Professional Fall Yard Cleanups & Property Winterization
As the autumn season sets in and leaves begin to blanket your yard, preparing your property for winter is critical. Our hardworking student team at CreekCare provides thorough Fall Clean Up services in Ottawa South Ottawa to protect your turf and clear your property before the heavy snow arrives.
Leaving wet leaves on your lawn throughout the winter blocks sunlight and restricts airflow. This traps heavy moisture against the soil, creating the perfect conditions for snow mold, root rot, and unsightly dead patches in the spring. We thoroughly rake and bag all leaves, prune back perennials, tidy garden beds, and perform a final high-trim mow if necessary, ensuring your property is clean and winter-ready.

Why is fall clean up important?
Leaving a thick layer of wet leaves on your grass over winter blocks sunlight and traps moisture, which leads to snow mold, rot, and dead patches in the spring.
When should fall clean up be scheduled?
Usually in late October or November once the majority of leaves have fallen but before the first heavy snowfall covers the ground.
Do you provide leaf disposal?
Yes, we rake, bag, and place leaves at your curb for municipal yard waste collection. We can also handle custom bagging/disposal requests.
