Fall Cleanup
Southern Wisconsin autumns are beautiful, but oak, maple, and ash leaves left on your lawn through November will mat down and smother the grass underneath – a real problem when spring arrives in Oconomowoc and the ground is still saturated. Martinez Landscaping handles the full fall yard cleanup so your lawn heads into winter clean and can green up properly come April. We work through the season as leaves drop, not just one visit at the end.
- Leaf removal from lawn, planting beds, and along fence lines – not just the open grass
- Bagging or hauling leaves off-site so you don’t have piles sitting at the curb for weeks
- Cutting back perennials and ornamental grasses that would otherwise hold moisture and rot over winter
- Clearing debris from gutters and downspout areas adjacent to the lawn
- Final mow at the right height for Wisconsin winters – typically 2.5 inches to reduce snow mold risk
- Bed edging cleanup so beds look defined going into the dormant season
How It Works
Our Process for Fall Cleanup
Free written estimate
We walk your property and give you a written quote based on actual lot size, tree count, and what needs to go. No guessing on price after the fact.
Schedule around the drop
We coordinate timing with you based on how far along your trees are. A single early visit often misses half the leaves, so we can schedule one visit or multiple passes depending on your yard.
Full cleanup and haul-out
The crew handles leaves, debris, and any agreed bed or perennial work. Everything is hauled off-site unless you want material composted on your property.
Final walkthrough
Before we leave, we confirm the scope is complete and note anything to address in spring – like bare patches that may need overseeding after the leaf mat is gone.

Common Questions
FAQ: Fall Cleanup
We can schedule one visit timed to when your trees are fully dropped, or two passes if you want the yard clear earlier in fall and then again after the late-droppers finish. We’ll talk through the timing when we do the estimate.
We haul everything off-site by default – no bags piling up waiting for your municipality’s leaf pickup. If you’d prefer leaves left bagged at the curb or composted on-site, just let us know.
It depends on your yard. If you have a mix of early and late-dropping trees, waiting can mean leaves are matted for weeks before we arrive. We’ll recommend a timing strategy that makes sense for your specific property.
