How Much Does Garden Clearance Cost?

Garden clearance costs can vary significantly because no two gardens are the same. A small garden with a few overgrown shrubs requires a very different amount of work compared with a large garden that has been neglected for several years.

For this reason, professional garden clearance is normally quoted after viewing photographs or visiting the property.

What Affects the Cost?

Several factors influence the overall cost of a garden clearance, including:

  • The size of the garden.

  • The amount of overgrown vegetation.

  • Brambles, ivy and dense undergrowth.

  • Small trees and shrubs that need removing.

  • Access to the property.

  • The amount of green waste produced.

  • Whether waste removal is required.

  • The time needed to complete the work.

Every quotation is tailored to the individual job.

Why Garden Size Isn't Everything

Two gardens of the same size can require completely different amounts of work.

A well-maintained garden may only need a few hours to tidy, while a neglected garden with heavy vegetation can take several days to clear.

That's why photographs or a site visit help us provide an accurate quotation.

Green Waste Removal

Garden clearance often produces a large volume of green waste.

Branches, shrubs, weeds, hedge cuttings and other vegetation are collected and removed, leaving the garden clean and tidy once the work has been completed.

The amount of waste generated is one of the factors considered when preparing a quotation.

How to Get an Accurate Quote

The quickest way to receive a quotation is to send us several clear photographs of the garden, together with your postcode and a brief description of the work you'd like carried out.

For larger or more complex projects, we may recommend a site visit before providing a quotation.
