Why Seasonal Yard Cleanup & Detail Maintenance Services are Essential

A nice home with a clean yard.

Spring might get all the attention for yard cleanups, but end-of-season services are just as important! At ACA Landscape, we know that leaves and debris on your lawn or garden beds can smother grass, promote disease, and attract unwanted pests. That's why our seasonal yard cleanup services ensure your lawn stays healthy during the dormant season, ready to return in full force in the spring.

5. When is the best time to schedule a yard cleanup service?
Yard cleanup is essential in both spring and fall. It's crucial to remove winter debris in spring and prepare for the growing season.

A standard yard cleanup typically includes removing leaves and debris from lawns and planting beds, trimming shrubs, cutting back perennial plants and ornamental grasses (as appropriate for the species), and a final mow, trim, and edge. Services can be customized based on your property's specific needs.

12. How often should I have my yard cleaned up?
It's generally recommended that your yard be professionally cleaned twice a year—once in spring to prepare for the growing season and once in fall to remove leaves and debris before winter. However, depending on the number of trees and vegetation, some properties might require more frequent cleanups. If you really want to take back your time, request a quote for our Total Freedom - Total Care Maintenance package.

13. Why is removing leaves and debris from my yard important?
Leaving excess organic material on your lawn or planting beds can smother grass and plants, blocking them from getting necessary sunlight and air circulation. This can lead to bare patches, disease, and even plant death. Debris also provides a home for pests and can encourage mold and fungus growth.

14. How long does a typical yard cleanup take?
The time required for a yard cleanup varies based on the size of your property and the amount of work needed. An average cleanup for a moderately sized residential yard may take 4 or 6 man hours, while larger or heavily wooded properties might take a full day or more.

15. How much does professional yard cleanup cost?
Yard cleanup is generally billed per man-hour, so you only pay for the time the crew spends on your property. For the most current price, check out our online scheduler
