Ballard Fall Yard Clean-Up Services

Fast, Friendly, Eco-Friendly

As the leaves begin to drop and the rainy season approaches in Ballard, it’s time to give your yard the attention it deserves! Here at Neat & Tidy, we specialize in preparing your outdoor space for the fall and winter months.


What’s the Problem?

  • Leaf mats & pine needles can smother your grass and flower beds, reducing their health.
  • Invasive overgrowth like blackberry, ivy, and bamboo can quickly take over your garden.
  • Slippery walks & clogged drains create hazards for you and your guests.
  • Overgrown hedges and tree limbs may block sightlines or rub against your home.
  • Full green bins and tight alleyways can leave you with no time for yard work!

Our Fall Clean-Up Solution

Our process is designed to be comprehensive and efficient, ensuring your yard looks its best:

  1. Quick Assessment & Plan: We can do this on-site or through your photos/videos.
  2. Clear & Sort: We start by removing leaves, needles, brush, and storm debris.
  3. Root-Level Weeding: Our team targets crowns and rhizomes to slow regrowth of invasive plants.
  4. Selective Fall Pruning: We’ll shape your shrubs and trees for health and clearance.
  5. Define Edges & Re-shape Beds: Enjoy crisp lines that enhance your curb appeal.
  6. Mulch or Gravel Top-Up (Optional): We can apply a 2–3” layer for weed suppression and moisture control.
  7. Lawn Refresh (Optional): Aeration, mowing, and edging for better drainage and root growth.
  8. Eco-Friendly Haul-Off: All debris is composted or recycled at approved facilities.
  9. Final Clean: We’ll blow off patios, walks, and driveways to give everything a polished look.

As a low-maintenance landscaping team, we offer simple upgrades to keep your yard tidy throughout the winter, saving you time and money!


What Fall Yard Clean-Up Includes

  • Leaf & Needle Removal: We’ll clear lawns, beds, and hardscapes, especially beneficial in dense neighborhoods like Ballard.
  • Invasive Control: We’ll handle blackberry, English ivy, bamboo, morning glory, and more, preventing future infestations.
  • Pruning & Brush Clearing: Keep hedges and small trees in check for safety and aesthetics.
  • Bed Reset: We’ll edge, reshape, and clean up soil surfaces for a fresh look.
  • Mulch or Gravel (Optional): We provide even coverage with tidy borders for effective moisture retention.
  • Lawn Options (Optional): We can aerate, mow, and edge your lawn to improve health and appearance.
  • Debris Handling: We take care of loading, haul-away, and responsible disposal.

Big or small, wet or dry — if it’s green waste, it’s gone!
(Note: Concrete, lumber, or hazardous materials are priced and handled separately.)
