Includes the mulch, delivery and spreading. Rounded up to the half yard. We check the beds when we arrive; if they are very different from what you typed, we tell you before we start. Steep slopes or long wheelbarrow runs can be up to $120 a yard.
Type a length and a width to book.
Your notes in the form are too long to fit with the mulch price. Please shorten them a little.
What we clean up
The jobs that pile up.
- Leaves. Off the lawn and out of the beds.
- Beds and borders. Cleaned out and tidied up.
- Hard surfaces. We blow the drive, the walks and the curb.
- Haul-off. We haul the debris away. Nothing left in a pile.
- Overgrown lawns and brush. Tall grass brought back down, sticks and brush picked up.
The city green cart takes your household leaves every week. A cleanup is for when the drop is bigger than the cart, and for the beds. More on that on our leaf removal page.
In Hollywood Park the town will not take a contractor's brush at the curb, so we haul ours off. We never leave a contractor brush pile at your curb.
We clean up yards across our lawn area, including Stone Oak, Alamo Heights, Terrell Hills, Shavano Park, Castle Hills and Hollywood Park.
Reviews
What our customers say.
“Professional, great communication, and super nice guys. My house is ready for the holidays!! Thank you so much! Will definitely be back next year!”
“The Backyard Boys are the best! They were very professional and easy to work with in every step of the process. He made sure the quote was exactly what I wanted. The price was the best from several companies I had quoted. Diego let me know exactly when he would arrive. They worked hard all day and were very careful to make the lights look perfect! I had a problem after he left and he came back immediately to make sure everything worked perfectly. I highly recommend The Backyard Boys!!”
“There are not enough good things to say about the Backyard Boys. They went above and beyond installing Christmas roofline and trunk + limb lights. Diego et al were super friendly and couldn’t have been better with communications and checking to ensure the lights were perfect. You are making a mistake if you choose anyone else over the Backyard Boys.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Backyard Boys! I especially want to recognize Diego for his professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail. He was courteous, respectful, and took great care of my lawn. It’s refreshing to encounter someone who takes genuine pride in their work and treats your property with care. Everything looked beautiful when he finished, and I truly appreciate the time and effort he put into making my yard look its best. Diego is definitely an asset to the Backyard Boys team! I highly recommend their lawn care services and look forward to working with them again. Thank you, Diego!”
“We had a great experience! They were reliable, hardworking, and did a great job cleaning up our yard. Everything looks so much better, and we really appreciate their work. Would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for affordable, reliable lawn care!”

Yard questions, answered
- Should you rake your leaves or mow them in San Antonio?
Mow a light layer of leaves into the lawn. Rake only when you can't see about half the grass, and put the extra in your beds or the green cart.
- When do live oaks drop their leaves in San Antonio?
Live oaks stay green through winter and drop their old leaves in late winter and spring, as the new ones push out. It is normal.
- How do you get your yard ready for a freeze in San Antonio?
Shut off and drain the sprinklers, water the yard before the cold, mulch the beds and cover tender plants with cloth. Leave the grass at its normal height.
