Burien Leaf litter bagging & disposal

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien yards face wet winters, salty air near the Sound, and compacted clay in some spots that hold moisture and encourage moss. Fallen leaves that sit on lawns and paths turn slippery fast, block storm grates, and smother grass, so regular removal matters for safety and plant health.
Many houses in the Seahurst Park corridor and older neighborhoods around White Center have mature maples and big-leaf maples that drop heavy litter in fall; renters and landlords often want a low-maintenance, sustainable plan that reduces repeat work.
Owners also balance goals like curb appeal for tenants, preventing clogged drainage on slopes, and keeping gutters and alleys clear — all without herbicides. We focus on composting, mulching, and proper disposal to keep yards tidy and resilient.

Our Quality Service

We assess access, slope, and soil conditions, then remove leaf litter using hand rakes, blowers set to low-dust mode, and mulchers.
Leaves are bagged or mulched on-site, with priority given to composting or municipal yard-waste streams to close the loop sustainably.
Benefits include safer walkways, improved curb appeal, less ongoing maintenance, and longer-lasting lawn health.

What’s Included

  • Property assessment and quick photo estimate option
  • Raking, blowing, and mulching of leaves on lawns and beds
  • Bagging into biodegradable or yard-waste bags
  • Transport to compost or approved disposal facilities
  • Basic gutter clearing (optional upgrade)
  • Leaf mulch spread or removal, per your preference

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + fabric for new beds
  • Organic, non-chemical weed control and hand-weeding
  • Haul-away to a compost facility vs. placing in green bin

Before & After / Expectations

Expect tidy walkways and reduced slip hazards immediately after service, with beds left neat and edges defined.
Mulched leaves break down to feed soil; if we haul away, we leave a care note about replacing mulch or topdressing.
Simple care tips: water established plants only during dry spells, pull early weed seedlings, and watch shady, compacted zones for moss — light aeration and leaf-free turf in spring help recovery.

FAQs

  • How long does a visit take?
    Most single-family properties finish in 1–3 hours depending on trees, slope, and access.

  • Can you compost on-site?
    Yes — we can chip and mulch leaves for beds or haul to compost facilities that accept yard waste.

  • Do you use chemicals?
    No — we use only sustainable practices (mulching, hand-weeding, organic options) and avoid herbicides.

  • What about narrow alleys or stairs?
    We plan for access during the assessment and bring tools and containers that work on steep or tight spots.
