Why we're here
Why we serve New Haven
City yards can be small, shared or tucked behind a gate, and every one of them deserves the same care. Two traprock ridges frame the city. East Rock formed about 200 million years ago, when molten rock surged through cracks in the sandstone bedrock and cooled into dolerite, a stone that resists erosion far better than the sandstone around it. Its summit now rises more than 350 feet above the floor of the Mill River Valley, with views of New Haven and the harbor, and East Rock Park has over 10 miles of hiking trails, including the Giant Steps Trail's 285-foot climb to the summit. Closer to downtown, Wooster Square is famous for its cherry trees and its park.

A little about New Haven
West Rock Ridge State Park starts at the South Summit in New Haven, about 400 feet up, and runs as a six-mile ridge to High Rock in Bethany at 715 feet. The seven-mile, blue-blazed Regicides Trail follows the ridge, and Regicide Drive leads to the South Overlook and Judges Cave. The state notes that West Rock Ridge has one of the highest concentrations of rare and endangered species of any park in Connecticut. Edgewood Park began in 1889, when the city set aside sixty acres for its new Park Commission. Frederick Law Olmsted Jr. designed the layout in 1910, with a rose garden, a lily pond and a bridle path over three miles long. A century later the park covers more than 120 acres with about 3.3 miles of trails.

New Haven FAQ
Common questions about New Haven service.
If your question isn't here, give us a call. We answer the phone.
Do your technicians take the dog waste with them?
No. We securely double- or triple-bag the waste in our scented bags and place it in your trash bin or a designated spot on your property.
Do you clean the entire yard?
Standard pricing covers the entire yard up to 1/8 acre, about 5,500 square feet. Bigger yards are welcome: each additional 1/8 acre is $6 per visit.
Is Spruce Scoop insured?
Yes. Spruce Scoop is fully insured and registered in Connecticut, for your peace of mind and protection in the unlikely event of any incident during our service.
Do you provide service in the winter?
Absolutely. We scoop year-round. In snow we remove all visible, accessible waste, and anything buried under snow or ice is picked up once conditions allow. If weather postpones a visit, we do a full cleanup of everything that built up on the next one.
Can technicians work with dogs in the yard?
We love our furry clients! Friendly dogs can stay outside. For everyone's safety, we ask that aggressive or overly excited dogs be kept indoors while we work.
Do I need to be home when you arrive?
No. Just make sure your gate is unlocked and we can get into the yard safely, and tell us about any entry instructions. We'll handle the rest.
How will I know you've been there?
We text you 10 to 30 minutes before we arrive and again when we're done, and we upload a photo of your closed gate before we leave.
How much does dog waste removal cost?
Pricing depends on the number of dogs, your yard size and how often we visit. Weekly service for a small yard with one or two dogs typically runs $23 to $28 per visit. Get your exact price in about a minute with our instant quote.
Awaiting confirmation: Spruce Scoop is confirming the $23 to $28 range above. Your instant quote shows your exact price.
How often can you come out?
We offer weekly, twice-weekly, biweekly and monthly visits, so you can pick the schedule that fits your dogs and your yard.
Is there a contract?
No. Service is month to month with no long-term contract. To cancel, just let us know at least 7 days before your next billing date.
