Dunedin City Council Lawn Mowing & Edging Regulations

Dunedin City Council Lawn Mowing & Edging Regulations

The Dunedin City Council (DCC) sets standards for verge and grass maintenance to keep streets safe, tidy, and compliant. Our lawn mowing and edging services adhere to these guidelines, ensuring appropriate mowing heights, verge care, and vegetation trimming while maintaining environmental and public safety standards.

FORUDUNEDIN Lawn Mowing & Garden Maintenance Logo - Dunedin City Council Lawn Mowing Regulations Section.

Road Verges and Berm Maintenance

Verge and berm maintenance is typically the responsibility of adjacent property owners. DCC guidance helps preserve visibility, accessibility, and the area’s overall presentation.

Edging a verge with a trimmer along a Dunedin curb for tidy, safe borders.
  • Homeowners should keep verges between the property boundary and road edge, including footpaths and grass berms, well-maintained.


  • Berm vegetation should be kept to the Council’s preferred height; non-compliant growth may be mowed by the Council up to four times per year to maintain sightlines.


  • Complaints about overgrown verges can trigger a DCC inspection, accompanied by a notice to trim or mow within 30 days.


  • If illness, age, or accessibility issues prevent verge maintenance, residents can apply for Council mowing assistance.

Weed and Vegetation Control on Public Frontages

DCC runs active vegetation-control programs on public spaces to reduce hazards and maintain amenity. This program supports safer streets and clearer sightlines while offering homeowners practical options to manage their own vegetation if they prefer a non-chemical approach.

  • Property owners may opt to join the Council’s no-spray list and manage vegetation organically.


  • DCC contractors use herbicides in accordance with strict EPA requirements, where appropriate and permitted near waterways.


  • Vegetation must not obstruct pedestrian pathways, stormwater systems, or sightlines at intersections.


  • Where herbicides aren’t suitable, mechanical or organic weed control methods may be used.

Sustainability and Reduced-Mow Zones

DCC is transitioning toward more sustainable mowing and maintenance practices to reduce emissions and enhance biodiversity. This shift supports cleaner air, quieter neighbourhoods, and healthier urban ecosystems across Dunedin.
