Do You Take Away All the Waste?

Do You Take Away the Waste After Garden Work?

Yes.

Where waste removal forms part of the agreed quotation, we can remove suitable waste generated by the work we carry out.

Depending on the job, this can include:

• Tree branches

• Pruning waste

• Hedge cuttings

• Brambles

• Shrub cuttings

• Weeds

• Grass cuttings

• Leaves

• Small woody material

• Other suitable green garden waste

The exact waste being removed will depend on the work agreed with the customer.

Do You Remove Waste After Tree Surgery?

Yes, tree work can produce a substantial amount of woody material.

Pruning, crown reductions, deadwooding and tree removal can generate branches and other tree material that needs to be dealt with after the work has been completed.

Where removal is included in the job, suitable resulting tree waste can be cleared from the property rather than simply being left behind.

If a customer wants to retain suitable timber or logs, this can be discussed when the work is arranged.

Do You Take Away Hedge Cuttings?

Yes.

Hedge cutting can generate much more waste than people expect, particularly when a large hedge is being reduced or reshaped.

Conifers, laurel and large mixed boundary hedges can produce a significant volume of cut material.

Where removal is included, hedge cuttings can be cleared away as part of the job.

This leaves the area considerably tidier and avoids the customer having to try to fit a large quantity of hedge material into garden waste bins.

Do You Remove Waste From Garden Clearance?

Yes.

Waste removal is particularly important with overgrown garden clearance.

A neglected garden can contain large quantities of:

• Brambles

• Long grass

• Weeds

• Unwanted shrubs

• Hedge growth

• Fallen branches

• Leaves

• Other vegetation

Once cut down, this material can occupy a surprisingly large volume.

Where suitable waste removal is part of the agreed clearance, we can load and remove it as the job progresses.

What Happens to Brambles After They Are Cleared?

Brambles can create a large amount of tangled green waste.

During an overgrown garden clearance, cut brambles can be gathered and removed with the other suitable vegetation generated by the work.

This is especially useful where brambles have taken over a large section of the garden, as leaving the cut material behind would still leave the customer with a considerable clearance problem.

Will You Leave the Garden Tidy?

Our aim is to leave the work area tidy once the agreed work and waste removal have been completed.

The exact finish depends on the type of job.

A hedge-cutting job, for example, is different from clearing a garden that has been neglected for several years.

The scope of the work should therefore be agreed beforehand so the customer knows what is included.

Does Waste Removal Cost More?

The amount of waste is one of the factors considered when pricing tree, hedge and garden work.

A job where all resulting material has to be loaded, transported and appropriately disposed of involves more work than one where material is being left on site.

Access also matters.

Waste that can be moved directly to a vehicle is generally easier to deal with than material that has to be carried a considerable distance through restricted access.

This is why we assess the complete job before providing a quotation.

Can I Keep Logs or Wood From My Tree?

Where appropriate, customers can discuss keeping suitable timber from their own tree.

Some customers may want logs retained for their own use rather than having all woody material removed.

If this is required, it is best to mention it when the work is being quoted so the job can be planned accordingly.

Do You Empty Garden Waste Bins Too?

Yes. Dragonfly Tree & Garden Services also provides a garden waste bin emptying service for suitable green garden waste.

This can be useful where a garden waste bin has become:

• Too heavy for normal collection

• Packed with wet grass

• Full of hedge cuttings

• Compacted

• Overloaded

• Difficult to empty

Our garden waste bin emptying service is specifically for suitable green garden waste, rather than general household or mixed rubbish.

What Waste Can't Simply Be Treated as Green Waste?

Not everything found in a garden is green waste.

Items such as general household rubbish, building materials, chemicals and other non-garden materials should not automatically be treated in the same way as branches, grass, leaves or hedge cuttings.

If a garden contains mixed waste, it is important to establish what is present rather than assuming everything can be removed as green garden waste.

Are You a Registered Waste Carrier?

Yes.

Dragonfly Tree & Garden Services operates as an Upper Tier registered waste carrier, allowing us to transport waste arising from the services we provide in accordance with applicable waste requirements.

Customers should always consider how waste will be handled when choosing somebody to carry out garden, hedge or tree work.

Do You Take Away All the Waste?

For the agreed work, yes — where waste removal is included in your quotation, we can remove the suitable tree and garden waste generated by the job.

That might mean branches following tree pruning, large quantities of hedge cuttings after a reduction, or brambles and vegetation following an overgrown garden clearance.

The important point is that the scope of the work and waste removal is agreed beforehand.
