Wandsworth · SW15 · Green waste removal
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Roehampton fitters · Fixed written pricesWe provide green waste removal in Roehampton SW15 for houses and flats around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park. 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
Green waste removal in Roehampton SW15 is a fixed-price visit for social-housing-led homes in Wandsworth, most of them inter-war. 9,539 households sit inside this SW15 patch, 75% of them flats, so we quote on access near The Alton Estate and Richmond Park 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
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. Slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches.
Same-week across every borough, with weekend availability through spring and summer when demand for a one-off garden clearance is highest. Barnes (South Western) is the nearest station, so a SW15 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Roehampton, often with surface conduit, where 35% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year in SW15, 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 Roehampton stock goes, and with 31% one-person households in Roehampton, 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. |

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 Roehampton
9,539 households sit inside the SW15 neighbourhood covering Roehampton. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 75% of those homes are flats.
With 25% private renting against 35% owner-occupied, most SW15 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Roehampton, often with surface conduit, where 35% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Roehampton is chosen on site — the usual failure here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the Roehampton stock goes, and with 31% one-person households in Roehampton, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
The Alton Estate's modernist slabs beside Richmond Park's Roehampton Gate. That character decides the practical detail of green waste removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Roehampton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches. Nearest station is Barnes (South Western), 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 Roehampton on the Roehampton rounds, with The Alton Estate and Richmond Park a few streets away — and 35% 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 on SW15 jobs. A rear garden with no side return means every barrow load comes out through the house in this 75% flats neighbourhood, with 40% social-rented stock nearby — and 9,539 households on this patch, 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 SW15 jobs, with 25% of SW15 homes being privately rented. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Roehampton most weeks on the Roehampton rounds, with The Alton Estate and Richmond Park 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 SW15, with this being London Borough of Wandsworth territory.
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in around Barnes (South Western). With 75% of Roehampton homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on SW15 jobs — and 9,539 households on this patch, with 35% owner-occupation locally, 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, which needs a qualified arborist rather than a clearance crew; Chemical-treated timber, decking oil tins and weedkiller containers on SW15 jobs, with 9,539 households on this patch, which are hazardous waste and need a specialist carrier; Pond water, fish and livestock waste — and 35% owner-occupation locally, which fall outside standard green waste licensing. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Roehampton SW15 price you agree is the price you pay on the streets near The Alton Estate and Richmond Park, with 31% one-person households here.
All three. With 25% of Roehampton privately rented and 35% owner-occupied, roughly half the SW15 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door in Roehampton, with 35% owner-occupation locally.
The Alton Estate and Richmond Park is the marker we route to on the Roehampton rounds, with Wandsworth parking rules in play, and slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches. A SW15 slot added to an existing Wandsworth round usually lands the same week rather than the next on SW15 jobs, with 75% of homes here being flats.
