Van Thats Quick clears garden waste in Amersham so you do not have to make endless trips to a recycling centre or wait for a council green collection that is too small for the job anyway. Our man and van crews come to you, load everything straight from the garden, and take it away the same day. Whether you have just tackled an overgrown border, taken down a hedge, re-turfed a lawn or ripped out an old deck, we get the green waste and debris off your property and leave you with the tidy garden you were after.

We clear the full range of garden and green waste: grass cuttings, hedge and shrub trimmings, leaves, weeds and plant matter, branches and small logs, soil, turf and topsoil, gravel and spent compost. We also take the harder stuff that comes with a garden makeover — old decking and fence panels, rotten sheds, greenhouse frames, broken paving slabs, pots and planters, and the clutter that collects in the sheds and detached garages that HP6 plots tend to have. If your garden project has produced a pile you cannot shift, we can almost certainly take it.

Garden waste is heavy and awkward, which is exactly why a man and van makes sense on a large Amersham plot. Soil, turf and wet greenery weigh far more than they look, and barrowing it from the bottom of a long garden is hard work. Our two-person crews carry it out for you — through side returns, along gravel drives, or straight through the house on protective sheets if that is the only route — and load it into the van. You never have to lift or haul anything yourself.

Pricing is by volume, so you pay for the space your green waste fills plus labour and disposal. A small load starts from £95, a quarter load from £149, a half load from £245, and a full Luton van from £480. Soil, turf and rubble are dense, so a small-looking pile can weigh a lot — send a photo on WhatsApp and we will factor that in and give you a fixed price before we arrive, with nothing added at the end.

Green waste recycles well, and we make the most of that. Garden waste is taken to licensed facilities where it can be composted or processed rather than sent to landfill, and soil, rubble and timber are separated for recycling wherever possible. It is the responsible way to deal with a garden clearance and it is how we handle every load. If you need to know how your waste is dealt with, just ask.

We work with homeowners, tenants, landlords and the gardeners and landscapers who look after Amersham gardens, as well as the surrounding villages — Chalfont St Peter, Chalfont St Giles, Fulmer, Denham, Iver and Beaconsfield. For gardeners who generate green waste every week, we can collect on an ongoing basis so it never backs up on site. Same-day and next-day slots are usually available, and the A40 and M40 Junction 1 put us minutes away.

Ask us for the current insurance certificate, cover limits and exclusions that apply to your job before you book.

Garden clearances are seasonal and often urgent — a spring tidy, an autumn cut-back after the leaves come down off the mature trees around the Common, or getting a garden presentable before a sale or a viewing. Because we work on demand rather than on a council schedule, we can usually fit you in within a day or two of your call. And unlike a skip, there is nothing blocking your drive, no permit to arrange, and no filling it yourself in the rain — we simply arrive, clear it, and go.

To book, call 07400 640002, WhatsApp a photo of the garden, or request a quote. You can read the full service on our garden waste removal page, or see everything we cover locally on our Amersham page.

What garden waste we take in Amersham

Amersham gardens are the Chilterns in miniature: mature hedging, established trees, sloping plots running down towards the Misbourne, and a lot of beech and holly that produces serious volume when it is finally cut back. The jobs we get called to in HP6 and HP7 are rarely a bin-full — they are a hedge that has had two years’ growth taken off it in a weekend, a conifer row felled, an overgrown back plot brought under control before a sale, or old decking and panel fencing coming out after a storm.

We take green waste, branches and logs, hedge and conifer cuttings, turf and soil, root balls, bagged clippings, and the timber and rubble that comes with old decking, sheds, raised beds and fence panels. Because it goes in the same load, you do not have to separate the green from the timber the way you would for the council. We carry it out from wherever it is — back gardens, side returns, sloping plots — and we sweep the drive and path afterwards.

Green loads start at £95 and run to £480 for a full Luton, priced by the space filled. Soil, turf and root balls are dense, so a pile that looks small can price higher than the same volume of clippings — that is exactly why we fix the price from a photo rather than over the phone. We are twenty-five minutes up the A413 from Uxbridge and work seven days, so a Sunday cut-back can be gone on Monday.

