Burien Pick Up Sticks & Branches
Homeowner’s Issue
Burien yards see a lot of organic debris — wind, heavy rain, and the big maple and alder stands near Seahurst Park drop sticks all year. Our glacial soils and occasional slopes mean debris can trap moisture, encourage moss, and block drainage on low spots. Renters, landlords, and busy homeowners often want quick, sustainable cleanups that reduce slip hazards, discourage pests, and keep curb appeal high without chemical inputs. Typical goals are tidy, low-maintenance beds, safer paths, and compost-ready piles that won’t add work later. We focus on practical fixes that respect Burien weather: catching winter windfall early, reducing moss-friendly cover, and improving airflow on shady north-facing corners.
Our Quality Service
We pick up sticks, collect small branches, and clean up the organic detritus that holds moisture against foundations. Work is done by hand and light tools to protect lawns and slopes. We prioritize composting, green-bin disposal, and on-site mulching rather than any pesticides or synthetic herbicides. Benefits: safer yards, better curb appeal, reduced maintenance, and longer-lasting results tailored to wet, shady Pacific Northwest conditions.

Before & After / Expectations
After service expect a cleaner surface, improved drainage in problem spots, and fewer places for moss and ivy to take hold. Care tips:
