One-Time Fall Lawn Clean-Up in Alberta: A Key Step in Year-Round Lawn Health

As the leaves start falling and frost creeps in across Alberta, your lawn enters a critical transition. Fall is the final opportunity to prep your yard before our long, cold winters—and what you do now lays the foundation for a healthy, green lawn in spring.

If you’ve been keeping up with your lawn through the summer (or even if you haven’t), now is the time to make sure it’s properly cleaned up and protected. Our one-time fall clean-up service is a convenient, effective way to support your lawn through winter—whether you’re a regular customer or just getting started with professional care.

Why Fall Clean-Up Is Important

Alberta’s unique climate—dry air, fluctuating temperatures, and early snowfall—means lawns face serious stress during the winter months. A proper fall clean-up helps prevent:

• Snow mold and fungal disease.
• Grass suffocation from thick leaf cover.
• Rodents and pests nesting in overgrown grass, cluttered garden beds, and yard debris.
• Compacted soil and poor spring recovery.

A fall clean-up isn’t just about tidiness—it’s a foundational step in long-term lawn care.

What’s Included in Our One-Time Fall Clean-Up

Our fall clean-up service is designed to address the key issues Alberta yards face as the season changes—helping your lawn stay healthy and your property look its best before winter arrives.

✅ Leaf & Debris Removal
We clear fallen leaves and yard waste from your lawn, garden beds, rock beds, and hard surfaces to prevent suffocation, mold, and pest problems.

✅ Final Lawn Mow
We mow your lawn to the ideal fall height of 2–3 cm, which helps reduce the risk of snow mold and encourages strong, healthy spring growth.

✅ Lawn Aeration (Recommended Add-On)
Fall is an ideal time for aeration. It improves root development and allows better moisture and nutrient absorption before winter dormancy.

✅ Garden & Rock Bed Blow-Out
We blow out all loose leaves and debris from garden beds and rock beds, helping prevent mold, rot, and unwanted pest nesting areas over the winter.

✅ Edge Trimming
We perform vertical edge trimming along all hardscapes—including sidewalks, driveways, patios, and curbs—and horizontal trimming along all turf edges, including around lawn ornaments such as plant pots, trees, shrubs, and other landscape features, for a crisp, clean finish.

✅ Bagging & Disposal
All debris is collected and deposited in green bins and paper bags for city pickup—or, in some cases, hauled away.

A Smart Step in Year-Round Lawn Care

While a fall clean-up is important on its own, it’s even more effective when it’s part of a comprehensive, year-round care plan. Regular mowing, weed control, fertilization, and seasonal services work together to create a lawn that stays healthy, thick, and resilient.

Think of your fall clean-up as the final treatment in a seasonal routine—or the first step if you're planning to invest in professional care going forward.

When to Book

Fall weather in Alberta is unpredictable, so we recommend booking your clean-up between early and late-September—before the ground freezes or snow accumulates. The earlier you book, the better we can time services like aeration and mowing.
