Keeping Grass Short Around Your Blue Mountains Home Before Fire Season

Why mowing and slashing matter before the bushfire season, and where to find official advice.

Why grass length matters

Long, dry grass burns easily and carries fire quickly. Keeping grass short near buildings is one common part of preparing a property for the bushfire season.

What mowing and slashing can do

Regular mowing keeps lawns short, and slashing can cut back long grass on larger blocks and paddocks. Clean-ups can remove dry leaves, cut branches and other loose material.

Follow official guidance

Requirements depend on your property and local rules. Check the NSW Rural Fire Service website and your council for advice about your block. We can do the mowing and clearing work, but we can't advise on legal compliance.

Book before summer
