Our move was absolutely seamless. The movers arrived on-time and moved quickly and efficiently. They packed our entire kitchen, and nothing was broken or chipped during the whole process. They were incredibly professional and kind and I couldn't recommend them more.

I called, Tom gave me an estimate and by mid-afternoon the work was done, all on the same day. I needed some piles of brush cleaned up and Renee and Matt worked in the rain to get the job done. They were prompt, courteous and hardworking. I will be definitely be calling Rubbish Doctor again.

They cut the damaged tree, removed all the branches and even cut the good wood into 2' lengths for me to use, all at a very reasonable price. All of the brush was raked up and the cut wood was even stacked for me. I plan to have them come back to do more cut and trim work soon.

Mr. Byers did exactly what he said he would and was $185 cheaper than another company that provided an estimate for the same work. My wobbly railing is now completely solid and it looks great! He even painted other parts of the railing that were chipped.

Brush Chipping questions, answered by experts

The most effective way to remove leaves is to blow them into piles and then bag them. This is faster and more efficient than raking, although it might not be a good idea to use a blower around delicate plants or mulched flower beds. You could leaf blow the bulk of your yard and then rake around garden beds for a quick and easy fall cleanup.

If debris from a tree located in a government-owned space (such as a sidewalk, public school, or government property) falls in your yard, it is the city’s or state government’s responsibility to have the debris cleaned up. On the other hand, most states only hold a neighbor liable for cleaning up their tree’s debris if they were negligent in caring for the tree.

Using a leaf blower is often the easiest way to pick up leaves. It quickly and efficiently gathers leaves into manageable piles, requiring less physical effort than manual raking. Additionally, you can choose to bag the collected leaves or use a mulching mower to break them down into natural mulch, simplifying the cleanup process further.

If composting feels too complicated, mulching is an effective alternative. While composting focuses on breaking down yard waste to feed the soil, mulching uses that same organic material as a protective top layer. It's a quick way to get value from leaves, grass clippings, and other yard debris without the time or effort composting requires.

No, you cannot throw branches from your neighbor’s tree back into their yard, nor can you discard leaves or other plant matter that originated from their yard back over there if it happens to land in your yard. You are responsible for cleaning up plant matter that made its way into your yard.
