Those with lawn maintenance service...a question..

with the leaves falling now, what does your service do with them? Mulch them? bag them? or blow them in to the flower beds?

The ones on the lawn they just mow right over. 1st they blow the ones on the driveway into the lawn and then mow them.

They came over today. Our lawn was mowed this past weekend, so they did not mow it. There were leaves. The guy left it. They did not aerate our lawn because the PH of the soil was good. They used some machine that undecuts the grass shoving seeds underneath and throwing them on top as well. I asked if I should rake the leaves anytime soon and he just said to leave them for the next few weeks since all the leaves haven't fallen yet (if the pro tells me not to rake, I will take him on his word lol) Hopefully we will have a nice looking lawn next year! We have a contract with this company, so we are already on a schedule for next spring! I hope your lawn turns out great!

We dont do the fall clean up with our service but I watch them do our neighbors.

They mow anything on the lawn, then they rake out the beds and bag the rest. They take them with them though.

Our lawn maintenance service mowed our lawn yesterday. They mowed over all the leaves on the grass and blew all the cut up leaves and leaves from the edges of the yard into bags and took them away. My yard looked so nice and neat yesterday, but today it's full of leaves again. Fall is so annoying.

See, the guys are BLOWING the leaves into the beds and the window wells and I am not happy about it at all. I thought it was strange. All the leaves were blown up and all over the flower beds. DH is going to have to speak to him.
