The average hourly rate for gardeners in New Zealand is $35-65. Some gardeners will charge slightly differently e.g. $1 a minute or just have a fixed price for a job.
This will depend on a variety of factors:
1. Materials - if the gardener needs special equipment for your job or petrol for their mower, you may be charged for what's needed. It’s best to discuss this with your pro before the job goes ahead.
2. Travel cost (this can be factored into the labour charge) - if the gardener charges travel costs, this is usually charged from the time the gardener leaves for your home, to when they arrive back at their base after the job.
3. GST (if any) - the total of 1, 2 will be added, and GST (15%) added.
