Kensington and Chelsea · W10 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Westbourne Park fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide green waste removal in Westbourne Park W10 for houses and flats around The Grand Union Canal towpath. From £55, quoted in writing before the visit, with 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 Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
This page prices green waste removal for Westbourne Park W10 specifically: post-war stock, 16% privately rented and 3,175 households in total. Work starts at £55, fixed in writing, with parking and Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
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
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 turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, so a W10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, where 13% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in W10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Westbourne Park stock goes, and with 39% one-person households in Westbourne Park, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
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 Westbourne Park
Westbourne Park W10 is post-war and social-housing-led: 94% of homes here are flats and 6% are houses, across 3,175 households (ONS Census 2021).
The social-housing-led mix here (13% owned, 16% privately rented) means a W10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork; locally that also means often with surface conduit, where 13% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Westbourne Park is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Westbourne Park stock goes, and with 39% one-person households in Westbourne Park, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Canal-side streets between Notting Hill and Paddington with a strong market culture. That character decides the practical detail of green waste removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Westbourne Park sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Canal bridges limit turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot. Nearest station is Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City), 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.

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, with this being Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea territory — and this being a short walk from Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City), 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 across W10, which fall outside standard green waste licensing. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Westbourne Park W10 price you agree is the price you pay on the Westbourne Park rounds, with a median age of 36 in this neighbourhood.
