Burien Safe hauling

Homeowner’s Issue

Burien yards face a specific set of challenges — frequent Pacific Northwest rain, clay and compacted soils, shaded spots under big maples, and steep driveways or small slope transitions that collect debris. Those conditions mean leaves and branches hold moisture longer, moss and ivy return quickly, and drainage areas clog unless debris is removed carefully. Landlords and homeowners want tidy, safe spaces that reduce tenant complaints and costly repairs, while keeping ongoing maintenance low.

A smart hauling plan here focuses on erosion control on slopes, clearing culverts and gutters, and removing organic waste without spreading soil or mud. Seahurst Park and nearby Highline neighborhoods show how wind and tides can shift material; Burien properties need hauling that protects storm drains and preserves topsoil. Sustainable methods like hand-removal, composting, and green-bin disposal reduce impact and keep yards healthy between services.

Our Quality Service

We assess the site with an eye for local rain patterns, slope stability, and soil compaction. Work is done to reduce runoff, protect roots, and leave a neat, safe space for residents and visitors.

Benefits include improved safety, better curb appeal, reduced pest habitat, and lower maintenance needs over time. All work follows sustainable practices — no herbicides — favoring compost, mulch, and manual controls.

What’s Included

  • Debris pickup: branches, leaves, spent plants, and old mulch.
  • Site cleanup: sweeping, edge trimming, and clearing drains.
  • Haul-away options: green bin delivery or chosen disposal site.
  • Basic weed removal and light pruning.

Optional upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric installation.
  • Organic weed control and hand-pulling plans.
  • Gravel for erosion control or pathway refresh.
  • Haul-away vs. green bin/compostable disposal.

Before & After / Expectations

After work expect cleaner drains, clearer slopes, and reduced moss buildup. For best results, water new plantings lightly, rake leaves in fall, and hand-pull ivy regrowth as soon as you see it. We recommend mulching beds to suppress weeds and using green-bin composting to close the loop.

FAQs

  • How long does a typical job take? Most residential cleanups take 2–6 hours depending on yard size and access.
  • Do you need full access? We prefer driveway or side-yard access; narrow entries may add time but are manageable.
  • Will you use chemicals? No — we use sustainable, non-chemical methods only.
  • How often should rentals get service? Every 1–3 months depending on tenant turnover and local tree cover.
