Service Area

Jefferson to Toccoa,
Town by Town


We keep our territory tight so every property gets a crew that knows the local soil, slopes, and weather, and can be back on site quickly when you need us.

Why We Stay Local

Small Territory, Close Attention


A lot of landscape companies chase work across half the state. We'd rather know our corner of it well. Our service area runs from the fast-growing I-85 corridor around Jefferson and Commerce up through Banks County and the foothills of Habersham, east to Lake Hartwell country around Lavonia and Royston, and north to Toccoa and Stephens County.

That focus pays off on every job. Our crews know that a new subdivision in Jackson County probably has compacted fill and rushed final grades, that a hillside lot in Clarkesville needs a different wall than a flat one in Commerce, and that a lake home near Lavonia needs runoff kept out of the water. We bring that local knowledge to each property, along with the family-owned accountability the Hanco name has carried here since 2002.

Town by Town

What We See in Each Community


Every town has its own mix of soil, slope, and property types. Here's what our crews run into most often.

Landscaping in Toccoa

Stephens County

Our home base. Older in-town homes with mature trees and tired beds, foothill lots below Currahee Mountain with real slope, and rural acreage. Retaining walls, drainage, and bed renovations are the most common projects here.

Schedule in Toccoa

Landscaping in Eastanollee & Avalon

Stephens County

Rural homes and small farms with long driveways, open turf, and drainage crossings. Driveway culverts, large-area mowing, and pasture-edge weed control are frequent requests.

Schedule in Stephens County

Landscaping in Lavonia

Franklin County

Lake Hartwell homes where runoff and erosion matter as much as curb appeal, plus the I-85 commercial corridor. Shoreline-side erosion control, rock work, and commercial grounds contracts.

Landscaping in Carnesville & Royston

Franklin County

Small-town homes, churches, and county facilities with established lawns. Weed control programs, shrub renovations, and seasonal cleanups lead the work here.

Local Conditions

What Shapes Landscapes in Our Area


Piedmont Red Clay

Dense, slow-draining clay across most of our area. It needs amending in beds, proper bases under hardscape, and drainage planning everywhere.

Foothill Slopes

From Toccoa through Clarkesville and Cornelia, many lots have serious grade. Walls, terraces, and erosion control turn slope into usable space.

Fast New Growth

Around Jefferson, Commerce, and Hoschton, new construction often comes with stripped topsoil, compacted fill, and minimal landscaping that needs real follow-through.

Common Questions

Service Area FAQ


I don't see my town listed. Do you serve my area?

If you're between Jefferson and Toccoa or nearby, the answer is probably yes. Call and we'll let you know. For larger commercial and government projects, we travel farther.

Why don't you serve Metro Atlanta like Hanco Exterminating?

Landscape and hardscape work depends on crews being close by, for scheduling, weather delays, and follow-up. Keeping our area tight lets us give every property the attention it deserves. Hanco Exterminating serves a wider area for pest, termite, and mosquito work.

Do you charge more for properties farther away?

Pricing is based on the work and the property, not which town in our core area you're in. For projects outside our five-county core, we'll discuss any travel considerations up front.

How quickly can you come out for an estimate?

Because our area is compact, estimate visits are usually scheduled within days. Spring is our busiest season, so call early for spring installs and pre-emergent programs.
