We serve Northeast Indiana as well, so this whole corner is normal territory rather than the edge of a map.
Getting here: South of Hicksville, near the Indiana line.
Exposure decides plant survival
Open farm country means nothing slows the wind. New trees need proper staking their first season or they rock in the ground and never root out. Evergreens on the west and north sides lose moisture through winter that frozen soil cannot replace — which is why so many arborvitae here brown out on one side by March. On genuinely exposed properties, a windbreak of staggered Norway spruce or white pine does more for the yard than any ornamental planting, and it reduces winter heating load besides.
Flat ground, deliberate water management
Western Van Wert County has the same profile as the rest of our home ground — dense clay with very little natural fall. Water does not leave on its own. Downspouts piped away from the foundation is the highest-return work on nearly any property here. After that, positive grade at the foundation and shallow swales pitched to a road ditch or documented outlet. Everything gets shot with a laser level because eyeballing pitch on ground this flat is how systems end up running the wrong way.
Rural drives and drifting snow
Convoy drives drift badly. A drive clear at dawn can be closed by mid-morning with nothing new falling. Our agreements here include return passes rather than a single push, and we stake drive edges in the fall so crews can clear accurately when the pavement line is buried.
What Convoy properties call us for
These are the services this ground actually needs, ordered by what the soil and terrain in Van Wert County demand rather than by what is easiest to sell.
- Lawn Mowing & Property MaintenanceWeekly mowing, trimming and edging on a schedule you can set your watch by — residential and commercial.
- Snow Removal & Ice ManagementPlowing, shoveling and salting on a trigger you set — residential drives and commercial lots, all winter.
- Drainage Solutions & Yard GradingFrench drains, swales and regrading that move water away from your foundation before it costs you a basement.
- Tree & Shrub TrimmingPruned at the right time of year, to the right cut — so plants stay in scale instead of getting sheared into boxes.
- Mulching & Landscape Bed MaintenanceCrisp cut edges, correct mulch depth, and beds that stay clean instead of needing a rescue every July.
- Spring & Fall CleanupsThe two visits a year that decide how the rest of the season goes — debris out, beds reset, leaves gone.

Why Convoy property owners choose us
This is our home ground
Convoy sits inside the counties we work every week from Hicksville. That shows up most in winter, when distance decides whose driveway gets cleared first.
We fix the water before anything else
Every dollar spent on plants or hardscape sitting on ground that stays wet gets spent twice. On Van Wert County soil we diagnose drainage first — and often the honest answer is two downspouts rather than a system.
46 Google reviews, licensed and insured
Verbatim reviews from neighbours across the region, full coverage on every crew and machine, and financing available so a full plan can be built in one season.
One contractor for all four seasons
Landscaping April through November and snow and ice through the winter, from the same crews. The people who stake a drive in November are the people who mowed it in July.
