Spring Cleanup Services
Everything your yard needs after winter
Charlotte winters are hard on landscaping. CLT Pros handles every aspect of spring yard refresh — from clearing out dead growth and refreshing mulch to planting seasonal color and cleaning up your beds for the season ahead.
Mulching
Fresh mulch protects plant roots, retains moisture, and gives your beds a clean, finished look that holds through the growing season.
- Removal of old, decomposed mulch
- Install 2–3″ of fresh hardwood or pine mulch
- Mulch pulled back from tree trunks to prevent rot
- Color and material selection to match your landscape
- Delivery and full installation included
Weeding & Bed Cleanup
Full garden bed clearance — removing weeds, dead plant material, winter debris, and anything else competing with your plants for nutrients and water.
- Hand-pulling and root removal of all weeds
- Removal of dead annuals and spent perennial foliage
- Clearing of winter debris, leaves, and sticks
- Pre-emergent weed barrier application available

Planting
Seasonal color, shrubs, perennials, and ground covers — CLT Pros sources and installs plants suited to Charlotte’s climate and your yard’s specific sun, shade, and soil conditions.
- Seasonal annuals for spring color

Pruning & Trimming
Spring is the right time to shape shrubs, cut back ornamental grasses, and remove winter-damaged branches before the growing season takes over.
- Shrub shaping and size reduction

- Overseeding for thin turf zones
- Grade correction for uneven areas
- Fertilization and starter applications available
Decorative Rock & Ground Cover
Decorative stone, river rock, or pine straw as a low-maintenance alternative to mulch — great for slopes, high-traffic areas, and modern landscapes.

- Weed barrier fabric installation underneath
- Border edging to contain loose material
- Low-maintenance solution for problem areas
Why Spring Cleanup Matters
Charlotte yards need a reset every spring
Charlotte’s winters bring freeze-thaw cycles, wind damage, and months of leaf buildup that leave most yards in poor shape by March. Clay-heavy Mecklenburg soil compacts over winter, beds get overrun with weeds that germinated in fall, and last year’s mulch has broken down to nothing.
A proper spring cleanup isn’t just cosmetic — it sets the foundation for how your yard performs all season. Beds that start clean, mulched, and properly edged stay that way longer. Plants that get early pruning and soil prep grow stronger. Lawns that get repaired in spring fill in before the summer heat stress begins.
-
Healthier plants all season
Fresh mulch regulates soil temperature and retains moisture during Charlotte’s dry summer spells — reducing water stress and plant loss.
-
Immediate curb appeal
Clean edges, fresh mulch, and new seasonal color make an immediate visual difference that carries through the growing season.
-
Fewer weeds all summer
Clearing weeds before they seed in spring — combined with fresh mulch cover — dramatically reduces weed pressure through summer and fall.

When to Book
Best time for spring cleanup in Charlotte
Timing matters in the Carolinas. Here’s when to schedule each type of cleanup work for the best results.
Early Spring
Feb – March
Ideal for bed cleanup, pruning, pre-emergent application, and sod repair before warm-season grasses wake up. Book early — slots fill fast.
Mid-Spring
April – May
Perfect for mulching, planting annuals and perennials, edging, and full yard refresh. Most popular time — book in advance.
Summer
June – Aug
Touch-up weeding and mulch refresh available. Heat stress makes new planting harder — best for maintenance rather than major work.
