Volume and access. Nearly every clearance quote comes down to those two, and access is the one people forget to mention.
Garden clearance is quoted on the volume of waste, the type of waste, access and time on site. A garden that looks manageable can still fill several loads once brambles are cut and stacked.
We do not publish a fixed price list for garden clearance, because the volume of material and the access at each property vary enormously.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, decking, greenhouses 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 |

Clearance is the natural first stage of almost any garden project, and it is also the cheapest stage to combine with others.
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. Volume and access are the two largest factors.
Because the carry is the work. The same waste costs far more to remove through a house or up steps than through a side gate onto a driveway.
Generally yes. Mixed household waste has to be sorted and costs more, which is why it is worth separating it out beforehand.
Yes, and it can reduce the cost. Chip for borders and logs for a burner can both stay.
Yes, by agreement. They are bulky and often need breaking down, so mention them at quotation stage.
Yes. One set-up, one access arrangement and one waste removal instead of three, and the sequencing is handled properly.
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.
