"I tried to contact them via Angie's list but did not get a response. Then went to their website and got a very prompt response. I told Terry what I needed, including other work that has not been done yet. I had the measurements of the area to be mowed and we agreed upon a price. He also agreed to come out that afternoon and look at the other job to give me a price on that. I was at work when I talked to him but was off that afternoon. When I got home, I was amazed to see that the lawn had already been mowed and was a very good job! They treated the job exactly the way I would have. Can't ask more than for someone to treat your property the way they would their own. The price was a little high for the small area mowed, but I understand that there has to be a minimum, otherwise it is not worth their time to even come out, however, after Terry came to look at the other job and saw the area that his guys had mowed, he said he would knock off $10 for future mowing. I have hired him for the other job as well and will review that once it is done."

Lawns FAQs, answered by experts

Post-dethatching, lawn recovery includes watering, fertilizing, and reseeding as necessary to restore health and promote growth.

Overall, artificial turf maintenance isn’t time- or labor-intensive, especially compared to natural lawns. To clean artificial grass, you can start by raking away any organic debris, like leaves and dirt, that have blown in from somewhere else. Then, break out the hose to take care of most messes that are left over.

Several tools exist that can help remove unwanted grass. The one you choose depends greatly on how much you need to remove and how hard you'd like to work. A sod or turf cutter is the fastest method while using a shovel is labor-intensive and much slower. You may also need a garden rake, tiller, and wheelbarrow. 

A thorn bush isn’t likely to do serious damage, but it’ll definitely hurt if you get a thorn or two in your hand or arm. When removing thorn bushes, always wear thick gloves, long sleeves, and safety goggles to protect against thorns and dirt. If dealing with larger bushes or unfamiliar terrain, consider enlisting a helper for assistance.

You cannot put anything you want into a rented dumpster, as there are significant restrictions on certain items.

Generally allowed items include:

  • Household Junk: Furniture, old linens, carpets, toys, small appliances, and excess trash.

  • Construction & Yard Debris: Wood, yard debris, roofing materials, old finishes, and other construction waste.

Commonly prohibited items include:

  • Hazardous Materials: Toxic waste, medical waste, dangerous chemicals, items with lead paint, and asbestos.

  • Flammables: Gasoline, oil, and fuel.

  • Specific Banned Items: Paint cans, electronics, batteries, tires, refrigerators, and hot water tanks.

Because rules can vary, you should always check with your specific dumpster rental company for their guidelines if you are unsure about an item.
