What garden waste we collect
Bagged or loose — we take most garden waste:
- Grass cuttings, leaves and weeds
- Branches, hedge trimmings and small shrubs
- General green waste from garden clear-outs
- Soil and turf (where accepted)
- Old fencing panels and garden furniture
- Small amounts of mixed garden items (subject to type)
Skip, compost or a collection service?
There are a few ways to get rid of garden waste. Composting is great for small amounts, but in London it’s rarely practical for a whole season’s worth of branches and cuttings — and it won’t deal with non-compostable items like old fencing or tools.
Hiring a skip isn’t always the easiest or cheapest option either: you need space for it, and if your property is hard to reach, getting a skip delivered can be difficult.
A garden waste collection is usually the quickest choice. We load everything for you, take it away in one visit and recycle or compost green waste wherever possible.
Getting the garden ready for collection
You don’t need to bag anything, but a few simple steps make loading quicker:
- Keep soil and rubble apart from green waste. Waste sites handle them separately, and soil is far heavier, so it affects the quote.
- Tell us about gates and side passages. If the waste has to come through the house or down a narrow path, mention it when you send photos.
- Watch out for Japanese knotweed. It is a controlled waste and needs specialist disposal. If you think you have it, tell us before we come.

A council garden bin or a one-off collection?
A council garden bin may suit you if
- you have a small garden and regular cuttings
- everything is green waste and fits in the bin
- you are happy to wait for the collection round
A one-off collection usually suits you if
- you have cut back a hedge or tree and have more than a bin will hold
- there are large branches, old fencing or garden furniture
- you want it gone in one visit, with the loading done for you
Not every council offers a garden bin, and many charge for one, so check your council’s website. Or send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly which makes sense.

Does the garden waste need to be bagged?
No. We collect garden waste bagged or loose.
Do you take soil and turf?
Yes, where accepted. Soil and turf are heavy, so send photos and we’ll confirm the price.

Do you recycle garden waste?
Yes. Green waste is recycled or composted wherever possible and taken to licensed sites.
Do you take old fencing, decking and sheds?
Old fence panels, decking boards and a dismantled shed are fine. If a shed still needs taking down, tell us when you send photos and we’ll tell you what we can do.
My garden is overgrown. Can you still clear it?
Usually yes. Send photos of the whole garden and tell us whether it has already been cut back, and we’ll confirm what we can do and the price.
Can you collect from a back garden with no side access?
Yes. Tell us the route from the garden to the van, including any steps or a walk through the house, because carry distance affects loading time.
Are you a licensed waste carrier?
