Garden Soon is available for yard cleanup in Patterson Heights, Beaver County at $175–$400 / $200–$500 per service. Mid-20th century suburban residential character — the borough was developed largely in the postwar era as an elevated residential extension of the Beaver Falls area. That's the context every cleanup here starts from.
The case for hiring this out comes down to scale and timing. In a suburban Pittsburgh yard with two or three mature oaks, you're not dealing with a manageable leaf problem — you're dealing with what can be four or five inches of wet, matted leaves by mid-November. Mulch-mowing that is not an option. Bagging it by hand takes a full day for one person, assuming the bags don't keep tearing. We come with a truck, a trailer, blowers, and a crew that does this every week across dozens of properties. We move fast because we do it constantly. The timing issue is real too. There's a narrow window in fall after peak drop but before the ground freezes where cleanup is effective. Miss it and you're doing it in the cold or leaving the mat on through winter. In spring, every week of delay between snowmelt and cleanup is another week of smothering. Lawns that don't get cleaned up on time come out of winter thin, patchy, and vulnerable to crabgrass and weeds. We've seen the before and after enough times to know that the cleanup is almost always worth it.
For Patterson Heights specifically: mid-20th century suburban residential character — the borough was developed largely in the postwar era as an elevated residential extension of the Beaver Falls area. Lots are moderate in size with straightforward layouts. Properties here are generally well-maintained with established lawn care histories.
A standard cleanup includes leaf removal from turf and beds, stick and branch pickup, bed cleanup (removing dead stems and debris), bed edging with a blade or stick edger, and blowdown of hard surfaces like driveways and walkways. Haul-away is included when a trailer is needed. What's not included: mowing, fertilizing, mulch installation, or gutter cleaning. Those are separate services we can quote if needed.
Before: It's early November. The lawn hasn't been visible for two weeks. Leaves are layered three to four inches deep across the turf, heavier along the fence lines where wind has piled them. The beds are buried. The edges between lawn and bed have disappeared under the mat. Twigs and small branches are mixed in from the last windstorm. The property looks abandoned even though it isn't.
During: We move through it systematically — blow, rake, load, edge. The turf comes back into view in sections. Beds get cleared down to soil. The edger cuts a clean line along every bed border. Heavy material goes into the trailer in loads.
After: The lawn is visible and breathing again. Turf that was smothered can now get light and air through late fall. The beds are clean, the edges are defined, and the property has that looked-after appearance that's hard to fake. Going into winter with the lawn uncovered means the grass crowns are in better condition, and come spring, the turf breaks dormancy without a mat of rotting leaf material sitting on top of it.
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.

The borough sits on elevated ground above Beaver Falls and the Beaver River valley — a more plateau-like position than the river corridor boroughs. Most residential lots are relatively flat compared to the hillside towns along the river. Equipment access is generally straightforward on the established residential streets. We adjust our equipment and approach based on what's actually there.
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.
Yes, and it's more important, not less, if the fall cleanup didn't happen. Leaves that sat on the lawn all winter form a mat that can smother turf and create dead patches that need recovery work in spring. Spring cleanup in that situation often involves more debris, heavier matting, and more ground-level work to uncover the lawn. We'll assess the damage when we arrive and let you know if there are any areas that look like they'll need extra attention beyond the cleanup itself.
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 Patterson Heights — 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.
