What is a Fall Clean-Up?
As the vibrant colors of autumn sweep across New England your landscape undergoes a seasonal shift. While fall brings crisp air and beautiful foliage, it also leaves behind fallen leaves, overgrown branches, and debris that can create headaches for property owners. This is where a professional fall clean-up makes all the difference.
Whether you’re a homeowner looking to protect your lawn for next spring or a business owner maintaining curb appeal, a well-executed fall clean-up ensures your property stays healthy, safe, and inviting. At Egan Landscape Group, we specialize in reliable, detail-oriented clean-ups designed to enhance both the appearance and long-term health of your landscape. In this guide, we’ll break down what goes into a fall clean-up, why it matters, and how our team handles the process from start to finish.

Why Are Fall Clean-Ups Beneficial?
A professional fall clean-up is more than cosmetic—it directly impacts the health of your landscape. Here’s why investing in this seasonal service matters:
- Prevents Lawn Damage: Thick layers of leaves block sunlight, trap moisture, and can smother grass.
- Reduces Pest and Disease Risk: Decaying plant matter is a breeding ground for fungi, mold, and insects.
- Invest Now, Save Later: Skipping a fall clean-up can lead to costly lawn renovations down the road. Investing in a fall clean-up now helps protect your turf, improve your lawn’s health, and save money in the long run.
- Boosts Property Value: A tidy, well-maintained landscape enhances curb appeal for homes and businesses alike.
- Saves Time in Spring: Handling the heavy lifting in fall means you’ll be ready to enjoy your outdoor space sooner when warmer weather arrives.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Do I need a fall clean-up if I mow my lawn?
Yes. Mowing handles grass height, but a full clean-up ensures leaves, branches, and plant debris don’t cause long-term damage. It also prepares beds and plants for winter.
Can I do a fall clean-up myself?
While you can tackle basic leaf raking, a professional clean-up saves time, ensures thoroughness, and often prevents costly mistakes like over-pruning or missing pest-prone areas.
When is it best to schedule a fall clean-up?
In New England, fall clean-ups are best scheduled between November and December, depending on weather conditions and leaf drop. Booking early helps secure your preferred timing, though a scheduled date is always weather dependent.
A fall clean-up is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your landscape and prepare for a vibrant spring. From leaf removal to pruning and final lawn care, each step ensures your property stays beautiful, healthy, and safe through the winter months.
