Issaquah Autumn Yard Clean-Up Services
Ah, fall in Issaquah! With the crisp air, stunning foliage, and—let’s face it—the relentless shower of leaves, cedar needles, and rain, it’s a beautiful time of year, but it can also mean a lot of yard work. While you sip on that cozy pumpkin spice latte, let our team handle the clutter and chaos that can turn your picturesque yard into a slippery mess. Our mission? To leave your property pristine, tidy, and ready to weather the winter months ahead!
What’s the Challenge?
- Leaf drifts and cedar needles can suffocate your lawn and garden beds, robbing them of essential air and sunlight.
- Slick walkways and steps (thanks to algae and tannins) can make your property a safety concern.
- Flattened garden beds diminish curb appeal, allowing weeds to pop up and mulch to deplete.
- Overgrown perennials and shrubs can become unruly, leading to an untidy appearance just when you want your yard to shine for holiday guests.
Our Autumn Clean-Up Strategy (Perfect for Issaquah)
- Leaf & Needle Removal: We’ll meticulously clear your lawns, garden beds, gravel seams, and hardscapes, ensuring your outdoor space is spotless.
- Bed Edge Reset: We’ll redefine your garden beds with crisp, deep edges, preparing them for winter.
- Perennial Cutbacks: We’ll trim back overgrown plants, leaving helpful stems 12–18” tall for habitat.
- Shrub Shaping: We’ll tidy up your shrubs for a neat look and easy access, keeping walkways and windows clear.
- Mulch Refresh (2–3”): Our team will pull mulch back from trunks and siding, conserving moisture and preventing weeds.
- Lawn Winterizing: We’ll give your lawn one last proper mow, check for moss, and even apply fall fertilizer if needed.
- Storm Preparation: We’ll clear curb lines and inlets, ensuring that water can flow freely and preventing unwanted buildup.
We believe in responsible cleanup—no leaves will be blown into the street or hidden in shrub wells. We load up, haul away, and leave your yard immaculate.
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 (What to Expect)
- 1 cubic yard = 27 cu ft (approximately a cube of 3’ × 3’ × 3’)
- 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 the best results.
