Burien Old Holiday Decoration Disposal
Homeowner’s Issue
Winter in Burien brings wet, mild weather that accelerates wear on outdoor holiday decorations. Rain, wind off the Sound, and the shady, moss-prone conditions common near Seahurst Park and the Highline corridor mean lights, wreaths, and artificial greenery deteriorate quickly and can trap moisture against siding or gutters. Many homeowners and landlords want quick removal after the season, but worry about messy piles, drainage clogs, and creating trip hazards on sloped driveways or narrow rental yards.
Rental turnovers and curb appeal are big concerns here — a tidy exterior helps properties lease faster and stay safe through heavy winter rains. Soil in parts of Burien can be compacted or clay-rich, so hauling out large artificial trees or bulky displays requires care to avoid rutting and damage. Owners often prefer sustainable disposal: donate reusable pieces, recycle metals and plastics, compost organic material, and use the city green bin when possible. Our approach focuses on fast, low-impact removal that prevents drainage issues, restores curb appeal, and prepares landscapes for spring maintenance without relying on chemical methods.

Before & After / Expectations
After service expect a tidy yard with trimmings and debris removed and items tagged for donation or recycling. Mulch or soil disturbance will be minimized; any ruts from heavy items will be noted and light-graded. For ongoing upkeep, water new plantings lightly in dry spells, clear gutters regularly, and watch for moss in shaded beds. Check wreaths and garlands in spring for regrowth issues and remove invasive ivy promptly by hand or mechanical means to prevent reestablishment.
