When to Do Spring Yard Clean Up in Washington
Most homeowners in Washington 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
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

Thank you Mr Cortez!! Would you'd you also give me an estimate for mulch on all the beds? I'd prefer dark brown or black.

Very quick and got front yard done within hours of me booking my lawn mowing service. However, they did not provide photos of backyard and did not confirm completion of backyard. I feel I paid for full service but only recieved half the job.
