We are still accepting leaf cleanup clients for fall 2020. We can do everything from simple mulching to recycle leaves into nutrients for the grass to full fledged removals including hauling off leaves. And everything in between.

We can also do curbside leaf and other yard debris pickup... you rake them to the curb, we’ll haul them off and save you the time and aggravation of bagging them or burning them.

Call or message and we’d be happy to take a look at your project!

I can load these directly into your truck or trailer, or can deliver right to your driveway with no mess!

Read below for a special referral opportunity!!!

Now that spring has arrived (I think), keep Herrick Lawn Service in mind for all your outdoor maintenance needs! Although mowing is my main focus, I can also do:

Bush and Tree Trimming
Hardwood Mulch - delivery and installation
Annual plantings
Garden Tilling
Spring Clean-ups

I also still have well seasoned firewood available for camping or if you just want to stock up for next year!

Most of my advertising is word of mouth, which means I rely on current customers, friends, and family to help spread the word. As a big “Thank You!” I’d like to offer anyone who sends me a referral that either signs on for mowing services, or spends more than $200 in other services $50 in credit with Herrick Lawn Service!

Thanks again and here’s to a great summer!!

Fall is officially upon us, and soon the yards will be covered in leaves. What looked so beautiful just a few days ago has just become a huge pain in the neck (or back!)

I am here to help. I have many options for making leaves disappear... My favorite is mulching. With special blades on the mower and a mulch kit installed I can reduce an unbelievable amount of leaves to free organic fertilizer for your lawn.

Read up on what the University of Illinois extension has to say on the topic: http://urbanext.illinois.edu/hortihints/0010a.html

In heavily wooded areas with native stands of trees, let the leaves lie as they fall. The trees need the natural leaf litter. Leaves enrich the soil’s nutrients and quality for maximum root growth. However, if you have lawn beneath the trees, the leaves must be removed or the grass may be smothered.

Small landscaping project from the other day. Older customer wanted something simple and very low maintenance.
