Local Conditions
Why Does Yard Clean Up Work Differently in New Orleans?
Yard clean up works differently in New Orleans because our live oaks shed their leaves in spring, hurricane season runs from June 1 through November 30, and City of New Orleans curbside pickup takes only a limited amount of yard waste at a time. Bigger jobs, and the debris after a storm, usually need to be hauled away.
- Leaf drop comes in spring.LSU AgCenter notes live oaks hold their leaves all year except a short window in spring.
- Storm season is long.Yard drains, catch basins, and downspout outlets are best cleared at the start of hurricane season and again midway.
- Curbside pickup has limits.The City of New Orleans takes fewer than six bags of yard waste and fewer than six bundles of small limbs per pickup.
What We Clear
What Yard Debris Does Clean Up and Hauling Remove in New Orleans?
Clean up and hauling in New Orleans removes the yard debris that builds up through the year: leaves and grass clippings, fallen branches and limbs, overgrown grass, weeds, and vines, and the mixed debris a storm leaves behind. We gather it, load it, and haul it off so the yard is ready to mow again.
Leaves and Clippings
Light, loose debris
Raked off the lawn and beds, not into the street, where LSU AgCenter warns they reach storm drains.
Branches and Limbs
Woody debris
Fallen limbs and cut branches are gathered and hauled. Anything overhanging a structure or near a utility line belongs to a certified arborist.
Overgrowth
Dense growth
Tall grass, weeds, and vines are cut back, with a check for hidden debris underneath.
Storm Debris
After a storm
Leaves, limbs, and scattered debris left by a storm are gathered, loaded, and hauled away.
City curbside limits follow nola.gov. For larger loads, hauling saves the extra trips.

FAQ
What Do People Ask About Yard Clean Up in New Orleans?
what does a yard clean up consist of?
A yard clean up usually consists of raking leaves and clippings, picking up fallen branches and limbs, cutting back overgrown grass, weeds, and vines, and clearing beds and walks. In New Orleans, our clean ups also include loading the debris and hauling it away.
how do you clean up an overgrown yard?
Start by walking the yard and clearing out leaves, twigs, and hidden debris that could get in the way of mowing or new grass. Cut the tall growth back with the mower set high enough that the grass is not cut too short, haul away the cuttings, then mow regularly but not too short.
how do you clean up leaves in your yard?
Rake or blow the leaves into piles away from the street, then bag them, compost them, or use them as mulch. LSU AgCenter suggests chopping leaves before using them in beds and warns against blowing them into the street, where they reach storm drains.
when should you do a spring yard clean up?
In New Orleans, plan a spring yard clean up for March through May, when live oaks shed their leaves and the lawn starts its spring growth. Clearing the yard then also gives you time to clear drains and downspout outlets before hurricane season opens on June 1.
how do you clean up yard debris after a storm?
Gather leaves, limbs, and scattered debris, and leave anything overhanging a structure or near a utility line to a certified arborist. In New Orleans, keep bagged household trash separate from storm debris, never dump debris on neutral grounds or vacant lots, and call 311 for City pickup requests.
how do you dispose of yard waste in New Orleans?
New Orleans collects yard waste on trash day when it sits next to the cart: fewer than six bags and fewer than six bundles of small limbs under 4 feet, each 50 pounds or less. Setting it out more than 24 hours early can bring a fine.
what is the best yard cleanup service?
The best yard cleanup service is one that clears everything you point out, hauls the debris away instead of leaving it at the curb, and sends a fully insured professional. In New Orleans, we start every job with a free, no-obligation estimate and back the work with our satisfaction guarantee.
how much does a yard clean up cost in New Orleans?
The cost of a yard clean up in New Orleans depends on the size of the yard, how much debris there is, how overgrown it has become, and how much needs hauling. The most accurate number comes from a free on-site estimate, which we provide with no obligation.
