Fall is more than just beautiful leaves—it’s the perfect time to prepare your lawn and landscape for the cold months ahead. A proper fall cleanup can improve curb appeal, protect your lawn, and make spring maintenance much easier.
Here are the key cleanup services we recommend from 606 Land & Snow.
1. 🍁 Leaf Removal & Lawn Cleanup
A thick layer of leaves can block sunlight and trap moisture against the grass, potentially leading to bare or unhealthy areas. Regular removal—or properly mulching leaves into the lawn—helps keep turf healthier going into winter.
Our recommendation: Schedule cleanups throughout peak leaf season rather than waiting until the entire yard is covered.



2. 🌱 Final Mowing & Lawn Preparation
Your lawn may continue growing into the cooler months. Keeping up with the final cuts and avoiding excessively tall grass helps prepare the turf for winter.
Our recommendation: Continue mowing as needed until growth slows, while adjusting mowing height appropriately for your grass type.



3. 🌿 Garden Bed & Plant Cleanup
Remove weeds, diseased plant material, and excessive debris from garden beds. However, not everything needs to be cut back—some healthy perennials and grasses can provide winter habitat and food for wildlife.
Our recommendation: Take a selective approach rather than clearing every plant completely.



4. 🍂 Mulching & Protecting Garden Beds
A properly applied layer of mulch can help protect plant roots, conserve moisture, and provide insulation as temperatures drop.
Our recommendation: Refresh mulch where needed, but avoid piling it directly against tree trunks or plant stems.



5. 🌳 Tree, Shrub & Branch Cleanup
Fall is a good opportunity to identify and remove dead, damaged, or problematic branches before winter weather arrives.
Our recommendation: Focus on branches that are dead, damaged, or creating a safety concern rather than heavily pruning everything.



6. 🧹 Final Property Cleanup
A professional fall cleanup should finish with the small details—clearing leaves and debris from lawns, walkways, patios, landscape beds, and other visible areas.
Our recommendation: Do a final cleanup after most leaves have fallen, then remove remaining debris before winter sets in.
