.
Durable decoration
Screen printing handles large back prints well and survives lots of washing. Embroidery on the chest looks professional. Avoid delicate prints that crack with sweat and sun.
Seasonal layers
Fall cleanup and snow removal crews need hoodies and jackets. Keep branding consistent across seasons so crews are recognizable year round.
How many shirts
Crews working five days in summer heat need at least five shirts each. Seasonal workers need a set too. Keep spares for new hires.
Sizing
Collect sizes individually. Crews often skew L to 3XL. Our minimum is 20 per design with sizes mixed.
Budget
Tees start from $13 each at 20 pieces. Check totals on the calculator.
Timing
Production takes 10 to 15 working days after artwork approval, plus shipping. Order before spring hiring.
Branded trucks and trailers
Match your uniform colors to your truck and trailer graphics. When a crew in lime green shirts steps out of a lime green truck, the brand is unmistakable, and neighbors remember the name.
Seasonal crew onboarding
Many landscaping companies hire seasonal crews every spring. Order uniforms before hiring starts, and give each new hire a set on day one along with basic care instructions. Ask seasonal staff to return shirts at the end of the season.
Photos for your marketing
Before-and-after photos with a uniformed crew in the frame make great social posts and Google Business Profile images. Customers trust a company that looks organized.
Caps and sun protection
Branded caps protect crews from the sun and complete the look. Caps are on the same 20-piece minimum; see caps.
Snow removal crews
Many landscaping companies switch to snow removal in winter. Branded hoodies and jackets keep crews visible and warm on early morning plows. Where crews work near traffic, follow hi-vis requirements.
Customer-facing account managers
Account managers and estimators visiting homeowners or commercial properties benefit from smarter branded polos, while field crews wear durable tees. Keep colors consistent.
Uniforms and safety culture
Crews that look like a team tend to act like one. Consistent uniforms support a culture of professionalism that extends to safety practices, like wearing eye and ear protection with mowers and trimmers. Pair uniform issue with a quick safety briefing for new crew members at the start of each season, and follow your safety requirements for PPE.
Order timing
Allow 10 to 15 working days of production plus shipping, and order before spring hiring starts.
