Garden clearance in Kentish Town (NW5)

Our garden clearance service in Kentish Town takes care of the old furniture, broken pots, piled-up cuttings and rubbish stopping you using your outdoor space. If a move, renovation or months of putting it off have left you with more than the garden bin can handle, our two-person crew will lift, load and remove it, with collections across NW5.

Get your patio, pathways and garden back

You don’t need to gather everything by the gate. We collect from where the waste sits, including behind the shed, along the side passage and at the far end of the garden.

A garden junk removal job often involves several different materials. We can collect:

• Old garden furniture, benches, parasols and broken outdoor storage.
• Plant pots, trays, empty planters and damaged garden ornaments.
• Bagged leaves, grass cuttings, hedge trimmings and loose branches.
• Detached fence panels, broken fencing and timber.
• Discarded toys, paddling pools and rusty garden equipment.
• Loose bricks, tiles, rubble and other debris left after building work.
• Unwanted items stored in sheds, garages and outbuildings.

Tell us about anything still fixed in place. Taking away a detached fence panel is a different job from dismantling a fence or digging out its concrete posts.

Overgrown garden clearance: show us what’s underneath

For overgrown garden clearance, send an overview and close-ups of anything hidden among the growth. Wire, broken glass, buried rubble and rotten timber can make a seemingly small pile take longer to clear.

We can remove accumulated rubbish and cut vegetation. If you need standing growth cut back, roots removed or beds dug over, describe that when enquiring so we can confirm what’s possible and quote for the work.

To clear pathways, patios and beds properly, we’ll agree which loose items and debris are going. Point out plants, pots and stored materials you want kept.

Garden clearance prices by load

Garden clearance prices are based mainly on how much van space the waste takes, plus any items needing special disposal. We agree the price before starting, so you can decide with the full cost in front of you.

A stack of plastic chairs and a pile of paving slabs might occupy similar space, but they need different handling. Soil, rubble, wet compost and concrete are heavy, and the van’s safe weight limit matters as well as its capacity.

Your quote will take account of:

• Volume: the amount of space the load needs.
• Materials: green waste, furniture, timber, soil and rubble have different disposal requirements.
• Loading work: loose debris, bagging and awkward items take longer than an accessible pile.
• Access: steps, narrow gates, long carries and routes through the house affect loading.
• Special disposal: certain items require separate arrangements or additional charges.

Our waste removal pricing guide explains how load-based quotes work. For an accurate garden quote, photograph the whole area, then any dense piles or heavy materials separately. Mention filled planters and bags of soil, as their weight is easy to miss in photos.

What happens on garden clearance day

We handle the lifting and loading. A little information before the visit helps us arrive ready for the job.

1. Send photos and access details. Include the waste, the route out and any steps or tight corners. Tell us where the van can stop.
2. Agree the collection and price. We’ll confirm what’s included and flag anything needing a closer look or separate disposal.
3. Show us what stays. On arrival, we’ll check the job with you before loading. Set aside tools, ornaments and pots you want to keep.
4. Leave the clearing to us. Our two-person crew bags loose mixed garden waste where needed and carries everything to the van.
5. Check the finished space. We sweep the cleared hard surfaces before leaving and provide your receipt and waste transfer note.

You don’t need to buy bags or move heavy objects beforehand. Keep children and pets away from the working route, and let us know about broken glass, sharp metal or unstable piles.

If you’ve already bagged waste, avoid filling large sacks with soil or rubble. Smaller, manageable amounts are safer, and split bags can scatter debris through the property.

Tight gates, shared access and routes through the house

Tell us about the narrowest point between the garden and the van. A table that fits on the patio may not fit through the side gate, particularly with a sharp turn immediately outside it.

We work in homes and business premises across Kentish Town, including gardens reached through the building. Mention stairs, shared corridors, timed access and any need to protect an indoor route before we attend.

Parking also affects the job. Let us know about permits, loading restrictions or a shared driveway, and arrange permission for communal access where needed.

For a business courtyard or yard clearance service, identify anything belonging to neighbours, tenants or contractors. We’ll agree the clearance area so stored stock, returnable containers and equipment stay where they belong.

Combine garden rubbish and green waste in one visit

You can book a garden tidy and disposal collection that includes both unwanted objects and green waste. There’s no need to arrange separate visits for a broken bench, bags of leaves and hedge cuttings.

If you’re doing the pruning yourself, keeping branches and cuttings apart from rubble, plastic and treated timber helps us sort the load. Our garden waste removal service is useful when the job is mainly vegetation you’ve already cut.

For post renovation garden clearance, show us leftover materials as well as packaging. Plasterboard, cement products, paint containers and rubble need identifying before collection.

If the shed itself also needs attention, ask about combining the job with shed clearance. Tell us separately if you want the structure dismantled.

Items that need checking before collection

Don’t put chemicals, fuel, pesticides, unidentified liquids or suspected asbestos into ordinary rubbish bags. Send photos of labels or materials without opening containers or disturbing anything suspicious.

Suspected asbestos needs assessment by an appropriate specialist. Hazardous chemicals may need a specialist contractor or a council disposal route; we’ll confirm what we can accept before booking.

Large quantities of soil, concrete foundations, tree stumps and substantial dismantling work need a bespoke assessment. Japanese knotweed and other suspected invasive plants must also be flagged before anything is cut, bagged or moved.

Responsible garden waste disposal, with paperwork

We’re a registered waste carrier with the Environment Agency and fully insured. Every collection comes with a receipt and waste transfer note, so you have a record of the handover.

We sort what we collect for reuse and recycling where we can, then take the rest to licensed sites. Keeping clean vegetation separate from mixed rubbish helps with that sorting.

Before-and-after garden clearance photos are available on request. They’re particularly useful for landlords, managing agents and customers arranging a clearance from elsewhere.

Garden clearance questions

Can you collect today or tomorrow?

Usually, yes. Same-day and next-day collections are often possible in Kentish Town, depending on availability and the size of the job. Send photos and your preferred timing so we can check.

Do I need to carry everything to the front?

No. Our two-person crew collects from anywhere in the property, including gardens, sheds, garages, upstairs rooms and lofts. Tell us about access so we can allow for the carrying involved.

Can you remove broken fencing and timber?

Yes. We can collect detached panels, posts and timber offcuts. Mention concrete attached to posts, protruding nails or any dismantling you need before collection.

Can you clear the garden while I’m away?

Yes. We can arrange key collection or access through an agent or neighbour. Agree what stays beforehand, and we can send photos once the work is finished.

Do you remove soil and filled plant pots?

Yes, subject to confirming the quantity and weight. Photograph filled pots and tell us about bags of soil, turf or compost so we can plan a safe load and accurate price.

Is this a gardening or landscaping service?

No. The core service is clearing and removing waste and unwanted items. Ask us to confirm any cutting back, digging or dismantling you need; don’t assume it’s included in a collection quote.
