Harrow · HA2 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local South Harrow fitters · Fixed written pricesGreen waste removal in South Harrow HA2, Harrow, from £55. A busy shopping parade and residential streets running down to Northolt, which is why our HA2 quotes account for driveways on most streets; Northolt Road is busy with short loading bays. You get a fixed price in writing, an insured fitter and a tidy finish.
Overview
Green waste removal in South Harrow HA2 is a fixed-price visit for renter-heavy homes in Harrow, most of them inter-war. 3,418 households sit inside this HA2 patch, 55% of them flats, so we quote on access near Alexandra Park, South Harrow 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
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. Driveways on most streets; Northolt Road is busy with short loading bays.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. South Harrow (Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a HA2 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here in HA2, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in HA2, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — which is why London Borough of Harrow kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
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.
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. |
