Enfield · N13 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Palmers Green fitters · Fixed written pricesPalmers Green N13 is a regular stop on our Enfield round. Green Lanes' Greek Cypriot shops and long Edwardian terraces, so green waste removal here is quoted on the street the job is on — from £55, in writing, with insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Green waste removal in Palmers Green N13 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Enfield, most of them mainly Edwardian. 6,566 households sit inside this N13 patch, 41% of them flats, so we quote on access near Broomfield Park 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 some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — the reality on the streets around Broomfield Park in N13, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in N13, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 6,566 households inside the N13 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. Green Lanes is a red route with tight side-street access and permit bays.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Palmers Green (Great Northern) is the nearest station, so a N13 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 Palmers Green
Census 2021 puts Palmers Green at 6,566 households with a median age of 40. The mainly Edwardian stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 59% houses and 41% flats need different handling in N13.
30% of households rent privately and 63% own, which is why green waste removal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Palmers Green substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — the reality on the streets around Broomfield Park. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in N13, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — the pattern behind 6,566 households inside the N13 neighbourhood is the mistake that costs a N13 customer twice.

Green Lanes is a red route with tight side-street access and permit bays. Nearest station is Palmers Green (Great Northern), 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.

Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions across N13, with 63% owner-occupation locally.

With 41% of Palmers Green homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm across N13 — and 26% one-person households here, with this being London Borough of Enfield territory, 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 on the streets near Broomfield Park. Soft green waste is taken to a composting or green waste treatment site, soil and turf to inert recycling on N13 jobs — and 26% one-person households here, with 30% of N13 homes being privately rented, 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 Enfield letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on the Palmers Green rounds, with Broomfield Park a few streets away.
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 on the streets near Broomfield Park, which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers, which are hazardous waste and need a specialist carrier; Pond water, fish and livestock waste — and this being a short walk from Palmers Green (Great Northern), with a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood, which fall outside standard green waste licensing. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Palmers Green N13 price you agree is the price you pay across N13, with 6,566 households on this patch.
