Capitol Hill Rental Yard Clean-Ups Services

Moving can be chaotic, but your Capitol Hill rental yard should shine, not stress you out. We specialize in making your property photo-ready, show-ready, and inspection-ready quickly and efficiently. Our expert team handles everything: cutting, trimming, edging, weeding, mulching, and hauling away debris. Focus on what matters—listing your property and ensuring a smooth transition.


What’s the Problem?

Have you ever faced a yard that resembles a jungle? Here are some common issues we resolve:

  • Tenant move-out left behind overgrown grass, rampant weeds, and litter.
  • Hedges obstructing walkways and house numbers, risking city citations.
  • Flower beds that lack edges, mulch, and are overrun with weeds, making them unsuitable for listing photos.
  • The need for before and after photos to aid in deposit returns.

What We Do (Tailored for Rentals & Timelines)

Our clean-up services are designed for efficiency, ensuring your property looks its best:

  • Lawn Reset — We trim grass to a manageable height and create clean edges along walkways and driveways.
  • Weed-Out & Bed Recovery — We remove weeds and cultivate the soil before applying a 2–3” layer of mulch to prevent future growth.
  • Shrub/Hedge Trim — We expertly trim hedges, enhancing aesthetics and access to windows and pathways.
  • Leaf, Needle & Debris Removal — We clear all debris from corners, gravel seams, and stair treads.
  • Hardscape Tidy — We blow and sweep patios and walkways, addressing any moss or algae issues.
  • Haul-Off — We take away green waste, ensuring no debris is left behind.
  • Documentation — You’ll receive time-stamped before and after photos along with a detailed invoice.
  • Access Made Easy — We coordinate access via text-on-arrival, lockbox codes, or direct communication with tenants.

Remember: one heroic clean-up day won’t fix years of neglect. We’ll tackle the initial mess and set you up for ongoing maintenance so it stays manageable.


Add-Ons (Customized for Your Needs)

Need a little extra? Consider these add-on services:

  • Sod Patch or Overseeding for thinning areas in the front yard.
  • Gravel Top-Up for muddy spots or side yards.
  • Paver Joint Re-Sand to refill washed-away sand.
  • Bin Overflow Pickup (yard waste only); we can coordinate junk hauling if needed.

Our Annual Maintenance Plan

Keep your Capitol Hill property pristine year-round with our comprehensive maintenance plan, which includes:

  • Weed Suppression — Regular hand-weeding and targeted pre-emergent applications.
  • Hedge Line Maintenance — Light trims to maintain desired height and width.
  • Mulch Management — Keeping a 2–3” layer of mulch for effective weed suppression.
  • Lawn Care — Regular mowing, edging, moss checks, and seasonal aeration as necessary.
  • Curb-Appeal Touch-Ups — Sweeping entries and clearing leaves before showings or inspections.

We’re your low-maintenance landscaping solution. Less work between visits means happier tenants and fewer problems.


Service Cadences

Choose a schedule that fits your needs:

  • Turnover Blitz (24–72 hrs) — Get your property ready for photos and inspections in no time!
  • Bi-Monthly — Perfect for rentals with quick growth or tree litter.
  • Quarterly — Comprehensive spring and fall clean-ups, plus two tune-ups.

(Heavy overgrowth? Start with monthly visits for 60–90 days, then taper off.)


What Annual Maintenance Includes

Our annual maintenance covers:

  • Bed edge re-cuts and weed control.
  • Sides-and-top hedge trims to keep lines sharp.
  • Regular mulch top-ups and lawn edging.
  • Seasonal shrub shaping and light reductions.
  • Debris haul-off every visit, plus photo updates.

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

Keep your property looking its best with these benefits:

  • Consistent Curb Appeal — Attract tenants faster with a well-maintained exterior.
  • Lower Owner Costs — Regular maintenance is more cost-effective than extensive reclamation work.
  • Happier Tenants — Provide safer, cleaner paths and entries.
  • Fewer Notices — Prevent weed and hedge encroachments from piling up.

  1. Free Estimate — Send us photos or schedule a walkthrough for clear, upfront pricing.
  2. Schedule — We’ll coordinate with tenants or manage access through lockboxes; we can handle tight spaces!
  3. Service Day — Our team will mow, trim, edge, weed, mulch, tidy up, and haul off debris.
