Quick answer
How do I get rid of a lot of garden waste?
For a few bags, use your council’s garden waste bin or take it to a Kent tip in a car. For anything bigger, such as hedge cuttings from a full day’s work, turf from a new lawn, soil or an old shed, a garden clearance service is quicker. A council garden bin only takes cuttings, leaves and prunings, and Kent tips aren’t designed for large amounts of soil or rubble. We load it all for you and take green waste for composting.
What we clear from gardens
Green waste
Hedge and tree cuttings, branches, leaves, weeds, brambles and grass cuttings in any quantity.
Overgrown gardens
Brambles and long grass cut back, then everything bagged and removed. Ideal before a sale or a new tenancy.
Soil, turf and rubble
Heavy waste from new lawns, patios and raised beds. We bag it on site so nothing is left loose.
Sheds and summer houses
Old sheds dismantled and taken away, including the floor and the contents.
Fencing and decking
Old panels, posts, trellis and rotten decking boards removed safely.
Garden furniture and junk
Broken tables, chairs, trampolines, BBQs, pots and the odd bike frame.
Why a garden bin or tip run often isn't enough
Kent councils’ garden waste bins are good value for regular cuttings, but they take a limited amount of green waste per collection, and only if you’ve paid for a subscription. Soil, turf, timber and sheds aren’t allowed in them at all.
Kent’s tips have their own limits too:
- You must book a slot for every visit.
- Soil and rubble count as DIY waste: 4 visits in 4 weeks, with two 50-litre bags or one large item each time. Each bag over the limit costs £5.
- The sites aren’t designed for large amounts of soil or rubble, and trade waste is turned away.
For a big clear-out, that can mean several weekends of car trips. We do it in one visit.

Not everything can go in a green waste load
A few things need special handling, so tell us about them when you get a quote.
Japanese knotweed
- It's classed as controlled waste and has to go to a licensed site. Use a specialist knotweed contractor, as we can't take it.
Asbestos sheds and roofs
- Old corrugated sheds and garage roofs can contain asbestos. These need a licensed asbestos remover, not a clearance team.
Soil mixed with rubble
- We can take it, but it's priced as heavy waste, so mention it in your photos.

FAQs
Frequently asked questions
How much does garden clearance cost?
It depends on how much waste there is and how heavy it is. Green waste is lighter and cheaper, while soil and turf cost more. Send a photo of the garden and we’ll give you a fixed price.
Do you cut back overgrown gardens or just take the waste away?
Both. We can cut back brambles, long grass and shrubs, then bag and remove everything. For ongoing lawn care or tree surgery, you’d need a gardener or a tree surgeon.
Can you take soil and turf?
Yes. We bag heavy waste on site and remove it in one trip. Let us know roughly how much there is so we bring the right van.
Will you dismantle and remove an old shed?
Yes, including the floor and the contents. If the roof is corrugated sheeting that might contain asbestos, let us know first, as that needs a specialist.
Do you recycle garden waste?
Yes. Green waste goes for composting, and wood and metal are recycled. Very little from a garden clearance goes to landfill.
Do I need to be home?
No, as long as we can get into the garden. We’ll send before-and-after photos.
