Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Romford, garden clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £120. With 12% of Collier Row's 3,167 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in RM5 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
A couple of photographs is usually enough to price a London garden accurately.
Step 2
Hallway sheeted where the only way out is through the house — the norm in a terrace.
Step 3
Cut back to the agreed line, bagged as we go so nothing is left piled on the patio.
Step 4
Green waste for composting, timber and hard landscaping separated for the right facility.
Step 5
Paths and hallway swept, transfer note handed over, before-and-after photos on request.
Why choose us
Two crew and a Luton or tipper; three where everything has to be carried through a hallway. Wide suburban roads, driveways and easy kerbside loading.
Usually bookable within 48 hours outside of March to June, when garden work books out a week ahead. Romford (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a RM5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — and wide suburban roads, driveways and easy kerbside loading in RM5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — which is what a 12% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Collier Row actually produces.
Registered waste carrier; green waste goes to a composting facility and every load leaves with a transfer note in your name.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small courtyard or balcony tidy | £120 | 1–2 hrs | A quarter-load of green waste, hand-carried through the house because most London terraces have no side return. |
| Half-load green waste | £210 | 2–3 hrs | Prunings, turf and pots, taken to a composting site rather than a general transfer station. |
| Full Luton load | £390 | 3–5 hrs | An overgrown rear garden cut back and cleared, including the bags that have been by the back door since spring. |
| Shed or greenhouse dismantle and remove | £180 | 2 hrs | Dismantled panel by panel; glass is wrapped and separated because it cannot go in with green waste. |
| Decking, fencing or hard landscaping removal | £320 | 4 hrs+ | Treated timber and concrete are charged at a different rate than green waste, so it is priced separately. |

Scope
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again.
