Blade Runners Proactive Leaf Removal Information!

Leaf season is coming!!   Here are some quick tips to help you understand your Blade Runners Leaf Service.

Fall Mowing Service:

Mowing Service vs Fall Cleanup:  It is important that you differentiate a fall mowing service (A1 service listed in your contract) from a fall clean-up service (B3 service listed on your contract). Your fall cleanup is dependent on the number of leaf removal services in your agreement. We often hear concerns about leaf removal quality when we are performing a mowing service.  For example, during the non-leaf season, Blade Runners blows the outer curb of debris at each mowing visit. We suspend blowing these areas after the leaves accumulate in the outer curb because it moves the leaves around and isn’t picked up with this service.  These areas will be cleaned with your leaf service.

As part of the fall mowing services, we use Mulching Blades: During the early fall mowing visits we use specialized mulching blades to grind and reduce leaves in the turf. We do not pile and remove leaves on these visits.  This is a cost saver for you and is good for your soil.

Fall Leaf Removal Visits.

To help keep your property safe and reduce the possibility of damage, we do not blow or remove leaves obstructed by parked cars as it aggravates residents and creates damage claims.  The thought process is that over several visits these areas will be cleaned. If there are residual concerns at the end of December, we can schedule a specific day in January to have cars moved and these areas cleaned.

Please review our leaf video for details of the removal service

Leaf Removal Schedule:

The leaf removal schedule (B3 service in your contract) is dependent on the number of clean-ups in your agreement. Please see the schedule below

The clean-ups timeline depends on the number of visits you have in your contract and would follow this schedule:

1x Leaf Management = 12/1-12/31

2x Leaf Management = 11/10-11/30, 12/1-12/31

3x Leaf Management = 10/15-10/31, 11/10-11/30, 12/1-12/31

4x Leaf Management = 10/15-10/31, 11/10-11/30, 12/1-12/31, 1/1-1/25

5x Leaf Management = 10/1-10/15, 10/15-10/31, 11/10-11/30, 12/1-12/31, 1/1-1/25

6x Leaf Management =1 0/1-10/15, 10/15-10/31, 11/1-11/10, 11/10-11/30, 12/1/12/31, 1/1-1/25

Hi Shannon,

From what I hear, the Board is pleased with the work of Blade Runners. Yay! I also appreciate the Task Notice sent out each time. I’m keeping fingers crossed that come Fall we might have some money to implement a bit more of the landscape plan.

Best,Sandra

Hey there,

Just wanted to give a shout out to the guys that trimmed our bushes today.  They look great!

Thanks!
Kristine

Thanks for this Tim.  Also wanted to pass on that I just finished watching two guys from Blade Runners get the fallen limbs out.  If you get a chance, would you please pass on to the company, how impressed I was at the thorough job they did.  The limbs are gone and the grounds have been swept of debris and even they even got rid of the sawdust from cutting the branches up.  Good job.

Karen,

Good evening. They did a good job with moving the plants to the front of the house. Thank you. You did a great job with the whole project.

Shannon,

First – thanks. Appreciate your team.

Have been seeing them out and about and it is noticeably improved the grounds during this high growth period…

Do you have areas of your community that are overgrown, full of brush, collecting trash?

Blade Runners Can help!

 

  These areas are unsightly, reduce the value & visual appeal of your community and could pose a safety issue!

When areas are left unkempt some residents will start to dump debris adding to the issue.

Reclaim this area of your property by clearing and adding wood-chips can turn a negative into a positive!

 

Read more about the benefits of natural woods chips by visiting –  www.blade-runners.com/woodchips/ 

Place Wood chips along fences & other areas on the property to reduce under-story growth and  help with drainage & erosion.

 

See these Before & After Pictures of Blade Runners Clients.

Your Account Manager can help, lets work together to turn these overgrown areas into a positive for your community!

Hi Team.
Just a quick note to let you know what a lovely job the Blade Runners Crew did on the NCL Spring Cleanup work.  There are several areas they went above and beyond what I expected, and we really appreciate that.

I don’t think we got the invoice for April yet, so please have your office manager email me the invoice when ready!

Thanks again, excellent work!

Mike

Lanelle –  

I am actually writing to you with a positive comment.  I am between meetings tonight and the first meeting featured a blade runners fan club meeting.  The community has had it struggles financially but decided to contract with Blade Runners and quite honestly, I have never heard a board or community produce this type of accolades for a snow removal company or landscape firm.  You were out at the community today and they were all happy to see you – and all agreed that you have done a great job on the snow – and I had to chime in as well letting them know that I get excellent communication from the company about landscape or snowscape matters. 

Thanks again for doing a great job for my community and helping me to look good.  I wanted to share with you the positive comments because we often live in the land of complaints! 

Pat yourself on the back and thank everyone on your team.

Best regards,

Kris
