Frequently Asked Questions About Property Cleanup
What's included in professional property cleanup?
Our property cleanup services include: fallen tree and branch removal, debris chipping and hauling, leaf and yard waste removal, brush and overgrowth clearing, gutter cleaning, seasonal bed preparation, and complete site restoration. We bring all necessary equipment including chippers, trucks, and hauling trailers. Nothing is left behind - your property is cleaner than when we arrived.
How much does property cleanup cost?
Property cleanup costs vary widely based on scope: small residential cleanup (single tree/branch): $300-$600; medium cleanup (storm damage, multiple trees): $600-$1,500; large property cleanup (overgrowth, multiple areas): $1,500-$3,500+. Seasonal packages (spring or fall) typically range $400-$800 for average properties. We provide free, detailed estimates before starting work.
Do you offer emergency storm cleanup?
Yes - we provide 24/7 emergency storm damage response throughout Lansing, Onondaga, and surrounding areas. We prioritize hazards that affect safety and access: trees on structures, blocked driveways, and dangerous hanging branches. During widespread storm events, we work around the clock until all emergency situations are resolved. Emergency service is available at any time - just call (517) 202-3840.
When is the best time for seasonal property cleanup?
Spring cleanup (March-May) addresses winter damage, removes debris, and prepares beds for growing season - ideal timing before lawns fully green up. Fall cleanup (October-November) removes leaves, clears gutters, and winterizes your property before snow. Both seasonal cleanups prevent lawn damage and pest issues. We recommend at least one thorough seasonal cleanup annually.
Can you work with my insurance for storm damage cleanup?
Absolutely - we regularly work with insurance companies for storm damage claims. We provide detailed documentation including photos, written assessments, and itemized invoices that meet insurance requirements. Many policies cover tree debris removal when damage occurs to insured structures. We can even communicate directly with your adjuster to streamline the process. Contact us immediately after storm damage for proper documentation.
