Web request

The homeowner submitted the signup form directly. Once approved, it’s a confirmed request volunteers can consider.

Phoned-in

The homeowner called 862-66-MOWER and left a voicemail. We organize the details and look for nearby volunteer support.

Mow Notice

A neighbor, relative, case manager, or another community member noticed a yard. Because the homeowner hasn’t requested help directly, privacy review, respectful outreach, and homeowner consent come first.
