Burien Dispose of old planters

Homeowner’s Issue

Old planters collect water, break down in our frequent west-side rain, and attract moss and ivy in shaded corners. Burien yards often have compacted glacial soils and pockets of poor drainage on slopes toward Lake Burien or near Seahurst Park, so cracked pots and rotted wood can make standing water and root problems worse. Landlords and homeowners want durable, low-maintenance solutions that survive wet winters and brief summer sun without constant upkeep. Tenants expect tidy entryways and landlords need fast turnover options that won’t add long-term chores. Removing old planters also reduces trip hazards and pest harborage while creating space for better drainage, compost-friendly soil, or new low-water plantings. We focus on sustainable, chemical-free methods to restore curb appeal and cut maintenance time.

Our Quality Service

We safely remove planters with attention to slope, drainage, and delicate plantings. Work includes hand removal, sorting materials for recycling, and soil refresh using compost-friendly mixes that suit Burien’s wet climate. We avoid herbicides and use organic, physical methods for weed control.

What’s Included

  • Onsite assessment and safe extraction of planters.
  • Recycling and responsible disposal or green-bin hauling.
  • Optional mulch + fabric, organic weed control, or soil replacement.
  • Haul-away or green bin disposal choice.
  • Optional installation advice for low-maintenance replacements.

Before & After / Expectations

After removal we recommend:

  • Refreshing soil with compost and improving drainage where pooled water occurred.
  • Mulch to suppress moss and weeds; check for ivy regrowth at least twice a season.
  • Light summer watering for newly installed plants, then shift to minimal irrigation.

FAQs

  • How long does a job take? Most small jobs finish in 1–3 hours; larger cleanups take a half day.
  • Do you use chemicals? No — we use hand removal, compost, mulch, and organic controls only.
  • What about steep or tight access? We plan equipment and manpower to avoid damage and keep costs clear.
