Storm cleanup & debris removal.
Fallen branch pickup, yard debris hauling, fence-line clearing, and full post-storm lawn cleanup across Pickaway, Franklin, Fairfield, Ross, and Fayette counties. Owner lives in Circleville and is usually on site within 24-48 hours of a call.
Ground-level cleanup, hauled off the same day.
We're a mowing-and-landscaping crew already running trucks and trailers on Central Ohio routes weekly. That makes us the right call for the ground-level cleanup that follows a storm — and the wrong call for chainsaw work on standing trees. The list below is what we actually do.
- Fallen branch and limb pickup at ground level (under 6 inches in diameter).
- Yard debris hauling — sticks, twigs, leaves, and storm-blown trash off the turf.
- Storm-damaged lawn cleanup — debris embedded in grass that fouls mowers and smothers turf.
- Fence-line clearing after windstorms — pulling branches and brush off field fence, chain link, or board fence.
- Raking and bagging or trailer-hauling — debris leaves the property the same day.
- Property walk and written assessment after weather events.
- Soft sweep and blow-off of driveways, walkways, and patios.
Be honest about the limit. Refer the rest out.
Storm work kills more landscape contractors than any other job on a property. The list below is the work we send to ISA-certified arborists and licensed tree services — not because we can't lift a saw, but because the risk and the insurance reality don't match the price you'd pay us.
Anything that requires a chainsaw cut on a tree still in the ground goes to an ISA-certified arborist. Standing-tree work is the most dangerous job on a property and we won't take it on.
Bucket-truck or climbing-saddle work belongs to a licensed tree service with the gear and training for it.
Branches tangled in the power drop or service entry are a utility-and-arborist call. We won't touch them — call AEP Ohio first to de-energize.
We clear the ground, not the roof. A roofer or gutter contractor handles material that landed up top.
Need an arborist referral? Ask on the call. We work alongside several Central Ohio tree services and will point you to one we trust for the standing-tree side of the job.

Call or text
Reach the owner directly at 614-425-9789. Describe what came down and where it sits. If photos are easy to send, send them — speeds the quote.
- 02
Property walk
Usually within 24-48 hours of the call across the five-county service area. We walk the property, flag anything outside our scope, and identify what needs a different specialist.
- 03
Written quote
Hourly rate plus dump fees, written and itemized. No verbal handshakes that turn into surprise invoices.
- 04
Cleanup
Truck and trailer on-site. Debris loaded and hauled off, lawn raked clean, hardscape blown clear. Property leaves looking like the storm didn't happen.

Mow next visit
Most cleanups need a fresh mow once the turf is clear. We're already on Central Ohio mowing routes weekly — your next mow can roll into the same week if you want it on the books.
Hourly plus dump fees. Written before the work starts.
Storm cleanup is priced by the hour with itemized dump fees for whatever we haul off-property. We don't quote a flat number sight-unseen — volume, access, and the ratio of hand-rake to load-and-haul varies too much.
After the walk we leave you with a written quote. Approve it and we schedule the work. Lawn Harmony Landscaping LLC carries general liability insurance — proof of coverage available on request before the first visit.
Already on a weekly mow contract with us? Storm cleanup gets added to the schedule as a separate visit. Mowing rates don't change, and we'll roll the next mow into the same week so the lawn doesn't sit unmowed while the debris is being cleared.
Common questions after a storm.
How fast can you be on site after a storm?
Owner lives in Circleville and works the five-county footprint daily. After a major storm event we're usually walking properties within 24-48 hours. During an active route week with several cleanup calls stacked up, it can stretch to 3-4 days for non-urgent debris.
Do you do chainsaw work on storm-damaged trees?
No. We pick up branches that already came down at ground level (under 6 inches in diameter). Anything still attached to the tree, anything that requires climbing, and anything near power lines goes to an ISA-certified arborist. Being honest about the limit keeps us insured and keeps you safe.
How is storm cleanup priced?
Hourly rate plus dump fees, written after a walk of the property. Volume of debris, access for truck and trailer, and how much needs hand-raking versus rake-and-haul are the big drivers. Smallest cleanups run a single-visit minimum; large lots can run several hours over a day or two.
Are you insured?
Yes — Lawn Harmony Landscaping LLC carries general liability insurance. Storm work in particular needs it; we provide proof of coverage on request before the first visit.
Will you mow the lawn after the cleanup too?
Yes, and it's usually the right call. Storm debris embedded in the turf chews up mower blades and smothers spots that go yellow if they sit. We run weekly mowing routes across Pickaway, Franklin, Fairfield, Ross, and Fayette counties, so adding the next mow to the same week is straightforward. 40-dollar mow minimum.
