Why You Need Spring Outdoor Clean-up and Its Benefits.

Spring cleanup is essential to prepare your yard for a healthy and vibrant growing season. Over winter, leaves, debris, and dead plant material can build up, preventing sunlight, water, and nutrients from reaching your soil.


Benefits of Spring Clean-up:


  • Healthier Lawn and Plants: Removing debris helps your grass and plants grow without obstruction.
  • Pest Prevention: Clearing out dead leaves and branches reduces hiding spots for pests and insects.
  • Improved Curb Appeal: A tidy yard enhances your property’s appearance and value.
  • Easier Maintenance: Starting the season with a clean yard makes ongoing care simpler and more effective.


Spring Yard Cleanup & Maintenance


  • Debris Removal: Clear out leaves and winter debris to refresh your yard.
  • Mulch & Stones: Add fresh mulch or decorative stones to garden beds and tree rings for moisture retention and weed suppression.
  • Aeration: Loosen compacted soil to enhance water and nutrient absorption for healthier grass.
  • Fertilization: Boost lawn growth with fertilizer. Apply pre-emergent weed control between February and March for best results.
  • Pruning: Trim back spent stems and foliage from perennials for fresh, new growth.
  • Shrub & Bush Shaping: Cut back and reshape shrubs for a neat, well-maintained look.


Get your outdoor space ready for spring with a thorough cleanup—it’s an investment in a beautiful, healthy yard!
