What's Included in a Spring Yard Cleanup
A typical spring lawn cleanup or yard maintenance service includes:
-
Picking up sticks, branches, and winter debris
-
Clearing leftover leaves from lawn and beds
-
First mow and edge (if grass is growing)
-
Pruning shrubs back from walkways and beds
-
Optional mulch refresh for beds and tree rings
When to Do Spring Yard Clean Up in Chicago
Most homeowners in Chicago schedule spring yard clean up when the yard dries out and the first real growth starts. If you're dealing with winter debris or storm mess, you can do the cleanup earlier. If you're planning mulch or pruning, it often makes sense to do those right after the cleanup, not weeks later.
For many yards, the best timing is:
-
Late Feb–Mar
Debris pickup, leftover leaves, first cut if needed
-
Mar–Apr
Shrub pruning, bed cleanup, edging
-
Apr–May
Mulch refresh, regular mowing rhythm
Weather tip
If rain is stacked up, aim for the first 2-day dry window. Working on wet grass can damage your lawn and make cleanup harder.
-
Clear debris so you can mow safely
-
Prune shrubs that block walkways or beds
-
Edge once early to reset borders
-
Keep mowing consistent once growth starts
-
Refresh mulch where it's thin
-
Watch for bare patches after winter damage
