You’ve got better things to do than spend your weekends raking leaves and cleaning gutters. Our fall cleanup service handles everything from leaf removal to gutter cleaning, so your property looks great and stays protected through winter.

Rolling Hills Property Services has been taking care of Suffolk County properties for years. We know exactly what Holbrook lawns need to survive Long Island winters, and we’ve seen what happens when fall cleanup gets skipped or done wrong.
Our team is fully licensed and insured, which means you’re protected if anything goes wrong. But more importantly, we show up when we say we will and finish the job completely the first time.
We’re not the cheapest option in town, and that’s intentional. You’re paying for reliable service, proper equipment, and people who know the difference between a quick cleanup and one that actually protects your property.
First, we assess your property to identify what needs attention. Every yard is different, so we look at leaf coverage, gutter condition, and any specific problem areas that need extra work.
Then we handle the complete cleanup systematically. Leaves get removed from lawns, beds, and hardscapes. Gutters get cleaned and checked for proper drainage. Debris gets hauled away completely, not just moved to another part of your property.
Finally, we do a walkthrough with you to make sure everything meets your standards. If something doesn’t look right, we fix it before we leave. You get a property that’s ready for winter and a clear understanding of what was done.

Your fall cleanup covers everything needed to prepare your Holbrook property for winter. Leaf removal from all lawn areas, flower beds, and walkways. Gutter cleaning and debris removal. Pruning of dead or damaged branches that could cause problems in winter storms.
Long Island’s fall weather can be unpredictable, with early storms that dump wet, heavy leaves on lawns that aren’t ready. The cleanup timing matters here because leaves left too long can create fungal problems that show up as dead spots next spring.
The service also includes complete debris removal from your property. Everything gets hauled away properly, not dumped somewhere else on your land. You get a clean property without having to deal with disposal yourself.
The ideal timing for fall cleanup in Holbrook is typically late October through early December, depending on when leaves finish dropping. You want to wait until most trees have shed their leaves, but not so long that wet weather makes cleanup difficult or leaves start damaging your lawn.
Scheduling early in the season gives you more flexibility with dates and ensures the work gets done before winter weather hits. Most homeowners in Suffolk County find that waiting until after the first hard frost gives them the best timing, since that’s when most deciduous trees finish dropping leaves.
If you have mostly oak trees, you might need to wait a bit longer since oaks tend to hold their leaves later into the season than maples or other trees common in the Holbrook area.
Fall cleanup costs in Holbrook typically range from $200 to $800 depending on property size, leaf coverage, and what services you need. A basic cleanup on a quarter-acre lot with moderate leaf coverage usually runs $300-500, while larger properties or those with heavy leaf coverage cost more.
The price includes complete leaf removal, basic gutter cleaning, and debris haul-away. Additional services like extensive pruning, mulching, or gutter repairs would add to the base cost. Properties with difficult access or extremely heavy leaf coverage may also cost more due to the extra time and effort required.
Getting an accurate estimate requires looking at your specific property since every yard has different needs. Factors like the number and types of trees, lawn size, and accessibility all affect the final price.
You don’t need to be home during the entire cleanup, but it’s helpful to be available at the beginning and end of the service. We’ll want to walk through your property initially to understand your priorities and identify any areas that need special attention.
Most of the actual work happens without requiring your input. Our crew knows what needs to be done and can work efficiently while you’re at work or handling other responsibilities. We’ll text or call if we run into any unexpected issues that need your decision.
Being available when we finish allows you to do a final walkthrough and address any concerns before we leave. This ensures you’re completely satisfied with the work and gives you a chance to ask questions about what was done.
Professional fall cleanup should never damage your lawn or landscaping when done correctly. We use proper equipment and techniques to remove leaves without disturbing grass roots or compacting soil. We avoid working on wet lawns when possible to prevent soil compaction.
For flower beds and planted areas, we’re careful to remove leaves without disturbing mulch or damaging plants. Delicate plants get hand-cleaned rather than using blowers that might cause damage. Any pruning is done according to proper horticultural practices for the specific plants involved.
The bigger risk to your lawn actually comes from skipping fall cleanup. Thick leaf layers left on grass over winter create fungal problems and dead spots that show up in spring. Professional cleanup prevents this damage while protecting your landscaping investment.
All leaves and debris get hauled away from your property as part of the service. The material goes to appropriate disposal or composting facilities, not dumped illegally or left for you to deal with. This is included in your cleanup cost, so you don’t have additional disposal fees.
We can offer to leave shredded leaves for you to use as mulch if you want them, but most homeowners prefer complete removal. Shredded leaves can work as mulch in flower beds, but they need to be applied correctly to avoid creating problems.
The goal is leaving you with a completely clean property, not just moving debris from one area to another. Everything that gets cleaned up gets removed from your property entirely, giving you a fresh start for winter.
Yes, gutter cleaning is typically included as part of our comprehensive fall cleanup service. This includes removing leaves and debris from gutters and downspouts, checking for proper water flow, and identifying any obvious problems that might need repair.
Basic gutter cleaning covers debris removal and ensuring water flows properly through the system. If gutters need repairs, resealing, or replacement, that would be quoted separately since it requires different materials and expertise than basic cleaning.
Clean gutters are essential for protecting your Holbrook home during winter weather. Clogged gutters can lead to ice dams, water damage, and expensive repairs. Including gutter cleaning in your fall cleanup ensures your property is completely prepared for winter weather.
