Garden Soon handles overgrown lawn cleanup in Hopewell Township, Beaver County — $350–$650 for most suburban lots, depending on size and neglect duration. First frost mid-October is reliable. When growing conditions accelerate seasonal growth, a manageable lawn can go genuinely overgrown fast — we walk every property before quoting.
Most people who call us for an overgrown cleanup aren't calling because they got lazy. They're calling because life got in the way. A parent passed away and left behind a property that sat through two growing seasons before anyone had the bandwidth to deal with it. A tenant moved out and the rental sat vacant longer than planned. A landscaper stopped showing up in July and by September the yard looked like a nature preserve. Someone had a health scare and spent the summer in and out of the hospital. A divorce dragged on and the house sat. We hear all of these situations regularly, and we don't treat any of them as unusual or embarrassing. Overgrown properties happen. The grass doesn't know what's going on in your life. What matters is that you're ready to get it back under control now, and we're set up to handle exactly this kind of job — the ones where a standard mow-and-go crew will take one look at the yard and say they can't help.
For Hopewell Township specifically: first frost mid-October is reliable. Green-up begins in mid-April on most properties. The elevated position above the river means temperatures can be cooler than the riverside boroughs, and the mowing season effectively runs from mid-April to early November.
The cleanup quote covers the full reclamation process: walking the property for hazards, all stages of cutting from full height down to finish, string trimming around structures and obstacles, and hauling all debris off the property. What it does not include is overseeding, ongoing mowing, or pest control treatment. Those are separate services. If overseeding or a pest barrier spray makes sense after we've cleared the property, we'll say so honestly — but they're not rolled into the cleanup price.
Before: The property is chest-high in places. There's a defined line where maintained neighbors' lawns end and the overgrown lot begins. The ground isn't visible. You may be able to tell where the driveway and sidewalk are, but the lawn itself has become a thicket. Weed species have taken over — not just tall grass, but goldenrod, pokeweed, briars. During: The property comes apart in sections. The first pass with the brush mower opens up channels. Debris starts piling at the trailer. With each lowering of the deck, the property gets more recognizable. You can start to see the yard underneath. The load in the trailer grows. After the initial cut, there's often exposed bare soil and dead thatch matted underneath — that's normal, and it's honest. After: When we leave, you have a yard again. It may not look like a golf course — especially if this was a long-neglected property. Some bare patches are expected. What you have is a cleared, accessible space with the debris gone. For properties that needed two visits, this first visit gets it to a workable state. The follow-up visit a week or two later finishes it properly and gives you a clean baseline for regular maintenance going forward.
Pricing on overgrown cleanup jobs is driven by four main factors: how tall and dense the vegetation is, the size of the lot, how much debris volume needs to be loaded and hauled, and how many visits it will take to get the property to a finished state. A quarter- to half-acre suburban lot that's been neglected for one season typically runs $350–$650 for a single-visit reclamation with haul-away included. Properties that have been sitting two to three or more years — where we're dealing with established weeds, heavy thatch, and significant debris — more often need two visits. Those jobs typically run around $450 for the first visit and $275 for the follow-up, though the specifics vary. Larger lots, steep terrain, or properties with heavy invasive vegetation will push prices higher, sometimes to $700–$1,400 or above. We don't quote these jobs remotely. The difference between a $400 job and a $1,100 job is visible on-site, not over the phone. We do a free site look before we give you a number.

Rolling terrain with some steeper sections on the elevated parts of the township. The Ohio River is visible from some high points, but most residential areas sit well above the river level on plateau and hillside terrain. Lot sizes vary from suburban quarter-acre to rural multi-acre properties. We adjust our equipment and approach based on what's actually there.

Most suburban lots in our service area run $350–$650 for a quarter- to half-acre property with moderate neglect, with debris haul-away included. Severely overgrown properties, larger lots, or jobs that require two visits typically run $700–$1,400 or more. We can't give you an accurate number without seeing the property first — the range is genuinely that wide depending on vegetation height, density, lot size, and debris volume.
We need to see the property before we can quote it accurately. The difference between a $400 cleanup and a $1,100 cleanup isn't obvious from a description — it's visible on-site. We do a free site visit and give you a firm number before any work starts.
When we clear an overgrown area — tall grass, dense brush, a property that's been sitting a season or two — we regularly find evidence of what was living in it. Ticks nest in leaf litter and tall grass. Ground wasps build colonies in undisturbed soil. Spiders take over dense vegetation, and rodents use thick ground cover for shelter. Once the habitat is gone, those populations don't disappear — they relocate toward the nearest structure. A perimeter barrier spray in the weeks after a major cleanup addresses that displacement directly.
Once a property is cleared and back to a manageable state, keeping it there is what regular mowing is for. Most properties coming out of an overgrown cleanup need two to three weeks before they can go on a standard mowing schedule — the ground needs to firm up and the remaining turf needs to stabilize. When that window passes, a consistent mowing schedule is what prevents the same situation from developing again.
Once the property is cleared, here's what we can take on in Hopewell Township for ongoing maintenance:
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.
Spring and fall cleanup — leaf removal, debris, bed edging, ornamental cutbacks, and disposal.
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.
