Overview
Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Turnham Green, green waste removal here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 57% of Chiswick's 15,273 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in W4 shape the slot length we hold.
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. Conservation-area rules, A4 red route and very tight CPZ around Turnham Green.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Turnham Green (District, Piccadilly) is the nearest station, so a W4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W4, with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why London Borough of Hounslow kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in W4, 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 — and with 34% one-person households in Chiswick, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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 Chiswick
Census 2021 puts Chiswick at 15,273 households with a median age of 39.5. The mainly Victorian stock is mixed-tenure, which is why 43% houses and 57% flats need different handling in W4.
Owner-occupation runs at 51% in Chiswick, so alongside the 34% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Chiswick substrates run to dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W4, with metal stud partitions between rooms — which is why London Borough of Hounslow kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs on these streets — and with 34% one-person households in Chiswick, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the mistake that costs a W4 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Chiswick knows the pattern near Chiswick House and Gardens: chiswick House, the riverside and Bedford Park's Arts and Crafts streets. We plan the W4 visit around it. Chiswick 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: conservation-area rules, A4 red route and very tight CPZ around Turnham Green. Turnham Green (District, Piccadilly) 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 Chiswick for Chiswick (W4) addresses — and 34% of W4 homes being privately rented, with 51% owner-occupation locally, 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 Chiswick. A rear garden with no side return means every barrow load comes out through the house on Hounslow bookings, with 43% of Chiswick homes being houses — and 57% 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 in this 57% flats neighbourhood, with 51% owner-occupation locally. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Chiswick most weeks on Hounslow bookings, with 15% social-rented stock nearby.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level for Chiswick (W4) addresses, with 34% of W4 homes being privately rented.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on this side of Hounslow. With 57% of Chiswick homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm in this 57% flats neighbourhood — and 34% one-person households here, with this being a short walk from Turnham Green (District, Piccadilly), 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 Chiswick (W4) addresses. Soft green waste is taken to a composting or green waste treatment site, soil and turf to inert recycling in Chiswick, with 51% owner-occupation locally, 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 Hounslow letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on Hounslow bookings, with Hounslow parking rules in play.
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 Chiswick House and Gardens, with this being London Borough of Hounslow territory, which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers — and this being a short walk from Turnham Green (District, Piccadilly), 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 Chiswick W4 price you agree is the price you pay across W4, with a median age of 40 in this neighbourhood.
All three. With 34% of Chiswick privately rented and 51% owner-occupied, roughly half the W4 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the Chiswick rounds — and 15% social-rented stock nearby, with 34% one-person households here.
