Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about spring and fall cleanups on Cape Cod.

When should I schedule my spring cleanup? +
Spring cleanups on Cape Cod typically run from late March through April, once the ground has thawed and snow has fully melted. Booking early is recommended — the spring window is short and our schedule fills quickly.
When should I schedule my fall cleanup? +
Fall cleanups are usually done from late October through mid-November, after most leaves have dropped but before the first hard frost. Many properties benefit from a multi-pass approach as leaves come down in waves.
Do I really need both a spring and fall cleanup? +
For most Cape Cod properties, yes. Spring cleanup clears winter debris and prepares your lawn and beds for the growing season. Fall cleanup prevents leaves from suffocating turf, keeps the property tidy through winter, and saves you a much bigger job come spring.
Do you haul away the leaves and debris? +
Yes. All leaves, branches, and yard waste collected during the cleanup are hauled offsite for disposal. You don't need to bag, pile, or arrange anything yourself.
Can you handle commercial properties? +
Yes. We service residential and commercial properties across Cape Cod, including condo associations, businesses, and large estates. Our crews and equipment scale to properties of any size.
Do you offer mulching as part of the spring cleanup? +
Yes. Mulch installation is a popular add-on to the spring cleanup — refreshing garden beds, suppressing weeds, and helping retain soil moisture through the warm months. We source quality mulch and apply it at the proper depth. To keep beds looking their best between cleanups, see our mulching, weeding, and edging service.
