South Center Overgrown Yard Clean-Up Services

Has it been ages since you last spotted your fence? Is that grass tickling your ankles? Is that pesky blackberry vine giving you a cheeky grin from the property line? Don’t worry! We specialize in reclaiming yards quickly and efficiently—we’ll clear the clutter, define those edges, and transform your outdoor space into a landscape you can be proud of.


What’s the Problem?

  • Invasive plants like blackberry and ivy overtaking your fences, sheds, and walkways in South Center’s unique climate
  • Garden beds buried under weeds; no defined edges, mulch long gone, and shrubs looking wild
  • Knee-high grass hiding hazards like rocks, toys, and wires that can damage your mower
  • Blocked sightlines, hidden address numbers, and looming city notices or unflattering sale photos

What We Do on a Clean-Up (the real work)

  • Brush & vine removal — We cut, pull, and even root-chase those pesky blackberry and ivy vines
  • Selective pruning — Rescuing your shrubs and trees from vine overload and lifting branches for better visibility
  • Bed re-cut — Carving out clean bed edges to redefine the lines of your garden
  • Weed-out + mulch — Clearing out top growth and laying down 2–3” of mulch to prevent weeds from popping back
  • Lawn reset — High cuts to a safe height, debris raked away, and edges defined around paths and driveways
  • Haul-off — We take away all green waste so you’re left with a clean slate; no “green confetti” left behind
  • Safety & access — Opening gates and paths while trimming back to fences and utilities (we always call 811 before digging)

Here’s the deal: one heroic day won’t erase a five-year seed bank. We’ll tackle the initial chaos and set you up for success so it stays under control.


Our Annual Maintenance Plan

  • Weed suppression — Regular hand-weeding and targeted pre-emergent applications where needed
  • Invasive patrol — Spot treatments for blackberry and ivy before they can re-root
  • Mulch management — Ensuring that 2–3” of mulch coverage is maintained; topping up thin areas
  • Seasonal pruning — Providing structure and shape without any harsh cuts
  • Edges & lines — Keeping beds re-edged and paths/lawns looking sharp

We’re your low-maintenance landscaping crew. Our mission is to minimize problems between visits, giving you more time to enjoy your outdoor space.


Service Cadences

  • Quarterly — Includes spring and fall deep cleans along with two tune-ups
  • Bi-Monthly — Perfect for areas with heavy growth, tree litter, or fast-growing invasives

(For severe overgrowth, we recommend starting monthly for 60–90 days, then tapering to a regular schedule.)


What Annual Maintenance Includes

  • Redefined bed edges and debris removal
  • Targeted invasive plant knock-backs (blackberry, ivy, morning glory)
  • Mulch replenishment where it’s thin or disturbed
  • Seasonal shrub shaping and removal of deadwood
  • Lawn edging and trimming with a quick health assessment

Why Annual Maintenance Matters

  • Prevents costly recovery — Small, regular efforts beat expensive clean-ups down the line
  • Lower weed pressure — Mulch combined with timing results in fewer seedlings and less labor for you
  • Safer, cleaner access — Clear paths, steps, and sightlines for your peace of mind
  • Improved curb appeal — Neat lines look great in person and in photos

How It Works

  1. Free Estimate — Send us photos or schedule a quick walkthrough; we believe in clear, upfront pricing
  2. Plan the pass — Together, we’ll prioritize what needs to go and what stays to enhance your yard
  3. Clean-Up Day — We’ll cut, pull, prune, edge, mulch, and haul everything away
