Spring Clean Ups generally happen in the mid/late spring through early summer, depending on the weather that season.  Fall Clean Ups happen after the leaves have all fallen. Oak trees are the last to drop their leaves in our area, so fall clean ups on properties with many oak trees are generally completed towards the end of December or January.

A clean up includes removing leaves and debris off of the lawn and blowing out beds, lawn mowing (if applicable) and cleaning out gutters (if applicable).  We can also offer trimming services for perennials and bushes and shrubs while onsite for a clean up.  Clean ups are priced by hourly labor and dump fee for debris.

​

CCT&L offers weekly and bi-weekly lawn mowing services.  Irrigated lawns are mowed weekly or as needed.  Bi-weekly lawns are scheduled to be checked and mowed if needed every other week.  The lawn crew is trained to check the lawns by reviewing the property and if it is not needed it be mowed they will "skip" the lawn and notify the office to schedule it to be checked the following week.  CCT&L only charges if the lawn has been mowed, but if the lawn is extra long due to excessive growth or from a requested skip from the customer, a double mow fee may be added.  CCT&L invoices for lawn mowing on a weekly basis.  Invoices are sent by email on Monday and the provided credit cards are charged on Tuesday giving our customers a day to review their invoices and contact us if necessary.  CCT&L GPS monitors their crews/trucks with date/time stamps at each property if you ever have a question regarding mowing times.  Our crews mow different towns and areas on designated days, we do our best to mow consistently on that day, though occasionally weather, equipment issues or staff illness may effect our mowing schedule.

CCT&L Lawn mowing crew will mow the lawn with a professional grade mower, "weed-whack" or string trim along the edges of the lawn and blow off hard surfaces (walkways, patios) to remove grass clipping or debris.  The crew can bag lawn clippings if requested (*please be sure to notify office or sales rep of that added request.)
