Leaf cleanup in Virginia

Leaves off the lawn, out of the beds and away from the fence, then hauled off.

Fall leaves

Leaves come down from October into December. We blow and rake them off the lawn before they mat down, clear the beds and corners where they pile up, and load them out. Yards with big maples or oaks often need two or three fall visits.

Early spring

Leaves that blew in over winter sit wet on the lawn and in the beds. An early spring visit clears them so the grass can green up evenly.

Where it goes

Everything we collect is loaded up and hauled away. Nothing is left in piles at the curb unless you ask for that.

Questions

Questions about leaf cleanup

Can you mulch light leaves into the lawn?

On a thin layer of leaves, yes, with the mower. Heavy layers still need to come off.

When should I get on the fall list?

September is a good time. Fall fills up quickly, and an early spot helps us plan visits as the leaves drop.

Do you clean gutters?

No. We work on the ground: lawns, beds, walks and fence lines.
