Spring
Spring Yard Cleanup
When the snow melts, beds and lawns are often matted with leftover leaves, needles and debris. A spring cleanup clears it out and gets the beds ready for shrub bed weed control.
- Winter debris cleared. Leaves, pine needles and whatever the snow left behind, raked out of the beds and off the lawn.
- Branches picked up. Fallen limbs and sticks cleared from the yard.
- Pruning and trimming. Shrubs and plants pruned for the growing season.
- Beds edged. Clean edges cut along the garden beds.
- Fresh mulch. Flower beds mulched to improve the soil.
Fall
Fall Cleanup & Leaf Removal
Around Spokane, ponderosa pines drop needles and cones through the fall, so a fall cleanup gets them up before snow buries them. Then book your sprinkler blowout before the first hard freeze.
- Leaves raked up. Leaves and yard clutter cleared from the lawn and beds.
- Pine needles and cones. Raked out of the lawn and beds, where they pile up under Spokane's ponderosa pines.
- Trees and shrubs trimmed. Branches trimmed back before winter weather.
- Plants prepped for frost. Beds and plants winterized to help prevent freeze damage.
- A final mow and edge. The lawn gets one last mowing and edging, so it goes into winter tidy.

Questions
Yard Cleanup Questions
When should I schedule a yard cleanup in Spokane?
A spring cleanup works best once the snow is gone and the ground has dried out, often March or April in the Spokane area. A fall cleanup works best once most of the leaves and needles are down but before snow covers the yard, often late October or November. Call Automated Lawn & Pest Control early to get the date you want.
Do you clean up pine needles and pine cones?
Yes. Automated Lawn & Pest Control rakes up pine needles and cones in spring and fall cleanups, along with leaves and fallen branches. Under Spokane's ponderosa pines they pile up fast, and a thick layer left on the lawn over winter can smother the grass underneath.
Why clean up leaves before winter?
Leaves and needles left on the lawn get packed down under the snow and hold moisture against the grass all winter. That can smother the grass and invite snow mold, which shows up as matted, dead-looking patches when the snow melts in spring. Raking them up in fall, with a final mow, sends the lawn into winter clean.
Do you trim trees and shrubs during a cleanup?
Yes. Spring cleanups include pruning and trimming shrubs and plants, and fall cleanups include trimming trees and shrubs back before winter. Tell us exactly what you want trimmed when you book, so it's part of the plan from the start.
How much does a yard cleanup cost?
It depends on the size of the yard, how much has built up and what you want done. Automated Lawn & Pest Control quotes every property individually, and estimates are free. Ask how the job will be billed when you book, so you know what to expect before the crew arrives. Request a free quote.
