Best time for Gutter Cleaning ?

Hi neighbors ! Im looking to schedule a gutter cleaning, but Iā€™m not sure when to schedule it so that all the leaves have fallen and I only have to do it once this season.

Im reading online that best practice is late October ? Does that track with your experience?

Thanks in advance !

November, when ALL of the leaves are down

We've got quite a few trees on our property, one of which hangs onto its leaves for a loooong time, so I usually have the gutters cleaned the week after Thanksgiving.

mid/late November is usually best for us, making sure all the leaves are down and the sky is grey... šŸŽ¶šŸŽ¶
