Leaf Removal in NJ

Autumn is a beautiful time of the year. With this beauty, comes the chore of leaf removal. In many cases, fall clean-up generally is not regarded as a fun task. Many homeowners hire a professional lawn care company to address leaf issues.

REASONS

  • Too physically demanding
  • Back injuries
  • Issues working in cold weather
  • Arthritis or joint problems
  • Time constraints
  • Lack of tools and equipment

Leaves should be removed at least 3 to 4 times before the winter, in some case many more leaf pick-ups are necessary. Excessive amounts of leaves on the lawn, block sunlight and reduce water evaporation. Thick layers of leaves also prohibit water, nutrients and air flow from reaching grass roots. If leaves are not addressed and are allowed to accumulate, a healthy lawn can be wiped out in know time. Even if leaves are removed  at a later date, the damage is already done. Thick layers of leaves can invite major problems like snow mold, brown patch, insects , rodents, just to name a few.

Leaf removal is lawn maintenance.  If leaves become a nuisance or eye sore, the homeowner may face fines from the city or their homeowners association.
