Professional Leaf Removal Service in Spartanburg, SC

The fall foliage is a stunning bouquet of colors in September and early October, but these same leaves are a pain (sometimes literally) to rake, bag, or vacuum from your Spartanburg lawn. 

You don’t have to. Lawn Love makes leaf removal easy. Our leaf cleanup pros rake or blow the leaves onto a tarp and then bag them. Pricing starts as low as $157.51 per acre but is based on the size of your property and the amount of leaves on your lawn. 

Leaves usually start falling in early October in Spartanburg, and leaf removal tends to be needed through early November. In fact, Spartanburg has a weekly green waste collection and runs a special loose-leaf vacuum service for large piles during the fall and winter, provided you can get the leaves to the curbside. 

The most common trees that shed leaves in Spartanburg include:

• Oaks
• Red maple
• Sweetgum
• Shagbark hickory

Leaf removal isn’t tied to just fall or winter in Spartanburg. Lawns can be covered with leaves after storms in any season. 

Humid areas, like Spartanburg, may need leaf cleanup more often as humidity and moisture foster lawn diseases like dollar spot, rust, and gray leaf spot. Moist leaves covering your lawn also can become a haven for pests.

Bottom Line: Fall leaves are beautiful in Cleveland Park, just not on your lawn.

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?

Biweekly or monthly leaf removal is pretty standard in the Carolinas,
