Fall cleanup is the bridge between Fort Wayne's growing season and winter. Leaves, branches, and organic debris left on your lawn going into winter create conditions for snow mold, turf disease, and pest problems that show up the following spring. Our fall cleanup service removes all seasonal debris, prepares your turf for dormancy, and sets your property up to survive winter in the best possible condition.
Fort Wayne's mature tree canopy of oaks, maples, and elms drops a heavy volume of leaves each fall. Left unmanaged, this material mats down under early snow and traps moisture against cool-season turf for months. The result is dead patches, fungal damage, and a spring recovery that costs more time and money than the cleanup would have. We time fall cleanup visits based on actual leaf drop in your specific neighborhood so the work gets done at the right window.

Full leaf removal from lawn areas, planting beds, and hardscape surfaces. All material hauled off your property so nothing sits on your turf through winter.
Fallen branches, seed pods, and organic debris cleared from your entire yard. Gutter-adjacent areas cleaned to prevent ice dam conditions during winter.
Final mow at the correct height for winter dormancy followed by a full property inspection. Your lawn enters winter clean and at the right blade length to resist snow mold.

Our residential lawn care and snow removal services extend beyond Fort Wayne into the neighboring communities that make up our tight service area.

Keeping our radius tight means faster snow response times in winter and reliable mowing schedules all summer long.

Frequently Asked Questions
Lawn Care And Snow Removal can be complex, and we’re here to provide answers to common questions. Here are some frequently asked questions from our clients.
Fort Wayne sits in USDA Zone 5b with heavy clay soil and 33.6 inches of average annual snowfall. These conditions mean your lawn needs cool-season grass varieties like Kentucky bluegrass and tall fescue, while your property requires reliable snow clearing from late November through early March. A year-round service partner handles both seasons so your property stays maintained regardless of weather conditions.
We recommend weekly mowing from mid-April through October and on-call snow clearing services from November through March. During seasonal transitions in spring and fall, cleanup services bridge the gap between winter damage recovery and active growing season maintenance. This keeps your property looking sharp every month of the year.
Most residential lawn mowing visits take between 30 and 60 minutes depending on lot size and terrain. Snow clearing timelines depend on accumulation, but we prioritize getting your driveway, sidewalks, and entrances cleared within hours of snowfall so you can get to work safely. We work around Fort Wayne's 18 snow route priority system so residential areas get prompt attention.
Allen County's heavy clay soil compacts easily and drains poorly, which means lawns need regular attention to stay healthy. Compacted clay suffocates grass roots and creates standing water after rain or snowmelt. Proper mowing height, seasonal cleanup, and timely edging all help manage clay soil challenges specific to Fort Wayne properties.
We serve residential properties throughout Fort Wayne and surrounding communities including New Haven, Huntertown, Leo-Cedarville, Grabill, and Woodburn. Our tight service radius means faster response times for snow clearing and consistent scheduling for lawn mowing throughout the growing season.

Fall cleanup in Fort Wayne typically runs from mid-October through late November depending on when the mature oaks and maples finish dropping leaves. Starting too early means a second round of cleanup. We time visits based on actual leaf drop patterns in your neighborhood rather than a fixed calendar date.
A complete fall cleanup covers leaf removal from lawn areas and beds, clearing of gutters and downspout areas, removal of fallen branches and debris, and a final mow at the right height to prepare your turf for winter dormancy. This prevents snow mold and smothering that damages Fort Wayne lawns over winter.
Leaves left on cool-season turf through winter trap moisture against the grass and create ideal conditions for snow mold and fungal disease. With Fort Wayne's 33 plus inches of annual snowfall sitting on top of matted leaves, the damage compounds quickly. A clean lawn going into winter recovers faster in spring.
Yes. All leaves and debris are removed from your property during cleanup. We coordinate with Allen County waste collection schedules when possible and handle full removal so your yard is clean and ready for the first snowfall.

They mowed our lawn all summer and cleared our driveway every time it snowed last winter. Not having to find a separate snow removal company was a huge relief. The crew always showed up when they said they would and our yard looked great from April straight through to the next spring.

I work early mornings and my driveway and sidewalk were always cleared before I left for the day. That matters when Fort Wayne gets hit with those overnight storms. Come spring they were right back out cleaning up and getting the lawn ready for mowing season. Best decision I made was going year-round with one company.
James T., New Haven

Our property is on a corner lot with a long sidewalk that Fort Wayne requires us to keep clear. They handle the sidewalk, the driveway, and our front entrance every snow event without us even calling. In summer the edging and mowing keep our corner lot looking better than it ever has. Reliable, professional, and they actually know what they are doing.
