Tower Hamlets · E14 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Isle of Dogs fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide green waste removal in Isle of Dogs E14 for houses and flats around Island Gardens and the Greenwich foot tunnel. 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
Booked mostly by renter-heavy households around Crossharbour, green waste removal here covers supply-free fitting from £55. With 84% of Isle of Dogs's 12,491 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in E14 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
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Crossharbour (DLR) is the nearest station, so a E14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 27% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in E14, 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, as the Isle of Dogs stock goes, the reality on the streets around Island Gardens and the Greenwich foot tunnel.
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. Single access roads onto the island, dock-side loading bays and lift booking in every block.
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 Isle of Dogs
In Isle of Dogs (E14) the split is 84% flats to 16% houses over 12,491 households, and the stock is post-war.
Because 45% of Isle of Dogs is privately rented and 28% socially rented, a lot of E14 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, where 27% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in E14. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the Isle of Dogs stock goes, the reality on the streets around Island Gardens and the Greenwich foot tunnel is the fault we are called back to undo.
Isle of Dogs sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — dock basins ringed by apartment blocks, with Island Gardens facing Greenwich — which is why a E14 quote is not a Tower Hamlets average.
On access, single access roads onto the island, dock-side loading bays and lift booking in every block — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Crossharbour (DLR).
