Overview
Green waste removal in Liverpool Street EC2 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in City of London, most of them period conversion. 4,914 households sit inside this EC2 patch, 98% of them flats, so we quote on access near Broadgate Circle rather than a London average.
How it works
Step 1
Roughly how many cubic yards, whether it is soft green waste or heavy soil and turf, and whether there is rear access or everything has to go through the house.
Step 2
Green waste is priced by volume and soil or rubble by weight, so the quote separates the two rather than guessing at one blended rate.
Step 3
Branches and hedge cuttings cut down to fit the van; loose material bagged so nothing spills through a hallway or side return on the way out.
Step 4
Green waste, soil and any rubble kept apart in the van, because the green waste site and the inert tip are two different gate fees.
Step 5
Weighed in at a licensed green waste or inert site and the transfer note emailed the same day.
Why choose us
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in EC2, with metal stud partitions between rooms — a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in EC2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC2 neighbourhood.
Registered waste carrier working to duty-of-care rules for green and inert waste. Soft green waste is taken to a composting or green waste treatment site, soil and turf to inert recycling, and any invasive plant material identified on site is routed to a licensed consignment facility rather than mixed with standard garden waste.
Two crew and a Luton on most garden clearances; three crew and a tipper where the load is mainly soil, turf or rubble and weight rather than volume decides the run. Broadgate estate has its own access rules and booked bays; surrounding streets are red-route controlled.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail) is the nearest station, so a EC2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Grass cuttings and light green waste, per cubic yard | £55 | By volume | Light and bulky rather than heavy, so it is priced on the space it takes in the van, not its weight. |
| Hedge cuttings and branches, per cubic yard | £65 | By volume | Woody material needs to be cut down to fit before loading, which adds labour over a straight bag-and-carry. |
| Quarter-load mixed garden waste | £120 | 45–60 min | A typical small London garden clearance, priced on volume plus the green waste site's gate fee. |
| Half-load garden waste | £210 | 1–2 hrs | Covers a full rear garden clear where there is no side access and everything has to come out through the house. |
| Full Luton load of garden waste | £360 | 2–3 hrs | Full van, two crew and the site fee, typical after years of growth are tackled in one visit rather than several bin cycles. |
| Soil, turf and rubble, per cubic yard | £85 | By volume | These are weighed rather than measured by volume — a yard of wet turf or soil can weigh several times the same yard of hedge cuttings. |

Working in Liverpool Street
Census 2021 puts Liverpool Street at 4,914 households with a median age of 36.9. The period conversion stock is renter-heavy, which is why 2% houses and 98% flats need different handling in EC2.
48% of households rent privately and 37% own, which is why green waste removal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in EC2, with metal stud partitions between rooms — a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here behind the plaster in EC2. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — the pattern behind 4,914 households inside the EC2 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Liverpool Street: commuter gateway with Broadgate offices on one side and Spitalfields market on the other. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Liverpool Street sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Broadgate estate has its own access rules and booked bays; surrounding streets are red-route controlled. Nearest station is Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail), and two crew and a Luton on most garden clearances; three crew and a tipper where the load is mainly soil, turf or rubble and weight rather than volume decides the run.

Grass cuttings and light green waste, per cubic yard starts at £55 in Liverpool Street for Liverpool Street (EC2) addresses, with 15% social-rented stock nearby, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. Volume for soft green waste, weight for soil and rubble, and access in Liverpool Street. A rear garden with no side return means every barrow load comes out through the house on City of London bookings — and 4,914 households on this patch, with Broadgate Circle a few streets away, which is the single biggest driver of price in inner London terraces.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on the streets near Broadgate Circle, with 2% of Liverpool Street homes being houses. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Liverpool Street most weeks across EC2, with Broadgate Circle a few streets away.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on EC2 jobs, with this being a short walk from Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail).
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in in this 98% flats neighbourhood. With 98% of Liverpool Street homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on City of London bookings, with 51% one-person households here — and 4,914 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Registered waste carrier working to duty-of-care rules for green and inert waste for Liverpool Street (EC2) addresses. Soft green waste is taken to a composting or green waste treatment site, soil and turf to inert recycling in Liverpool Street — and Broadgate Circle a few streets away, with 15% social-rented stock nearby, and any invasive plant material identified on site is routed to a licensed consignment facility rather than mixed with standard garden waste. That paperwork is what most City of London letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on City of London bookings, with 98% of homes here being flats.
Japanese knotweed and other invasive plant material, which needs a licensed consignment route rather than standard green waste disposal; Tree felling and stump grinding above hedge height across EC2, with 4,914 households on this patch, which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers — and 48% of EC2 homes being privately rented, which are hazardous waste and need a specialist carrier; Pond water, fish and livestock waste, which fall outside standard green waste licensing. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Liverpool Street EC2 price you agree is the price you pay on the Liverpool Street rounds, with 51% one-person households here.
All three. With 48% of Liverpool Street privately rented and 37% owner-occupied, roughly half the EC2 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on EC2 jobs — and this being a short walk from Liverpool Street (Central, Circle, Elizabeth line, National Rail), with this being City of London Corporation territory.
