Property Cleanups

Spring and fall cleanups that haul every leaf away.

We don't mulch leaves into the lawn (which kills the grass underneath) and we don't leave bagged piles at the curb. Every leaf, stick, and pinecone goes in the truck.

Process

How we do it

  1. 1.

    Schedule windows

    Spring cleanups run mid-March to mid-April. Fall cleanups run from mid-October until snow flies, usually two visits to handle leaf drop in waves.

  2. 2.

    Crew + equipment

    We use backpack blowers, push blowers for big lawns, and a vacuum/shred trailer to compact leaves before they go to the compost facility.

  3. 3.

    No piles, no extra trips

    Everything leaves in our truck the same day. You don't need to bag, drag, or call for a pickup.

Seasonal timing

When this service runs

Spring: mid-March to mid-April, after the snow is fully gone. Fall: mid-October through late November, often in two visits to keep up with the leaf drop.

Property Cleanups: common questions

  • Do I need to be home?

    No. Most cleanup customers aren't home. We walk the property, do the work, send a quick photo when we're done.

  • How long does a typical cleanup take?

    A quarter-acre lot with mature trees is usually 90 minutes to 2 hours in fall. Spring cleanups go faster, closer to an hour for the same property.

  • Will you also clean the gutters?

    Yes. We'll do gutters as an add-on while we're already there for fall cleanup, which saves you a separate visit.

  • What about the beds? Will weeds be pulled?

    Standard cleanup is debris removal. Weeding the beds is a separate service we can quote, or we can do a one-time bed reset that includes weeding, edging, and a fresh layer of mulch.

What clients say

Five stars from real customers.

  • Alex actually takes the time to do the job right, which I appreciate. From the first day Alex has been professional and reliable. He treats my yard with care even down to the edging around the fences. The yard looks great with stripes going both ways, and an even uniform cut. Alex takes pride in his work, which seems hard to find these days.

  • We had Alex do some work for us this fall. He did a great job getting rid of the weeds in our rock beds, there were a lot of them. He also trimmed some trees and bushes. He is courteous. He cleaned up and hauled away all the debris. His rates are reasonable as well. So many lawn companies never get back to do the job after you get an estimate. Alex came back two days after he came to see what we wanted done. I would recommend him for whatever lawn and landscaping you want done. I’ve already recommended him to my family and friends.
