In 1973, our corporate headquarters were established in East Lansing, Michigan operating as TruGreen.
With the success of our lawn care services,
ServiceMaster® decided to acquire
TruGreen in 1990, after which we then moved our headquarters to Memphis,
Tennessee to join the ServiceMaster family of brands.
ServiceMaster officially acquired ChemLawn in 1992, making our business unit
the largest professional lawn care provider in the nation. It immediately began
operating as TruGreen, doing business as TruGreen.
Combined with our commercial services business unit,
TruGreen LandCare,
TruGreen has become the world's largest lawn and landscape company
serving more than 3.4 million
residential
and
commercial customers
across the U.S. with
lawn care,
tree and shrub care, and landscaping services.
As the current industry leader, we've continued to lead in the development of
new technology for lawn care. TruGreen devotes substantial resources
to continually evaluate new products and equipment and to develop better
methods for taking care of grass, trees, and shrubs. All of our lawn
specialists are tenured full-time employees who must complete a rigorous
training program before they can be certified by TruGreen.
Additionally, we have taken an active leadership role in both developing and
supporting sound
environmental practices and regulatory policies. TruGreen is committed
to environmentally responsible practices and products, and we have established
our own set of environmental stewardship principles.
