Garden Soon provides seasonal yard cleanup in Aliquippa, Beaver County — $175–$400 / $200–$500 for most residential properties. Predominantly mid-20th century industrial-era housing stock on modest lots. Property character like that shapes what a real seasonal cleanup involves and what it will cost.
It usually starts with embarrassment. You meant to get to the leaves in October, then November hit and it rained every weekend, and now it's February and there's a foot of matted brown leaves packed against your fence and smothering what used to be a decent lawn. Or you just bought the house and didn't realize that the three oaks in the backyard would drop a volume of leaves that genuinely takes a full day to manage. The older neighborhoods in western PA — Beaver, New Brighton, Sewickley, Cranberry — have mature tree canopies that can make fall leaf management feel like a second job. We hear from homeowners every spring who didn't know the leaves were still doing damage in March. They figured the lawn would bounce back. Sometimes it does. Sometimes there are dead patches under where the mat sat all winter, and the lawn needs real recovery work. A late fall or early spring call to us is almost always cheaper than what happens when the cleanup doesn't get done.
For Aliquippa specifically: predominantly mid-20th century industrial-era housing stock on modest lots. Bluff-top neighborhoods have older homes with established tree canopy that creates shade management challenges. Some properties on the flatter river terrace sections have more open exposure.
When we leave, the lawn is uncovered and the beds are clean. You get a property that looks like it's been properly maintained — defined edges, clear turf, no debris packed against the house or fence. Beyond the visual, the real benefit is lawn health: turf that goes into winter without a smothering leaf mat breaks dormancy better in spring, with less thin patching and fewer areas where the grass simply didn't survive.
You pull up to a property in early November and the lawn is completely buried — you can't see a blade of grass anywhere. There are oaks along the back fence line that haven't finished dropping and a thick layer of wet maple leaves from two weeks ago plastered flat across everything. This is a haul job, not a mulch-mow job. We start at the back, running blowers to push the leaves toward the center of the lawn in rows we can load from. The wet ones peel up slow. We work through the beds next — raking out the accumulated leaf pack, getting down to the soil, pulling out the dead annual stems from summer. Then the edger comes out. Running a clean edge along a bed border after a full leaf cleanup is the moment a property goes from looking worked-over to looking sharp. It's a visible line that tells the eye the yard is under control. We load the trailer, blow down the driveway, and leave it cleaner than it's probably looked since September.
Spring cleanup starts at $175 for a smaller lot with modest debris and goes to $400 or more for larger properties with heavy winter accumulation, lots of ornamental beds, or significant stick debris from storms. Fall cleanup for a single visit runs $200–$500 depending on lot size and leaf volume — a yard with three mature oaks in a river valley neighborhood costs more than a newer subdivision lot with young trees. Haul-away is included in the price when we need the trailer; customers on streets with municipal leaf pickup don't need it and that keeps costs down. Two-visit fall cleanups — one after the main drop, one after the oaks finish — run $350–$700 for the pair depending on property size. Bed edging as a standalone service is $85–$175 depending on linear footage. Heavy leaf accumulation on a large wooded lot can push fall cleanup above $500 — we'll tell you the range before we start.

Significant grade changes between the river-level sections and the bluff neighborhoods above. Some yards require walk-behind equipment on steeper pitches. Street access in the older hillside sections can be narrow with limited turnaround room. We adjust our equipment and approach based on what's actually there.
Yes, we serve Beaver County and the river valley towns are some of our busiest fall cleanup stops. The tree canopy along the Ohio and Beaver Rivers — sycamores, oaks, cottonwoods — generates a serious leaf load, and the low-lying yards along those corridors tend to collect leaves that blow in from neighboring properties too. We're used to heavy haul jobs in those areas and we bring the trailer when the volume calls for it.
Spring cleanup typically runs $175–$400 and fall cleanup runs $200–$500 for a standard suburban lot in our service area. The main factors are lot size, how many mature trees you have, how heavy the accumulation is, and whether we need to haul debris or can leave bags for municipal pickup. We give you a price range before we start so there are no surprises.
Spring cleanup is about uncovering the lawn after winter — removing matted leaves, dead stems, sticks, and debris that accumulated over the cold months, plus cutting back ornamental grasses and re-edging beds. Fall cleanup is primarily a leaf volume problem — getting heavy accumulation off the turf before it smothers the grass going into winter, cleaning out beds, and cutting back spent perennials. Both visits include bed edging and blowdown of hard surfaces, but the work and the timing are different for each.
A cleanup resets how a yard looks, but the underlying turf condition going into winter — or coming out of it — depends on what happened in the soil all season. Compacted clay, missed grub control, and unaddressed pH issues show up in spring as thin patches and slow green-up that seasonal cleanup can't fix. A lawn care program addresses those causes across the growing season, so the next cleanup starts with turf that's actually in good shape to begin with.
We offer the following additional services in Aliquippa — most customers who do seasonal cleanup eventually add one or more of these:
Year-round turf health — fertilization, weed control, grub prevention, and winterizer timed to the western PA growing season.
Weekly or biweekly mowing with edge trimming and blowdown. We cut at the right height for cool-season turf and adjust for growth rate.
One-time reclamation for neglected or jungle properties. We bring equipment rated for heavy material and haul everything out.
Family- and pet-safe perimeter spray applied around the home exterior — foundation band, entry points, and window frames.
Vegetable garden design, site assessment, planting plans, and seasonal coaching.
