Yes, Garden Soon serves Ohioville for spring and fall yard cleanup — $175–$400 / $200–$500 for most Beaver County lots. Rural residential character throughout — older farmhouses, newer rural builds, and some riverside properties. We factor that in when scoping each cleanup job.
Spring and fall cleanups are different jobs, and we treat them that way. In spring, we're pulling out the damage from winter — dead annual stalks, matted leaves that smothered the grass, sticks and small branches from storms, and anything that got lodged in beds and corners over the cold months. We cut back ornamental grasses, blow out window wells and bed borders where leaves pack in, and run a blade edger along the bed lines to sharpen everything up. Timing matters in spring — we try to get cleanups done before soil temperatures hit 50°F, because that's when pre-emergent crabgrass control needs to go down, and matted debris under a lawn can delay that. Fall cleanups focus on volume. We're either mulch-mowing thin layers back into the turf or bagging and hauling heavy accumulation. We rake beds, remove spent perennial stems, define edges, and load the trailer. Western PA leaf volume from mature oaks and sycamores is not something you can just blow into a pile and mow over — it has to be managed.
For Ohioville specifically: rural residential character throughout — older farmhouses, newer rural builds, and some riverside properties. Very few properties have the compact urban lot character of the larger boroughs. Most clients in Ohioville have more ground to maintain than typical suburban clients, with yard boundaries that blend into agricultural or wooded land.
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 typically runs $175–$400 for a standard suburban lot. Fall cleanup runs $200–$500 for a single visit. What drives variation: lot size, number of mature trees, how heavy the accumulation is, and whether we need to haul debris or can leave bags for municipal pickup.

Rolling rural terrain near the Ohio-Pennsylvania border. Lot sizes are larger than the river boroughs. Properties here often have sections that aren't formally maintained as lawn, and the managed/unmanaged boundary needs to be clearly established. Rural road access and longer driveways add to scheduling complexity. We adjust our equipment and approach based on what's actually there.
No, you don't need to be home for us to do the cleanup. As long as we have access to the areas we're working — back yard gate unlocked, no dogs left out — we can do the full job and send you a message when we're done. Most of our customers aren't home when we come. If there's anything specific about your property we should know, just tell us when you book.
Yes, and for fall cleanup this is often the right call. Waiting for every tree to drop before scheduling means you're often waiting until late November, which can push into cold, wet conditions that make the job harder and the scheduling tighter. We'd rather clean up the main volume from maples and sycamores in late October and come back for a second pass after the oaks let go than try to do one perfect cleanup that never comes because there are always a few leaves still holding on.
Yes, bed cleanup and edging are included in our standard cleanup visits — they're not an add-on you have to request separately. We rake beds clear, remove spent stems, and run a blade or stick edger along all bed borders. Edging is often the single thing that makes the biggest visual difference on a property, and we do it as part of every cleanup. If you want bed edging as a standalone service without a full cleanup, we can do that too for $85–$175 depending on the linear footage.
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 Ohioville — 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.
