Hillingdon · UB3 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Hayes fitters · Fixed written pricesGreen waste removal in Hayes UB3, Hillingdon, from £55.

You get a fixed price in writing, an insured fitter and a tidy finish.
Overview
Green waste removal in Hayes UB3 is a fixed-price visit for mixed-tenure homes in Hillingdon, most of them inter-war. 14,482 households sit inside this UB3 patch, 34% of them flats, so we quote on access near The former EMI factory at Blyth Road 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. New blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a UB3 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect solid London stock brick in UB3, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — the pattern behind 14,482 households inside the UB3 neighbourhood in UB3, 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 — with 22% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
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. |

The cleaners Constantin and arrived in time and never stopped until the work was completed to the best of their ability. I would recommend a more upgraded carpet cleaner as I was hoping for a hot steam cleaner to penetrate areas or heavy foot traffic on the carpet. They never gave up until the look… Read in full →

Working in Hayes

Expect solid London stock brick in UB3, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — the pattern behind 14,482 households inside the UB3 neighbourhood behind the plaster in UB3. 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 — with 22% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Hayes knows the pattern near The former EMI factory at Blyth Road: the old EMI works, the canal and a town centre transformed by the Elizabeth line. We plan the UB3 visit around it. Hayes is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: new blocks need booked lifts and bays; older streets have driveways and canal bridges. Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, 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 Hayes on this side of Hillingdon — and this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory, with 22% 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 across UB3. A rear garden with no side return means every barrow load comes out through the house around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line) — and 33% of UB3 homes being privately rented, with The former EMI factory at Blyth Road 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 Hayes rounds, with 66% of Hayes homes being houses. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Hayes most weeks on UB3 jobs, with The former EMI factory at Blyth Road 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 across UB3, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the streets near The former EMI factory at Blyth Road. With 34% of Hayes homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm across UB3 — and this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory, with 33% of UB3 homes being privately rented, 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 this side of Hillingdon. Soft green waste is taken to a composting or green waste treatment site, soil and turf to inert recycling across UB3 — and 14,482 households on this patch, with 22% 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 Hillingdon letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat around Hayes & Harlington (Elizabeth line), with 34% 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, which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers on Hillingdon bookings, with this being London Borough of Hillingdon territory — and 66% of Hayes homes being houses, 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 Hayes UB3 price you agree is the price you pay on the Hayes rounds, with a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood.
All three. With 33% of Hayes privately rented and 45% owner-occupied, roughly half the UB3 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across UB3 — and 45% owner-occupation locally, with 14,482 households on this patch.
