Why fall cleanup starts before fall

By August, property owners can usually see which beds are overgrown, which shrubs need notes, where leaves will collect, and where final cuts may need extra attention. Planning early helps avoid the October rush.

What to review now

• Leaf-heavy areas near fences, corners, and beds.
• Final mowing access and gate instructions.
• Mulch, edging, and shrub touch-up needs.
• Storm debris or dead branches that should not wait.
• Snow access notes for winter planning.
