Garden waste clearance in Ashton-in-Makerfield

Small tidy-up starts at from £95 and full load / strip-out is from £360. Green waste is priced by volume and composted at a licensed facility. Soil, turf, rubble and hardcore are heavier than they look, so they are quoted separately by weight band — always before the first barrow moves. Prices are identical across WN4 — postcode never changes the figure, only volume and access do.

86% of Ashton-in-Makerfield jobs are collected the same or next day. Send photos before midday and a crew of 3 can usually be with you that afternoon; written prices normally land within 3 hours.

Access here is typically a narrow frontage with no side access, so the load comes out through the front door or along the rear alley to the van. Wigan Council controls parking in WN4, so where a bay suspension or permit is needed we arrange it — it is included in the quoted price, not added later.
