Garden Clearance in Hitchin: what actually matters here

A north Hertfordshire market town built on the wool trade, with a large Saturday market in the Georgian square, a substantial conservation area and lavender fields on the chalk to the east.

The housing stock is Timber-framed and Georgian frontages around the market, Victorian terraces at Walsworth, and interwar and post-war family housing on the Bearton and Purwell sides, which decides the tools, protection and crew size we bring to a garden clearance job.

Market Place and Sun Street are pedestrianised or access-only for most of the day and the Saturday market closes the square entirely, so centre jobs are booked for early morning outside market days, and the older frontages have narrow doorways and winding stairs that need a two-person carry.

Our Hitchin footprint runs across SG4 and SG5 and takes in Walsworth, Bearton, Purwell and Westmill, all on the same garden clearance pricing.

Hitchin is a mid-sized town; the streets around Hitchin Market Place and St Mary's Church are the ones where we most often check loading arrangements in advance.

What a garden clearance job includes

Garden clearance is the removal of green waste and everything else a garden accumulates: prunings, hedge cuttings, turf, soil, old decking and fence panels, broken furniture, pots, a collapsed shed. Green waste from £95 covers cutting, bagging and removal, and where the load is mixed it is priced by the volume of the van you actually fill, from £110 for a quarter load to £310 for a full load of roughly 12 cubic yards. Everything leaves with a waste transfer note under Environment Agency registration CBDU300454.

Cutting back

  • Overgrowth, brambles and shrubs cut back to the line you agree before we start
  • Hedges reduced and the arisings removed rather than left in a pile
  • Weeds and self-seeded growth cleared from beds, paths and paving joints
  • Turf and topsoil lifted where a bed or a path is being taken out

Hard items

  • Old fence panels, posts, trellis and rotten decking removed
  • Sheds and greenhouses dismantled and taken away where they are safe to break down
  • Broken garden furniture, pots, planters, play equipment and trampolines
  • Rubble, hardcore and spoil segregated as its own waste stream

Loading and disposal

  • Full crew carry — nothing left for you to drag to the front
  • Access route protected and the path or drive swept afterwards
  • Green waste taken to a composting route and hard waste segregated at a licensed transfer station
  • Waste transfer note issued in your name, usually the same day

What changes the price on a garden clearance job

  • Green waste is bulky and light, so a garden that looks like a small job can fill a van quickly. Photos of the whole garden — not just the worst corner — get you a firm price instead of a range.
  • Access decides the labour. A garden reached only through the house, or up a shared alley, is a longer carry than one with side or rear vehicle access, and we ask which yours is at quote stage.
  • Soil, rubble and hardcore are heavy waste charged as their own stream, because the transfer station charges by weight rather than volume. Mixing them into a green-waste price would be a price that changed on the day.
  • Nesting birds are protected by law between March and August, and we will not cut a hedge that is in active use. If we find a nest we stop that section and tell you.
  • Asbestos — common in old shed and garage roofing — fuel, gas bottles and chemicals are outside our licence. If we suspect it, we stop, tell you and point you to a licensed contractor rather than loading it.

Absolutely fantastic. Arrived early. Worked hard. Friendly, kind, honest. Have great attention to detail. Even vacuumed beams! Corner to corner cleaning by a very hard working family company. I’d always book them again.

Common questions

Hitchin questions, answered.

  • How quickly can you book garden clearance in Hitchin?

    Same-week slots are standard in Hitchin, with next-day often available midweek. Month-end tenancy changeovers are the busiest window across Hertfordshire, so book those a week or two ahead.

  • How is a garden clearance priced?

    Green waste starts from £95 for cut, bagged and removed. Mixed loads are priced by the volume of the van you fill — £110 a quarter, £180 a half, £310 full — with all labour, sweeping and tip fees included, so you are never charged for space you do not use.

  • Do you do the cutting as well as the taking away?

    Yes. Cutting back, dismantling and lifting is part of the job — you do not need to have piled it up first. If it is already bagged, say so and the price reflects the shorter labour.

  • Where does the green waste go?

    Green waste goes to a composting route and hard waste is segregated at a licensed transfer station, with over 90% of what we collect kept out of landfill. You get the waste transfer note either way, which is your legal record of where it went.
