Toronto yard-waste rules, in short: the City collects yard waste in paper yard-waste bags or open rigid containers — not plastic bags or cardboard boxes — and does not collect grass clippings, sod or soil. Check your collection calendar at toronto.ca for your pickup dates.
Price range

Depends on the size of the property and the number of trees dropping leaves.
Questions
When should a fall cleanup be done?
Ideally after most leaves have fallen but before the first lasting snow — in Toronto, usually late October to mid-November. Large properties with many trees may need two visits.
Should I leave some leaves on my garden beds?
A light layer of shredded leaves in beds can protect roots and help pollinators. Thick, wet layers on the lawn, though, smother grass and cause dead patches. Tell us your preference and we'll handle it that way.
Can I combine the fall cleanup with snow removal?
Yes — many clients book their fall cleanup and reserve their snow removal spot at the same time.
