October comes down hard on Salisbury Heights: one windy night and the maples let go all at once, and by morning every yard in town is buried in red and gold. Poulin Property Maintenance LLC spends those weeks working the dirt roads, pulling leaves off grass that still has growing left in it. There is an order to the work — cut it low, haul the piles out, get the beds and the culvert edges open before the ground stiffens. By the time the last load leaves a property, the yard looks wide and swept and ready for whatever November decides to do. It is plain work, and it is deeply satisfying to stand at the end of a driveway and see it done.
