Leaf Blowing in Randleman, NC

Close enough to come back

Randleman is about eight miles north of Asheboro, straight up US 220. It's one of the quickest towns for me to reach. That helps in the fall, because a yard that needs clearing every couple of weeks is easy to get back to.

Shady yards by the lake and the river

Yards out toward Randleman Lake and the Deep River can be shadier and damper than an open lot. More trees means more leaves, and shade means they stay wet once they're down.

Grass under trees already grows slower and thinner than the rest of the yard. Leave a damp layer of leaves on it all winter and it loses what little light it had. Clearing it before winter is easier than fixing a thin, patchy spot in the spring.

Where the leaves end up

Randleman yards tend to have more open ground and more fence line than an in-town lot. Wind pushes leaves across an open yard until they hit something, and that something is usually the fence. I clear the fence line and the beds, not just the middle of the lawn.

Big lots toward Level Cross

North of town toward Level Cross, a lot of the properties are big and open. A big yard with a treeline takes real time to clear, so the price follows the size of the ground. Send me the address and I will give you a real number.

Leaf blowing in Randleman: common questions

Is Randleman close enough for more than one leaf visit?

Yes. It's about eight miles north of Asheboro on US 220, one of the closest towns I serve, so coming back every couple of weeks is easy.

My yard is shady and the leaves stay wet. Is that a problem?

No, but it's a reason not to leave them. Wet leaves on shaded grass mat down and block the light, so those yards are worth clearing more than once in the fall.

Do you clear the fence line and the beds?

Yes. A leaf visit covers the whole property, including the beds and the fence line, where most of the leaves end up.

Do you haul the leaves off?

Yes, or I pile them wherever you want them. Say which when you ask for a price.
