Bellevue Autumn Yard Clean-Up Services

Ah, fall in Bellevue! The crisp air, the vibrant foliage, and—let’s be honest—the endless cascade of leaves, cedar needles, and rain. While you’re cozying up with a pumpkin spice latte, let us tackle the mess that can turn your beautiful yard into a slippery, cluttered mess. Our goal? To leave your property neat, tidy, and ready for winter!


What’s the Challenge?

  • Leaf drifts and cedar needles can smother your lawn and garden beds, depriving them of air and light.
  • Slick walkways and steps (thanks to algae and tannins) can turn your property into a safety hazard.
  • Flattened beds lead to diminished curb appeal, with weeds popping up and mulch wearing thin.
  • Wayward perennials and shrubs can become unruly, making your yard look unkempt just in time for holiday visitors.

Our Autumn Clean-Up Strategy (Designed for Bellevue)

  • Leaf & Needle Removal: We’ll clear your lawns, beds, gravel seams, and hardscapes, ensuring a clean slate for winter.
  • Bed Edge Reset: We’ll redefine your garden beds with crisp, deep edges, perfect for winterizing your garden.
  • Perennial Cutbacks: We’ll trim back floppers, leaving beneficial habitat stems 12–18” tall to encourage healthy regrowth.
  • Shrub Shaping: We’ll tidy up shrubs for better aesthetics and accessibility, keeping walkways and windows clear for those holiday visitors.
  • Mulch Refresh (2–3”): We’ll pull mulch back from trunks and siding, locking in moisture and preventing those pesky weeds from taking over.
  • Lawn Winterizing: We’ll give your lawn a final mow and edge, check for moss, and can even apply fall fertilizer if needed.
  • Storm Preparation: We’ll ensure your curb lines and inlets are clear, preventing water buildup and flooding.

We believe in responsible cleanup—no leaves will be blown into the street or hidden in shrub wells. We load, haul, and leave your yard spotless.


Optional Add-Ons

  • Gutter & Downspout Outlet Check (ground-level only)
  • Paver Joint Re-Sanding after heavy blowouts
  • Pressure Washing for slick entry steps and walkways
  • Gravel Top-Up for muddy side yards and bin areas

Volume & Timing (So You Know What to Expect)

  • 1 cubic yard = 27 cu ft (approximately a 3’ × 3’ × 3’ cube)
  • A 12’ × 20’ lawn with a 2” leaf layer is about 15 cu ft (~½ yd³)
  • If you have Bigleaf Maple trees, plan for two passes spaced 2–3 weeks apart for optimal cleanup.

Our Annual Maintenance Plan

  • Quarterly Visits: Enjoy spring and fall deep cleans plus two tune-ups to keep weeds and debris at bay.
  • Bi-Monthly Visits: Perfect for properties with heavy tree litter or dense hedge growth.
  • Event Add-Ons: Need a spruce-up before the holidays or special events? We’ve got you covered!

We pride ourselves on being a low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our mission is to minimize the hassle for you between visits.


What’s Included in Our Annual Maintenance

  • Seasonal leaf and needle clears to prevent clogs before they happen
  • Bed edge re-cuts and mulch management (holding 2–3”)
  • Timely shrub shaping for plant health and improved sightlines
  • Lawn edges, quick health checks, and simple moss prevention
  • Complete debris haul-off—we leave no green waste behind!

Why Annual Maintenance is Essential

  • Safer, Cleaner Hardscapes: Enjoy fewer slick spots and unsightly stains on your walkways.
  • Healthier Plants: Proper mulch and timing lead to fewer winter losses and a thriving garden come spring.
  • Reduced Weed Pressure: Covered beds starve the seed bank, keeping weeds at bay and your garden looking great.
  • Enhanced Curb Appeal: Tidy lines elevate your property’s look all winter long, impressing holiday guests!
