The spring and fall seasons can take a toll on your property, and it will take some work to keep your lawn and landscape beds healthy and looking their best. Instead of taking on the task of cleaning up your lawn and landscape beds yourself, you can invest in a yard cleanup service instead. A yard cleanup is a service that many landscaping companies in the Georgia area offer in the spring and fall seasons, and they are intended to get your property looking its best during these seasons. Before hiring a company to perform a yard cleanup on your property, make sure they offer the following services: debris removal, weed control, mulch installation, and plant pruning. These services are designed to improve the health and aesthetics of your lawn and landscape beds.

1. Debris removal

Before hiring a company to perform a yard cleanup on your property, you will need to ensure that debris removal is part of their service. This is an important task because debris can not only bring down the curb appeal of your property, but it can also suffocate your grass by blocking sunlight and water from reaching it. Debris also provides the perfect place for lawn diseases to grow and also provides shelter for insects and other pests. To ensure that debris doesn't drag down your curb appeal or encourage pests or lawn diseases from taking over your property, make sure that the yard cleanup service you schedule includes debris removal.

2. Weed Control

Weed control is another important service that should be included in a yard cleanup. While weeds are unsightly, that's just one of the problems that they cause. They also steal nutrients from your grass and plants, which can weaken them because they might not be able to absorb the nutrients that they need to thrive. A yard cleanup service should include weed control, so you can rest easy knowing that your lawn and landscape beds will be weed-free and have full access to any nutrients.

3. Mulch Installation

Mulch plays an important role in both the health and aesthetics of your landscape beds. When it comes to aesthetics, mulch can add color to your landscape beds and can provide contrast for your plants. Mulch also provides several health benefits, including:

  • Reducing soil erosion
  • Maintaining soil moisture
  • Preventing weed growth
  • Regulating soil temperature

Before scheduling a yard cleanup service, make sure that the company that you are looking to hire will either install mulch in your landscape beds or replenish the mulch if you already have mulch in them.

As mulch breaks down, it will add nutrients to your soil!

4. Plant Pruning

Pruning your plants is important as it involves removing dead or diseased parts of your plants so that they can't spread to other parts of the plant. When you hire a company to perform a yard cleanup, they should include plant pruning in that service. That way, your plants can stay healthy and match the beauty of the rest of your property. If the company you are looking to hire doesn't include pruning with their yard cleanup service, you should continue your search until you find a company that does.
