Volume and access. Nearly every clearance quote comes down to those two, and on a larger plot volume is the bigger half.
Garden clearance is quoted on the volume of waste, the type of waste, access and time on site. On a larger garden the volume is usually the dominant factor, and it is almost always more than it looks.
We do not publish a fixed price list for garden clearance, because the volume of material and the access at each property vary enormously. What we can do is explain what moves the number.
| Factor | Effect |
|---|---|
| Size of garden | Baseline for volume |
| How long it has been left | Large — years of growth is a different job |
| Structures to remove | Sheds, greenhouses, decking add labour |
| Anything being kept | Slower, more careful work |
| Hard landscaping to lift | Weight and disposal cost |
| Ground conditions | Wet, heavy ground slows everything |
| Disposal route | Green, general and rubble all go differently |

Anyone removing waste from your property commercially should be a registered waste carrier. It is worth asking — as the householder you have a duty of care to check your waste goes to someone authorised to take it, and fly-tipped waste traced back to you becomes your problem.

It is quoted on the volume of waste, the type of waste, access and time on site. On a larger garden volume is usually the dominant factor.
Because growth compresses as it grows and expands enormously once cut. A bramble thicket a metre deep produces several times its apparent volume.
Because the carry is the work — and on a long plot the distance from the far end to the vehicle is a real factor.
Yes. The part you use first with the far end following spreads the cost across seasons and lets the first phase settle.
Yes, and on a larger garden there is usually room. Chip for borders and logs for a burner are a genuine saving.
Yes. One set-up, one access arrangement and one waste removal instead of three.
Yes. As the householder you have a duty of care to check that whoever removes your waste is authorised to take it.
No. Quotations are free.
