Overview
Garden clearance in Southfields SW18, explained
Garden clearance in Southfields SW18 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Wandsworth, most of them mainly Edwardian. 3,815 households sit inside this SW18 patch, 44% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance rather than a London average.
How it works
How garden clearance works in Southfields
Five steps, the same on every SW18 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Terraced houses with solid London stock brick and later plasterboard linings, as the Southfields stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Photos or a visit
A couple of photographs is usually enough to price a London garden accurately.
Step 2
Protect the route
Hallway sheeted where the only way out is through the house — the norm in a terrace.
Step 3
Cut and bag
Cut back to the agreed line, bagged as we go so nothing is left piled on the patio.
Step 4
Split the load
Green waste for composting, timber and hard landscaping separated for the right facility.
Step 5
Sweep and sign off
Paths and hallway swept, transfer note handed over, before-and-after photos on request.
Why choose us
Why Southfields customers book us
What follows is specific to Southfields: its walls, its access and the paperwork Wandsworth agents ask for.
Booked around your day
Usually bookable within 48 hours outside of March to June, when garden work books out a week ahead. Southfields (District) is the nearest station, so a SW18 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Southfields walls, not generic walls
We expect solid London stock brick in SW18, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is why London Borough of Wandsworth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SW18, 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 — and championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow grid streets and permit bays.
Insured and documented
Registered waste carrier; green waste goes to a composting facility and every load leaves with a transfer note in your name.
Fixed prices
Garden clearance prices in Southfields
Fixed prices for SW18 and the rest of Wandsworth. Volume and the carry distance set the price. A garden with rear access is materially cheaper than an identical garden reached only through the living room.
| 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. |
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.
Domestic prices are the total you pay; landlord and agent invoices are plus VAT. Green waste is separated and composted where the load allows, and mixed loads are priced on the heavier stream rather than averaged.
Scope
What's included in Southfields
The same scope across SW18, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SW18 jobs: cutting back, bagging and carrying out through the house where there is no rear access, garden clearance included
- In Southfields: green waste routed to a composting facility, with the load split at source, sized for the championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow grid streets and permit bays
- Old furniture, pots, bags of soil and general garden clutter removed, checked on every SW18 visit
- Standard on Wandsworth bookings: waste transfer note issued in your name on the day, with 3,815 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- On SW18 jobs: paths and hallways sheeted and swept before we leave, agreed on the doorstep in Southfields before anything is unpacked
Not included
- Tree surgery, felling and anything requiring a chainsaw ticket or a TPO check, and we will say so before the SW18 visit rather than on the day
- Japanese knotweed, which is controlled waste and needs a specialist contractor, outside the fixed price on Southfields bookings
- Ongoing garden maintenance or planting, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SW18
- Digging out foundations, ponds or concrete bases beyond surface removal, which we refer on to the right trade in Southfields

Working in Southfields
Southfields SW18 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Southfields — the numbers that actually change a garden clearance quote.
Census 2021 puts Southfields at 3,815 households with a median age of 36.1. The mainly Edwardian stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 56% houses and 44% flats need different handling in SW18.
Owner-occupation runs at 61% in Southfields, so alongside the 33% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Expect solid London stock brick in SW18, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is why London Borough of Wandsworth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in SW18. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow grid streets and permit bays is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Southfields knows the pattern near The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance: the Grid — a planned Edwardian estate that becomes the Wimbledon gateway each June. We plan the SW18 visit around it. Southfields is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow Grid streets and permit bays. Nearest station is Southfields (District), and two crew and a Luton or tipper; three where everything has to be carried through a hallway.

Common questions
Garden clearance in Southfields SW18 — your questions.
How much does garden clearance cost in Southfields SW18?
Small courtyard or balcony tidy starts at £120 in Southfields around Southfields (District), with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Volume and the carry distance set the price. A garden with rear access is materially cheaper than an identical garden reached only through the living room on this side of Wandsworth, with 3,815 households on this patch.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Southfields SW18?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on Wandsworth bookings, with 6% social-rented stock nearby. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Southfields most weeks, with 56% of Southfields homes being houses.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Southfields?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level around Southfields (District), with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Southfields doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in around Southfields (District). With 44% of Southfields homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in Southfields — and The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance a few streets away, with Wandsworth parking rules in play, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Who books garden clearance in Southfields SW18 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 33% of Southfields privately rented and 61% owner-occupied, roughly half the SW18 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on SW18 jobs — and 6% social-rented stock nearby, with Wandsworth parking rules in play.
How quickly can you reach Southfields from your Wandsworth round?
The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance is the marker we route to on the streets near The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance, with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory, and championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow Grid streets and permit bays. A SW18 slot added to an existing Wandsworth round usually lands the same week rather than the next across SW18, with a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood.
Is same-day or evening garden clearance available in Wandsworth?
Usually bookable within 48 hours outside of March to June, when garden work books out a week ahead across SW18, with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory. Southfields sits close to Southfields (District), with 44% of homes here being flats, so we can usually add a SW18 job to an existing Wandsworth round at short notice on the streets near The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance.
