Queenslanders are no strangers to wild weather, and with Tropical Cyclone Alfred leaving a trail of debris, fallen branches, and waterlogged gardens, now is the time to restore and revitalise your outdoor space. A well-maintained garden not only improves your property’s curb appeal but also prevents further damage and prepares it for future storms.

Why Post-Cyclone Garden Clean-Ups Are Essential

  1. Remove Storm Debris for Safety – Fallen branches, leaves, and uprooted plants can create hazards in your yard. Clearing them quickly prevents accidents and keeps your property safe.

  2. Prevent Water Damage & Mold Growth – Saturated soil and piled-up debris can trap moisture, leading to mold, rot, and pest infestations.

  3. Restore Plant Health – Strong winds and heavy rain can damage plants. Pruning broken branches and adding fresh mulch help plants recover faster.

  4. Protect Your Lawn & Garden Beds – Excess water can cause soil erosion, damaging roots and nutrient levels. Proper drainage and soil aeration are essential after extreme weather events.

  5. Prepare for Future Weather Events – Strengthening trees, trimming weak branches, and reinforcing your landscape will minimise future storm damage.
