Broadmeadows is the major activity hub of Melbourne's north, with the shopping precinct, civic offices and transport interchange at its centre. It mixes established post-war residential streets, medium-density infill and a concentration of commercial and government property.
What we know about Broadmeadows gardens
- The mix of houses, units and commercial premises makes Broadmeadows a core area for both home garden services and scheduled commercial grounds maintenance.
- Post-war blocks here often carry mature front hedges and a lawn that has been in place for decades — both respond well to a proper renovation rather than another hard cut.
- Established street trees and public frontages mean autumn leaf clearing is a recurring seasonal job across the suburb.

About Broadmeadows
Broadmeadows has moved more than once. The first township, laid out in 1850 around Ardlie Street, is the area now called Westmeadows. When the railway station opened two kilometres to the east in 1872 the centre slowly followed it, and new civic offices were finally built near the station in 1928. Early in the First World War the district held Victoria's main camp for AIF recruits, until wet weather and poor drainage made so many men sick that the main camp moved to Seymour in 1915. Much of the housing seen today traces back to 1949, when the Housing Commission began a 2,226 hectare estate across the area. Broadmeadows is now the council seat of the City of Hume and a sub-regional centre for Melbourne's north.
Soil, water and weather
Those 1915 camp records are a fair warning about Broadmeadows ground. The suburb sits on the basalt plain, and the heavy clay under it drains slowly, so lawns and beds on flat blocks can stay wet for days after winter rain. The same clay shrinks in a dry summer and opens cracks along paths and fence lines. Melbourne Airport, the nearest Bureau of Meteorology station, records its windiest weather from August to October, which dries out exposed front yards faster than most people expect in spring. Lawns here do best with a higher cut through summer, aeration where foot traffic has packed the soil, and beds kept mulched so the clay surface does not crust over.
Jobs that suit Broadmeadows gardens
- Commercial maintenance: As the council seat and a sub-regional centre, Broadmeadows has a large share of shopfronts, offices and community buildings among its houses. Commercial grounds maintenance is quoted per site and scheduled so lawns, beds and edges look the same on every visit.
- Garden clean ups: A garden clean up suits a rental changing hands or a home being readied for sale. Overgrowth is cut back, beds are weeded and edged, and all the green waste leaves the property on the day. Clean ups are quoted per job.
- Lawn mowing: Lawn mowing starts from about $45 for a small lawn, and a typical family block front and back sits around $50 to $65 on our pricing guide. Weekly or fortnightly customers get the best per-visit rate and stay ahead of the spring growth.

Why is the old Broadmeadows township now called Westmeadows?
