Colorful fall foliage brightens the streets in Shreveport, but eventually those leaves turn brown and drop. When they do, they block sunlight, smother grass, and force you to waste pleasant autumn days raking and sweating.

There’s a faster way. Lawn Love makes leaf removal simple. Our local lawn care pros in Shreveport handle leaf removal and leaf cleanup in the fall. 

Lawn Love’s leaf removal price starts as low as $152.53 for 1 acre, but pricing is based on the size and amount of leaves on your lawn. Our local leaf cleanup pros rake or blow the leaves onto a tarp and then bag them.

Bottom Line: Fall color along the Red River parks looks lovely, but on your lawn, leaves are a wet, time-draining mess. Book Lawn Love for fast, reliable leaf removal in Shreveport so your grass stays healthy and your weekends stay free.

Lawn Love Leaf Removal FAQ

How can leaves damage my lawn?

A thick layer of leaves:

• Smothers grass. Leaves block the sun, water, and air your grass needs. 
• Spurs lawn diseases (such as snow molds, red thread, and brown patch).
• Attracts pests (ants, termites, cockroaches, and rodents, for example).
• Increases weeds. A thick layer of moist leaves fuels weed growth.
• Lowers curb appeal. Your yard looks uncared for or like a lot of work to buyers.

How can you get rid of leaves in your yard?

• Hire a leaf removal crew. Easiest option, saves time, energy, and possible backache.
• Rake and bag leaves. This takes time and effort and can strain your back.
• Blow leaves and then bag them. It takes less time, but can strain your knees.
• Vacuum leaves. This takes even less time, but it’s a specialized and expensive service.
• Mulch leaves. Mulching mowers make this easy, and mulched leaves add nutrients.

What to do with the leaves you clean up

• Place bags of leaves at the curb for easy pickup.
• Mulch them.
• Compost them. Leaf mold is often called gardener’s gold.
• Use them as insulation to protect root vegetables from the cold.

How much does leaf removal cost?

Your leaf removal price reflects these cost factors:

• Yard size
• Number of trees in your yard (more trees means more leaves)
• Amount of leaves (dry or wet leaves and thin or thick layer covering your grass)
• Leaf removal method (raking and bagging costs more because it takes more time)
• Time of year (leaf removal prices are highest in fall, which is peak season)

How often should I have my leaves removed?

One-time leaf removal (or twice per year) is common in the South, where there are fewer trees that drop leaves.
