Spring & Fall Cleanup in Moncton, New Brunswick
Moncton, with a metropolitan population of approximately 79,000, is the bilingual hub of the Maritime provinces — approximately 35 percent of the population identifies as francophone, reflecting the Acadian heritage of southeastern New Brunswick. Located in zone 5b, the city's climate brings moderate precipitation (approximately 1,100 mm annually), cold winters (-9°C January average), and warm summers (24°C July average). Moncton's position as a regional transportation and commercial centre means it has a diverse mix of commercial properties requiring grounds maintenance, including the Champlain Place shopping complex, the Moncton Industrial Park, and the greater Dieppe commercial corridor.
Local Lawn Care Conditions
The Université de Moncton — the largest francophone university outside Quebec — maintains a campus with significant grounds requiring institutional-level care. The Magnetic Hill area, a popular tourist attraction and entertainment district, has commercial and hospitality properties with grounds maintenance needs during the tourism season. Moncton's residential neighbourhoods include the established homes of the West End and Lewisville, the newer developments of the north end near Wheeler Park, and the growing suburban community of Riverview across the Petitcodiac River. New Brunswick's cosmetic pesticide ban applies, and the region's acidic soils benefit from periodic lime applications.

Our Spring & Fall Cleanup Service
Seasonal transitions are critical moments for your lawn's health. Spring cleanup removes winter debris and sets the stage for vigorous summer growth, while fall cleanup protects your turf from snow mold, ice damage, and smothering leaf cover during the long Canadian winter. At Mow.ca, our comprehensive seasonal cleanup services handle every detail so your property enters and exits the growing season in optimal condition.
How It Works
Spring cleanup typically begins in April (or late March in milder regions like Southern Ontario and coastal BC) as soon as the ground is firm enough to walk on without damaging soft turf. Our spring service includes removal of fallen branches, twigs, and wind-blown debris; thorough raking of matted leaves and dead grass; garden bed edging to create clean lines between lawn and landscape areas; and an initial mow at a slightly lower height to remove dead grass tips and encourage new green growth.
Beyond the cosmetic cleanup, our crews perform a trained visual inspection for common winter damage. Snow mold — both grey snow mold (Typhula spp.) and pink snow mold (Microdochium nivale) — appears as circular matted patches of grey or pink discolored turf, common on lawns where snow cover persisted for extended periods. Frost heave can push shallow-rooted turf sections upward, creating uneven surfaces. Vole trails — serpentine paths of dead grass created by meadow voles tunnelling under snow cover — are common across the prairies and Eastern Canada. We document these issues and recommend appropriate remediation, whether it is dethatching, overseeding, or a corrective fertilizer application.
Why Choose This Service
Fall cleanup addresses the opposite end of the season. Our service includes thorough leaf removal using commercial backpack blowers and vacuum collection systems for efficient handling of high-volume leaf drop. In regions with heavy deciduous tree cover — common across Southern Ontario, Quebec, and the Maritimes — we offer multi-visit fall leaf programs with weekly or bi-weekly visits from October through late November to keep up with ongoing leaf drop.
The final fall mow is performed at a reduced height — 2 to 2.5 inches (5 to 6 cm) compared to the standard 3 to 3.5 inches — to minimize the leaf surface area that can harbour grey snow mold during winter. We also cut back perennial plants, clean and edge garden beds, and ensure that all organic debris is removed or composted. For clients with composting bins, we can deposit leaf and yard waste directly; otherwise, material is removed for municipal green waste processing.
Pricing & Scheduling
Spring cleanup pricing ranges from $100 to $300 depending on property size and debris volume. Fall cleanup runs $100 to $400, with multi-visit leaf programs priced separately based on tree cover density and number of visits required. Many clients bundle both seasonal cleanups with their mowing contract for seamless year-round property care.
