Commercial Leaf litter bagging & disposal
Homeowner’s Issue
Commercial properties in Seattle face a predictable rhythm: heavy fall rain, compacted loamy-clay soils, and a steady stream of leaves from maples, alders, and ornamental cherries. In low spots and on slopes, wet leaves form slick mats that clog storm drains and gutters, create slip hazards on sidewalks, and smother lawns until moss and weeds take over. Sun exposure varies block-to-block — southerly exposures dry quickly, while shaded courtyards and north-facing slopes stay damp and encourage moss and ivy spread. HOA rules and commercial frontage standards often demand tidy curbs and clear walkways, and property managers need repeatable, documented service to satisfy tenants and inspectors. Add compacted soil and drainage channels around buildings, and you’ve got the common cocktail of curb-appeal headaches and safety liabilities we clean up across Commercial, including nearby Delridge and Roxhill Park corridors.
Our Quality Service
We use sustainable, non-chemical methods tailored to Commercial sites. Our crew assesses slopes, gutter flow, and soil compaction before work, then rakes, blows, and mulches leaves on-site where appropriate. Leaves are bagged in biodegradable sacks or taken to green-bin or compost facilities depending on property rules. We prioritize improved drainage and reduced slip risk, and recommend mulching or targeted composting to feed tired soils rather than hauling everything away. The result: safer walkways, better curb appeal, lower ongoing maintenance, and long-lasting, natural soil improvement.
What’s Included
- Full leaf collection from lawns, beds, pathways, and hardscapes
- Biodegradable bagging or green-bin/compost hauling
- Gutter debris spot-check and basic clean-out (optional full gutter service)
- Final rake/blow to clear sidewalks and curblines
- Disposal at compost or approved facilities
Optional upgrades:
- Mulch + fabric installation for beds
- Organic weed control and moss management (no herbicides)
- Haul-away vs. green bin composting choice
- Seasonal planting or gravel refresh for improved drainage
Before & After / Expectations
Expect some noise from blowers and trucks on service day and a short window of leaf debris before final cleanup. We’ll need clear access to curbside or dump areas and a place to stage bagged material. After work, yards will look swept and walkways safe — in shaded, moss-prone areas regrowth may appear faster and benefit from a follow-up visit. Care tips: clear gutters regularly, aerate compacted lawn patches in spring, thin heavy leaf layers into mulch rather than letting them sit, and water deeply during dry spells to keep stressed turf resilient.
FAQs
- How long does a typical job take? Small commercial frontages can be done in a few hours; larger lots or multi-building sites may take a day or two.
- Do you use herbicides? No — we use sustainable, non-chemical methods only.
- Can you work around HOA or building schedules? Yes; we coordinate to meet inspection windows and peak tenant hours.
