Garden Clearance across Essex
Essex gardens range from tight new-town courtyards in Basildon and Harlow to half-acre rural plots near Saffron Walden and Maldon, and green waste from both ends up at different facilities depending on whether the council collecting it is Essex County Council, Southend-on-Sea or Thurrock.

Why Essex customers book us
Cut, bagged and removed in one visit
We don't just take away what's already cleared — cutting back and bagging overgrown growth is part of the job.
Green waste taken to the right facility
Garden waste is separated and taken where it's actually accepted, not mixed in with general household rubbish.
Rural access covered
Long driveways, gated fields and single-track approaches near the county's villages are surveyed before the job, not discovered on the day.
Licensed waste carrier
Every load moves on a waste transfer note with a licensed carrier, so there's a paper trail if you ever need it.

Garden Clearance prices in Essex
Every figure below is a fixed price for the whole job, confirmed in writing before you book — not an hourly rate and not an estimate.
| Job | From | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Garden & green waste | £95 | Cut, bagged and removed |
Garden and green waste is priced by the load once cut, bagged and ready, and taken to the correct licensed facility rather than a general household tip.
How booking works
- 1
Describe the garden and what needs clearing
Photos help — overgrowth, fallen branches, or a general season of neglect all clear differently.
- 2
Price agreed by the load
You're quoted for the van space actually filled, not a flat callout regardless of size.
- 3
Cut, bagged and removed same visit
The crew cuts back what's needed, bags the waste and loads it, leaving the garden usable.
Clearance and waste removal reviews across the UK
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again. I had furniture assembly and clearance work to be done, and again it was done very professionally to a very high standard, and with absolute politeness at all times. They did an excellent job yet again… Read in full →
Amazing service. They dismantled and removed and old running machine for me. It was very heavy. They were very careful of my mosaic floors on the hall. Very easy to use. They were very responsive to book. Arrived promptly and were fast and efficient. I recommend them.
Work fast and neat, even with the huge load of rubbish that was in the house from the previous owners.

Garden Clearance in Essex
Garden clearance in Essex spans two very different property types. New-town courtyard gardens in Basildon, Harlow and Wickford are small and quick to clear but often shared or overlooked by neighbours, so access and disposal have to be tidy rather than leaving bags on a communal path. Rural plots near Saffron Walden, Maldon and the villages around Braintree are the opposite — larger gardens that can go a season without attention and need genuine cutting-back work, not just bagging what's already down.
Where the green waste actually goes depends on which council area the job is in. Essex County Council runs the bookable household waste recycling centres used across most of the county, but Southend-on-Sea and Thurrock are unitary authorities that run their own separate recycling centre schemes rather than Essex County Council's. As a licensed waste carrier we take garden waste to whichever facility is correct for the address, rather than assuming one system covers the whole county.

Garden Clearance in Essex — your questions.
Do you cut back overgrown areas or just remove what's already cut?
Both — cutting back brambles, hedges and overgrown shrubs is part of the job, not just hauling away existing piles.
Where does the green waste actually go?
To a licensed green-waste facility appropriate to the address — Essex County Council, Southend-on-Sea and Thurrock each run separate recycling centre schemes, and we use the correct one.
Can you clear a rural garden with a long driveway?
Yes, we survey access — gates, driveway length and turning space — before the job so the right van is sent.
Is there a minimum job size?
No, a small courtyard tidy is priced the same way as a larger plot — by the van space actually used.
Do you take away fallen tree branches?
Yes, smaller fallen branches and limbs are included; larger tree work needing a chainsaw crew is a separate specialist job.
