What a fall cleanup includes

  • Leaves cleared from the lawn, beds, walkways and fence lines
  • Leaves pulled out from under shrubs and along the foundation
  • Final mow of the season
  • Beds and edges tidied for winter
  • Hard surfaces blown clean
  • Everything hauled away, no piles left at the curb

Why New Hampshire lawns need one

Leaves left on the lawn get packed down under the snow all winter. They block light, hold moisture against the grass and invite snow mold, which shows up as matted grey or pink patches when the snow melts.

One good cleanup after most of the leaves are down saves a lot of raking and reseeding in spring.

When to book a fall cleanup in New Hampshire

After most of the leaves are down and before the first snow that stays. In most of southern New Hampshire that means late October into November. Towns farther north and higher up usually run a week or more ahead of the Seacoast and the southern tier.

Maples tend to drop first and oaks hang on longest, so a yard with big oaks sometimes needs a second pass after the oaks let go.

Questions

Fall cleanups: good to know

What is included in a fall cleanup?

Leaves cleared from the lawn, beds, walkways and fence lines, a final mow of the season, beds and edges tidied for winter, and everything hauled away.

When is the best time for a fall cleanup in New Hampshire?

After most of the leaves are down and before the snow that stays, usually late October into November in southern New Hampshire and earlier up north.

How much does a fall cleanup cost in New Hampshire?

It depends on the yard: its size, how many trees drop leaves on it, and how much hand work the beds and edges need. We price it after a free look at the property and send a written quote before any work starts.

Do I need to bag the leaves?

No. We clear and haul everything away, so there is nothing to bag and nothing left at the curb for town pickup.

Can I book just one fall cleanup?

Yes. A fall cleanup can be a one-time visit, with or without weekly mowing next season.

Is it too late once it snows?

A light early snow usually melts off. Once the ground stays covered for the season, the leaves can't be cleared properly, so book before the snow that sticks.
