Hillingdon · UB7 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local West Drayton and Yiewsley fitters · Fixed written pricesLooking for green waste removal in West Drayton and Yiewsley UB7? We work in West Drayton and Yiewsley most weeks — canal-side town on the Colne, with the green, the station and new housing — and price green waste removal against that reality rather than a London average. Fixed written quote from £55, insured fitters, every fixing torqued, and the flat-pack packaging taken away.
Overview
Green waste removal in West Drayton and Yiewsley UB7 is a fixed-price visit for mixed-tenure homes in Hillingdon, most of them mainly Victorian. 7,842 households sit inside this UB7 patch, 36% of them flats, so we quote on access near West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal 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
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. West Drayton (Elizabeth line) is the nearest station, so a UB7 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from West Drayton (Elizabeth line) rather than assumed from a map in UB7, 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, as the West Drayton and Yiewsley stock goes, which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces.
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. Canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking.
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 West Drayton and Yiewsley
7,842 households sit inside the UB7 neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile mixed-tenure, and 36% of those homes are flats.
With 27% private renting against 48% owner-occupied, most UB7 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from West Drayton (Elizabeth line) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in West Drayton and Yiewsley is chosen on site — the usual failure here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the West Drayton and Yiewsley stock goes, which is what a 36% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering West Drayton and Yiewsley actually produces.
West Drayton and Yiewsley is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — canal-side town on the Colne, with the green, the station and new housing — which is why a UB7 quote is not a Hillingdon average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: canal bridges limit access; new estates have wide roads and allocated parking. West Drayton (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 West Drayton and Yiewsley on Hillingdon bookings — and West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal a few streets away, with 26% 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 on the West Drayton and Yiewsley rounds. A rear garden with no side return means every barrow load comes out through the house for West Drayton and Yiewsley (UB7) addresses, with this being a short walk from West Drayton (Elizabeth line) — and 36% of homes here being flats, 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 this side of Hillingdon, with West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal a few streets away. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in West Drayton and Yiewsley most weeks across UB7, with 64% of West Drayton and Yiewsley homes being houses.
In West Drayton and Yiewsley, 5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on Hillingdon bookings, with 48% owner-occupation locally. Ask for it in writing before the UB7 visit and it is on the job sheet.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on Hillingdon bookings. With 36% of West Drayton and Yiewsley homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 36% flats neighbourhood — and 48% owner-occupation locally, with 27% of UB7 homes being privately rented, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
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 — and this being a short walk from West Drayton (Elizabeth line), which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers on Hillingdon bookings, with Hillingdon parking rules in play, 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 West Drayton and Yiewsley UB7 price you agree is the price you pay in West Drayton and Yiewsley, with 36% of homes here being flats.

With 27% of West Drayton and Yiewsley privately rented and 48% owner-occupied, roughly half the UB7 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door across UB7 — and 27% of UB7 homes being privately rented, with West Drayton Green and the Grand Union Canal a few streets away.
