Real Experiences From GreenPal Fairfax Users
Went above and beyond to make sure my job got completed when they said that it would despite whether issues and equipment issues. Lawn looks great! I look forward to having you back!
Best value and service for the DMV area. Thank you! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
Victor did a great job on our lawn. He was fast, thorough and friendly. I’ll be using him regularly and am so happy to have found someone reliable to take care of our lawn.
We just used GreenPal for the first time for a property we have out of state. The grass had not been mowed in a couple months. I found GreenPal and I immediately found a gardener to mow and as of today, the grass is back to normal. I found the process simple to use and I had no issues. And the gardener I found was extremely responsive and did exactly what we needed him to do. I would highly recommend.
Very easy to work with. Responds quickly. Does an awesome Job!
Did a great job, in and out in less than 20 minutes!
Great job, courteous staff
Very quick and neat. Did an awesome job even with the rain on our cut day. Yard looks great, thank you
I had to hire a second service, as the first company didn't work out. But the second company we hired (Dirty Hands, LLC) did a very nice job. Very respectful of the property. Did his job with no fanfare and left. The service was easy to use, payment is a breeze. Will continue to use this service.
So nice to get service without having to make multiple calls and trying to find out pricing and then actually have someone show up when I need them! Great site , great service!

Protect Gutters and
Roof From Leaf Buildup

Add-on available: 60% of leaf removal customers also book gutter cleaning
Leaves on Your Lawn
and Grass
Leaving thick layers of leaves on grass can block sunlight and trap moisture. Local pros typically recommend removing heavy leaf buildup before extended wet periods to reduce the risk of lawn damage. Light mulching can help, but it depends on coverage and grass type.
Local timing tip: Clear leaves before wet periods to prevent matting
Fall Leaf Cleanup Timing in Fairfax
Fall leaf cleanup in Fairfax typically starts in mid-October and continues through late November, as trees shed leaves in waves rather than all at once. Most homeowners schedule one to two cleanups during this period, depending on tree density and weather.
On average, 200 lawns are cleaned up in the Fairfax area by GreenPal pros, at an average cost of $50 per job
For many yards, the best timing is:
-
Late October
for the first cleanup to prevent heavy buildup
-
Mid to late November
for a final seasonal cleanup
If leaves are left too long, they can trap moisture, block sunlight, and create slippery surfaces on walkways and driveways.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about Leaf Removal in Fairfax
How much does leaf removal cost in Fairfax?
Prices vary based on yard size, but most Fairfax residents see bids ranging from $100 to $450. The final price depends on whether you want them bagged, mulched, or hauled away.
Is there a minimum fee for leaf services?
Most local pros have a service minimum (often around $75) to cover travel and equipment setup for small lots.
Does leaf volume affect the price?
Yes. A yard with "ankle-deep" leaves requires significantly more man-hours than a light dusting.
Can I get a free estimate for leaf removal near me?
Yes, listing your yard on GreenPal triggers multiple free bids from local Fairfax vendors within hours.
Is an hourly rate or a flat fee better?
Flat fees are standard on GreenPal, so you know the exact cost before the pro starts.
Should I mulch my leaves or have them hauled away?
This depends on your lawn's health and your budget. Below is a quick breakdown to help you decide:
| Feature | Mulching (Eco-Option) | Hauling (Full Removal) |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Benefit | Natural fertilizer; improves soil | Instant "spotless" curb appeal |
| Cost | Lower (usually part of a mow) | Higher (labor + disposal fees) |
| Time | Fast (single pass with mower) | Long (blowing, bagging, loading) |
| Lawn Health | Boosts nutrients; suppresses weeds | Prevents mold; lets grass breathe |
| Best For... | Light to moderate leaf cover | Heavy leaves or pine needles |
| Limitation | Can't handle wet/thick leaf mats | Loses the natural "free" nutrients |
Do you haul away leaves or just blow them?
Most Fairfax pros offer both. You can choose to have them blown to the curb for city pickup or hauled away for an additional disposal fee.
Is leaf blowing enough or do I need full leaf removal?
If you have a wooded area, blowing them into the tree line is enough. For manicured lawns, full removal is better to prevent the wind from blowing them back.
Do leaf removal pros bring their own bags?
Yes, Fairfax vendors generally bring heavy-duty bags, but it’s always good to confirm in the app chat.
How fast can I get leaf removal service near me?
Through GreenPal, most users in Fairfax can get a pro on their lawn within 24 to 48 hours of posting the job.
