Cost Guide

How Much Does a Leaf Cleanup Cost?

Cleanups are priced by the size of the area that needs work. Here is our pricing, a few examples, and how to measure your own yard.

Short answer: Mulch Bros prices leaf and yard cleanups at $850 per acre of yard that needs cleaning up, with a $150 minimum. Gutter cleaning can be added for $2 a foot. Spring and fall cleanups are priced the same way.

Examples

Area that needs cleanupCleanup price
Small yard (under about 0.18 acre)$150 minimum
¼ acre$212.50
½ acre$425
1 acre$850
Add 150 ft of gutters+ $300

It is the part of the yard that needs work, not the whole lot. If your back half is woods you are not worried about, leave it out.

How to measure your yard

  • Google Maps: on a computer, right-click your yard, choose Measure distance, and click around the area that needs cleaning. Close the shape and Maps shows the area.
  • Property records: your survey or the county parcel map lists lot size. Subtract the house, driveway and any woods you are leaving alone.
  • Best guess: most subdivision lots around Milford are ¼ to ½ an acre. A rough number is fine.

Whichever you use, we double-check the acreage on satellite before your quote is final, so you are never stuck with a bad guess.

What a cleanup includes

Leaves come off the lawn and out of the beds, and we take them with us. Where a lot backs onto woods, ask about blowing leaves in instead of hauling them. Spring cleanups also clear out winter debris and sticks so the beds are ready for fresh mulch. More on timing in fall cleanups and spring cleanups.
