White Center Yard Waste Removal — Full yard waste removal

Homeowner’s Issue

White Center yards face a distinct Seattle pattern: frequent rain, shady lots under maples and Douglas-firs, and heavy, glacial-till soils that compact and hold water. That means moss and persistent weeds, clogged drains at low spots, and mud on slopes after storms. Leaves and branches pile up quickly in the fall and winter, and decomposing debris worsens drainage and invites slugs and rodents.

Many homes here sit on small, sloped lots where runoff runs into gutters or downhill neighbors, so proper removal and hauling matter more than a quick rake. HOA rules in nearby areas often expect tidy curbs and weed-free beds, so homeowners who delay yard waste chores risk fines or unhappy neighbors. In White Center and adjacent West Seattle pockets like Roxhill, homeowners want low-maintenance results that respect wet soils and slopes while preserving curb appeal. Sustainable Yard Waste Removal focuses on composting and hauling the green waste responsibly, avoiding herbicides, and giving your yard a cleaner, healthier base for spring planting or mulch refreshes.

Our Quality Service

We remove leaves, brush, branches, and grass clippings with care for wet soils and slope drainage. Our crew hand-cleans beds, prunes small limbs, and loads material for composting or green‑waste processing rather than landfilling.

Local insight guides our work: we time cleanups to avoid compacting saturated soil, protect exposed roots on slopes, and recommend mulch to reduce erosion. Benefits include improved drainage, better curb appeal, a safer yard, and lower long-term maintenance.

What’s Included

  • Complete debris collection: leaves, sticks, clippings, and small branches
  • Hand raking and bed clean-out
  • Light pruning of shrubs and low branches
  • Edging of beds and walkways
  • Haul-away to green-waste or delivery to compost facility

Options / upgrades:

  • Mulch + landscape fabric installation for moisture control
  • Organic, non-chemical weed control and manual ivy removal
  • Haul‑away vs. green bin placement based on HOA/SD rules
  • Post-cleanup soil aeration and top-dress with compost

Before & After / Expectations

  • Expect some noise from leaf blowers and chipper on larger jobs; we stage work to minimize disturbance.
  • We’ll need clear access to driveways or the curb for loading — tight gates can add time.
  • Debris volume affects disposal time; heavy wet loads may incur modest haul fees.

Care tips after Yard Waste Removal:

  • Keep mulch layers 2–3” away from trunks to avoid rot.
  • Water new beds lightly during dry spells and check shaded spots for moss.
  • Pull new weeds early; a monthly walk-through reduces regrowth.

FAQs

  • How long does a typical job take?
    Small yards: 1–3 hours. Medium to large or slope work: half or full day depending on debris.

  • Do you use herbicides for stubborn weeds?
    No — we use manual and organic methods only, consistent with local sustainable practices.

  • Can you leave material in my green bin or must you haul it away?
    We can place clean green waste in your bin if allowed, or haul to a compost facility on request.

  • Do you handle HOA curb cleanups?
    Yes — we work within HOA rules and can prepare a tidy curbside presentation.
