"The communications with the company were prompt and easy. They showed up a few minutes before 7:00 am which was great. This meant they were all ready to go at 7. We had them remove 4 bush stumps from our backyard which they did quickly. We had them removes some old bushes on the side of the house and they even got rid of the weeds that were in that area. Lastly, we asked them to do a fall clean up. They gathered the leaves and put them along the curb for clean up the next day. They went through our landscaping to get rid of the weeds and trim down bushes for the winter. They were nice, polite and professional. They even explained to my husband what bushes they were trimming and which ones they were not because it was too early in the season to prep them for winter. We are very happy with their work.

"Duke and Barry were very pleasant guys who checked in with me when unsure what to remove and did a very thorough job. Sarah the owner, clearly communicated with me and sent me a text to alert me movers were 30 minutes away. After waste removal completed Sarah called me and said she had just spoken with movers about paint left behind. She said there was a miscommunication and that she could remove the paint herself and showed up 30 minutes later. Imagine an owner going above and beyond to provide superior service and customer satisfaction. This is why I gave Sarah and her company 5 stars."

"Juan, Jose and their staff did an amazing landscaping job. They made it easy to get exactly what Bryan and I wanted. The entire process was smooth and the work was completed as scheduled. It is obvious they take pride not only in the work they do, but the customer service they provide. We could not be happier with the results. We gave people driving or walking by, amazed at our yard transformation. We will most definitely use them again and will recommend them to others."

"JR Land & Haul did an amazing job clearing out my garage! They were professional, hardworking, and incredibly efficient from start to finish. The team showed up on time, worked quickly, and made the whole process completely stress-free. They handled everything with care and left the garage looking cleaner than I expected. Their pricing was fair, communication was excellent, and everyone was friendly and respectful throughout the job. I highly recommend JR Land & Haul to anyone needing junk removal or clean-out services — I’ll definitely be using them again in the future!"

Hiring a leaf removal company is a reliable way to get rid of a lot of leaves in your yard. Some companies offer a full range of yard cleaning services, while others may only haul away the leaves you gather and bag yourself. If you prefer the DIY route, you can try mulching leaves with your mower, using a leaf blower to collect them, using a leaf tarp to bag them, and more.
Leaf removal costs between $400 and $1,000 per acre on average. Nationally, the cost of leaf removal averages about $350. Cost factors for this project include lawn size, leaf removal method, tree density, location, and the time required to do the job. If your lawn removal service charges based on lawn size, you can expect to pay $0.02 to $0.10 per square foot.
Removing leaves from your lawn and yard has a few benefits. Leaves that cover your lawn over the winter can block sunlight from reaching your lawn, smothering and even killing the grass. Leftover leaves in your yard can create bare patches that you’ll need to reseed in the spring to return the grass to its former glory. Hiring a leaf removal company can save you time and labor, especially if your lawn is large or you have a high density of trees dropping leaves in your yard.
Whether you hire leaf removal done during the spring or fall or both, it’s often a good time to have the leaf removal company tackle other projects if they offer other lawn services. Other projects to bundle with leaf removal include:
Junk removal: $60–$600
Mowing: $50–$200
Weeding: $70–$150
Mulching: $75 per cubic yard
Hedge and tree pruning: $75–850
Lawn aeration: $0.10–$0.35 per square foot
Garden cleanup: $45–$75 per hour
You should hire a leaf removal company if you don’t have the time or tools to keep up with the leaves falling in your yard. Hiring leaf removal professionals will free up your time to take care of other household priorities, plus they will clear your lawn more quickly and efficiently than using DIY methods. Be sure to contact leaf removal companies at the end of summer to secure a scheduled visit in the fall, and shop around to get a few estimates and compare pricing.
