🧹 What Is Debris Cleanup and Haul Away?
When winter storms, heavy winds, or seasonal leaf drop leave your yard buried in branches, leaves, trash, or old materials — Debris Cleanup and Haul Away gets your property back to clean fast. We clear out:
Fallen branches, sticks, dead leaves, and seasonal debris
Old yard waste or organic debris that accumulates over time
Trash or leftover waste from previous projects or tenants
Heavy yard waste that can block drainage or prevent healthy grass growth
The goal is simple: reset the yard — clean slate, no clutter, no hazards.
✅ Why Cleanup Matters for Your Yard (Especially in Cincinnati)
Leaves, branches, and debris block sunlight and water — which “suffocates” grass and harms soil health.
Debris piles give pests and insects a place to hide — and can lead to mold, fungus, or pest problems when wet.
Curb appeal matters. A clean yard signals care, boosts property appearance, and makes your landscaping or maintenance services shine — especially in neighborhoods with high standards.
It sets the stage for everything else: mowing, bed work, planting, health treatments — you want that done on a clean canvas so nothing gets buried or ignored.
🔧 What the Service Includes (What We Do When We Clean Up)
When you book Debris Cleanup and Haul Away with Bearcat Landscaping, here’s what we handle:
Walk the property and gather ALL debris: branches, leaves, dead plant matter, old mulch, trash, etc.
Bag or haul away debris properly — nothing left to rot or clutter your yard.
Clear out bed debris, clean around fences, property lines, walkways.
Inspect for hidden hazards (sharp wood, broken pots, old materials) and remove them.
Optional add-ons: before cleanup we can pair with bed edging, weeding, mulch refresh, or lawn prep so the whole yard gets a reset in one go.
📅 When to Get Debris Cleanup Done
Early spring — after winter thaw and storms, but before new growth begins.
Late fall — after most leaves drop, before snow/ice start.
Anytime there’s heavy storm damage, wind-blown debris, or evidence of clutter.
Before other landscaping services: mowing, fertilizing, planting, bed work — always start with a clean yard.
💰 Rough Pricing & What Affects Cost
Because debris cleanup depends a lot on how messy the yard is, pricing can vary. Typical local landscaping companies price general cleanup between $75–$450 depending on yard size and debris volume.
With Bearcat Landscaping, we start quotes at $99–$149 for small yards/light cleanup, scaling up based on:
Amount of debris (leaves vs. branches, light vs. heavy)
Yard size and accessibility (tight city lots, gates, fences)
Ease of haul-away / disposal needs
Add-ons: if you want lawn prep, edging, cleanup + mulch, etc.
🔄 Recommended Services to Pair With Debris Cleanup
Debris cleanup is the base — but if you want your yard truly clean, healthy, and ready for the season, we often bundle with:
Bed Edging and Redefining
Bed Weeding and Crack Weeding
Mulch Installation and Refresh
Lawn Health Treatments or Aeration
Power Washing (if walkways, drives, patios need cleaning)
Junk Removal (if there’s heavy non-organic waste)
Bundling saves you time, boosts yard health, and makes the final product look sharp from top to bottom.
📝 FAQ — Debris Cleanup Edition
Q: How often should I schedule debris cleanup?
A: At least once per year (typically spring or fall). If you have heavy tree coverage, consider twice per year.
Q: What kind of debris do you remove?
A: Leaves, sticks, branches, dead plant matter, fall mulch, old yard waste, and basic non-hazardous trash. Heavy demolition debris or hazardous materials require a separate “Junk Removal” service.
Q: Do you do cleanups before mowing or planting?
A: Always. A clean yard ensures mowing, planting, or bed work goes smoothly and nothing gets buried under debris.
Q: Will cleanup affect my lawn or plants?
A: If done properly — no. We clear only dead/dead-stock, not living plants. It actually helps sunlight, water, and nutrients reach soil.
Q: Do you haul debris away or leave it for city pickup?
A: We haul it away. You don’t want debris piling up or waiting for city services.
