"The key to building lasting relationships with customers is to be viewed as a valuable team player, not just another landscape vendor. Anyone can mow grass and trim shrubs…our customers need to know that we provide more value-added services… an arborist for tree maintenance, horticulturist who specializes in southwestern ecosystems, irrigation water specialist; and an installation team who can transform an outdated landscape into an attractive asset. We also must be pro-active in communication with our customers so they are aware of everything we do to make their properties look exceptional. When we provide this level of involvement, our customers will never have a reason to go anywhere else."

AME Southwest Inc.
Built on Customer Referrals
AME Southwest recognizes that one of the most critical assets a landscaping management company has are its employees. That’s why we search diligently to find quality people and then train them to provide a significantly higher quality service. Our customers tell us they notice our higher level of attention and appreciate the extra steps we take to exceed their expectations. This focus of achieving a measurable difference in everything we do has led to many referrals that has enabled AME Southwest become one of the premier landscaping companies in the Southwest.

Because of customer referrals and steady growth for 35 years, AME Southwest provides landscaping services to some of the most sophisticated and demanding customers in the southwest, including Class-A high rise corporate centers, HOA’s and condominium properties, office parks, strip malls and regional malls, outdoor lifestyle malls, apartments, municipalities, office complexes, medical and dental properties, gated communities, public buildings, hotel and motel properties, as well as large industrial and warehouse properties.
AME Southwest also provides landscaping management services to commercial office buildings and industrial parks owned by REIT’s (real estate investment trusts). Much of the perceived value in these properties is based on the appearance of the landscaping which must remain in pristine condition to meet investor criteria, attract tenants and pay dividends to the investor group. Landscaping companies who work with REIT’s, don’t have a second chance to make a first impression.
