How It Works

1
Property Walk & Quote

We walk your property and assess what needs to be done — spring reset, ongoing maintenance, fall prep, or all three. You get a firm price before any work starts.

2
Spring Cleanup

Dead material from winter is raked and cleared. Beds are weeded and edged. Shrubs and ornamentals are pruned back to encourage new growth. The lawn is prepped for its first mow.

3
In-Season Maintenance

Regular visits through the growing season to handle weeds before they take over, trim shrubs as they grow, and keep everything looking maintained.

4
Fall Cleanup

Leaves and spent plant material cleared. Final pruning before dormancy. Beds cleaned and edged. Everything shut down properly before the first frost hits.

5
Debris Hauling

Every visit, we take everything with us. No piles left at the curb, no overflowing yard waste bins — the property is clean when we leave.

  • Consistent crews who learn your property over time
  • No contracts — book once, schedule as needed, cancel anytime
  • 7 days a week availability through the full growing season

Okanagan Tips

  • Book spring cleanup in March in Kelowna — not when the weather warms up. By the time it looks ready outside, the schedule is already packed.
  • Don't cut back ornamental grasses in fall. Leave them standing through winter — the dry plumes look intentional and the crowns are better protected from frost.
  • Fall is the right time to trim most shrubs in Kelowna — after the first frost but before hard freeze. Trimming in late summer can stimulate tender new growth that gets frost-damaged.
  • If you have cedar hedges, they need trimming by early September at the latest. Trimming after the weather cools can stress the hedge going into winter.

Common Questions

When should I book spring cleanup in Kelowna?

Spring cleanup in Kelowna is best done in March, once the ground has dried out from snowmelt and before weeds get established. We strongly recommend booking early — our spring schedule fills fast, typically by late March for April and May availability. Call (250) 307-9220 to reserve your spot.

What's included in a yard cleanup in Kelowna?

Our cleanups cover weed removal, leaf raking, debris clearing, bed edging, shrub and ornamental trimming, cedar hedge cleanup, lawn mowing, and full debris hauling. We assess your property and tailor the scope to what it actually needs — not a checklist-driven visit.

Do you do fall cleanup before the early to mid-October first frost?

Yes. Fall cleanup in Kelowna should be wrapped up before the first frost, typically in early to mid-October. We clear leaves, cut back spent plants, clean beds, do final trimming, and leave the yard properly prepared for winter. Book your fall cleanup in August or September — it fills up quickly.

How much does yard maintenance cost in Kelowna?

A single seasonal cleanup (spring or fall) typically runs $200–$600+ depending on property size and the scope of work needed. Ongoing monthly maintenance packages are priced per visit based on property size. We always provide a free estimate before any work begins. Call (250) 307-9220.
