This cluster prices leaf removal alone -- a single leaf-removal visit as the whole ticket, priced by lot size on the by-yard-size guide and by ticket on the leaf-vs-yard-cleanup guide. Named apart, never a row here: full yard cleanup, a broader debris-and-bed scope and never a leaf-only visit; gutter cleaning, a roofline ticket and never a yard visit; and landscaping services, a design-and-build lane and never a cleanup price.

| Frame A line, as printed | 2026 band |
|---|---|
| One-sixth acre / one-fifth acre | $150-$200 / $175-$225 |
| One-quarter acre / one-half acre | $175-$250 / $200-$500 |

| Per square foot, smaller yards | $0.02-$0.10 |
| One-time fall cleanup | $200-$850 |
Frame A counts the visit by acreage and by removal row, with a one-time fall cleanup averaging around $525 and disposal at $5-$10 per bag beside the visit rows.
Frame B lines, as reported: the HomeGuide frame
| Frame B line, as printed | 2026 band |
|---|---|
| General residential range | $150-$700 |
| 5,000 square foot lawn | $150-$350 |
| One-quarter acre / one-half acre | $200-$400 / $300-$500 |
| One acre | $450-$1,000 |
| Frame A quarter-acre row, apart | $175-$250 |
Frame B counts the same visit inside a residential range by lawn size, and full yard cleanup tickets stand only as the other ticket on the leaf-vs-yard-cleanup guide. The two frames count the same quarter-acre job differently -- Frame A reads a quarter acre at $175-$250 on its acreage table, while Frame B reads the same quarter acre at $200-$400 inside its $150-$700 residential range. That difference is named as a frame difference on every page here, never averaged.
The neighbours, differentiated
The lawn-care hub prices a recurring service ticket in its own lane, apart from its landscaping services rows named apart here. Its service rows stand inside that hub's own counting. Neither prices a single leaf-removal visit by lot size.
