As summer turns into fall, the leaves start gathering on the ground. For your convenience, we automatically transition from regular weekly lawn mowing service to leaf cleanup services beginning in November. Let us take care of both services for you and your lawn will continue looking great going into fall!
The fall leaf cleanup service begins with a visit in early November, and we will visit two more times with approximately two weeks between visits to best manage leaf collection.
During each visit our crew will determine which cleanup method will offer you the best value and results. We will blow the leaves to the curbside or mulch them into the turf as appropriate. If we blow the leaves to the curb, we will either leave them for your municipality pickup or we will schedule our vacuum crew to remove them the following day (if municipality pickup is unavailable). If you are eligible for municipality pickups but prefer that we haul the leaves away, let us know in advance and we can schedule accordingly.
On the final visit our crew may prune ornamental grasses at their discretion to keep your landscape neat and tidy. However, if you would like us to skip this pruning, please let us know in advance and we will communicate this to our crew! If you want to ensure that the crew prunes your ornamental grasses, please let us know and we can make a note for the crew to take care of it during your final visit. To receive the fastest and most reliable priority service please enroll in our full program!
While the weather is good, we will work hard to perform cleanups on time, but if the conditions render us unable to continue the service at our regular time we will resume as quickly as possible when the weather clears. We try to complete all of our cleanups by the end of December, but if the weather has other plans, then we will continue into the new year to complete the service.
The West County Landscaping team works hard to keep your landscape beautiful in all seasons of the year, and fall is no exception. We provide high quality and affordable service, so the leaf cleanup service is billed at $70 per person per hour plus our disposal fee (if you use our disposal service) with a price of $6.50 per minute of vacuum time. This may sound expensive, but don’t worry, our vacuum is very fast!
