The routes are different each day, some routes consist of fifteen smaller accounts, or another route could be one client campus, each day will be different. The route allocated to you will be repeated on a weekly or biweekly basis. When you arrive you will be checking in with our client and then servicing the plant displays at that location, which includes watering, cleaning, pruning/trimming, fertilizing and pest control. You will then make notes of what plants need replacing, checkout with the client and move on to the next account. Each account will be different and could have large trees, atrium spaces, vertical greenwalls or small flowering desk displays. One client maybe a public mall another client could include you going in to the CEO's office of a Fortune Top 500 company.
