Burien Fall Cleanup
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien properties face a mix of heavy autumn rain, cool cloudy stretches, and pockets of afternoon sun near exposed slopes. Many yards have compacted soils and clay pockets that hold water, while mature maples and alders drop dense layers of leaves that smother lawns and shelter moss. Sloped lots and coastal breezes can push debris into gutters and low spots, causing clogged drains and soggy beds. Landlords and homeowners often want a low‑maintenance yard that looks tidy for tenants or curb appeal for resale, while avoiding repeated weekend chores. Our sustainable, manual-first approach focuses on composting, mulching, and selective pruning to reduce future work and improve drainage. We avoid chemical herbicides and emphasize organic techniques that suit Burien’s microclimates, whether you’re near Seahurst Park trails or closer to Normandy Park neighborhoods. The goal is safety, neatness, and long‑lasting results with fewer follow-up visits.
Our Quality Service
We assess your site, then remove leaves, prune perennials, and clear drains with attention to slope and clay soils. Work is done with hand tools and electric equipment where appropriate to limit disturbance and protect soil structure. Benefits include improved safety, better curb appeal, lower maintenance needs, and longer-lasting plant health.
What’s Included
- Leaf removal and lawn clearing

Before & After / Expectations
After service expect a neater, drier yard with fewer moss patches and clearer drainage lines. For the first season, water young plants only during dry spells, hand-pull weeds early, and monitor ivy regrowth on fences and slopes. Mulch helps reduce weeds and retains moisture through winter.
FAQs
- How long does a job take? Most standard yards are one visit; larger or sloped properties may need extra time.
- Do you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, non‑chemical methods only.
- Can you haul everything away? Yes, choose full haul-away or we’ll prepare compostable piles for green‑bin pickup.
- Do you need access to water or power? Access helps but isn’t required for basic cleanups.