Buckinghamshire Council charges £65 for one to three items, £130 for four to six and £195 for seven to nine, and nine is the cap. It also collects from outside the property only — nothing from inside the house, from an outbuilding, or up a flight of steps. For a handful of ordinary items you can get to your boundary yourself, that is cheaper than us and we will say so.

Amersham has its own recycling centre on London Road East (HP7 9DT), open seven days a week and free for Buckinghamshire residents arriving in a car with no booking. Vans, pick-ups and minibuses are a different matter: those need a council e-permit arranged in advance. The Chesham site on Latimer Road (HP5 1TL) is the usual backup, and it closes every Wednesday and Thursday. Our south Bucks tip guide covers the sites and the rules in full.

Garden waste removal in Amersham — your questions answered

Do I need a brown bin or a council garden waste subscription? expand_more

No. That is the point of the service. Your brown bin is limited by size, by collection day and by what the council will accept, and it takes no soil, turf, timber or root balls at all. We take the lot in one visit, including everything the bin refuses, and we do the carrying.

Can you take soil, turf and root balls in Amersham? expand_more

Yes, and it is a normal Chilterns job. Be aware that soil and turf are heavy for their size, so they price on weight-adjusted volume rather than on how big the heap looks. Send a photo with something for scale and we will give you a fixed figure before we come.

Will you take old decking, fence panels and a shed? expand_more

Yes, all of it, and in the same load as the green waste. We can dismantle decking, panel fencing and small sheds as part of the job — tell us when you book so we bring the tools and allow the time.

What about the Amersham tip — could I take it myself? expand_more

You can, but check the vehicle rule first. Amersham recycling centre on London Road East (HP7 9DT) is open seven days and free for Bucks residents in a car with no booking, but vans, pick-ups and minibuses need a council e-permit arranged in advance, and Chesham (HP5 1TL) closes on Wednesdays and Thursdays. If you were going to borrow or hire a van for the run, we are usually the cheaper and quicker option once you count the trips.

How quickly can you clear a garden in HP6 or HP7? expand_more

Usually same or next day. We are about twenty-five minutes away up the A413 and run 7am to 10pm, seven days a week including bank holidays. Weekend cut-backs cleared on the Monday are one of the most common bookings we take in Amersham.

Where we clear garden waste near Amersham

Garden clearances run from our Uxbridge (UB8) base, about fifteen minutes from Amersham on the A40. As well as HP6 we cover Chalfont St Peter, Chalfont St Giles, Denham, Fulmer, Iver and Beaconsfield. No council green-bin wait and no permit needed.

No surprise bills

What the price includes — and what it doesn't

The most common complaint about clearance companies is a price that grows once the van is loaded. So here is the whole of ours, before you book, including the parts that cost extra.

Included in the price we quote

No line of this is billed separately afterwards.

  • Labour — the crew, the carrying and the loading.
  • The van, the fuel, ULEZ and the congestion charge — London charges are ours, not yours.
  • Disposal and recycling of the load — the tipping cost is inside the price.
  • Access from anywhere on the property — any room, up or down stairs, or out of the garden.
  • VAT — the price you are shown is the price you pay.
  • Waste transfer paperwork for your load, on request — so your duty of care is documented.

Priced separately, or not carried at all

Told to you up front, never discovered on the invoice.

  • Upholstered seating and mattresses carry their own disposal fee, because the law forces them down a more expensive route than the rest of your load. The amount is on our pricing page before you book.
  • Hazardous items — paint, chemicals, asbestos, tyres and gas bottles cannot travel in a general load and need a specialist route. We will tell you which one.
  • Fridges, freezers and electricals have a separate WEEE route — flag them when you book so we arrive with the right van.
  • Anything flammable, explosive, illegal, or alive — we cannot carry it, and we will say so before the day.

If there turns out to be more than we quoted for, you hear the new price before anything goes in the van — not once it is loaded, and not on the invoice. The same goes for access: tell us when you book if your street is permit-only or on a red route, or if the job is above the third floor with no lift, and we plan for it instead of pricing round it on the day.

Where it actually goes

What happens to your waste after we drive away

Most clearance companies stop this story at the word "recycled". Here is the actual route your load takes, including the part of it that nobody advertises.

  1. It goes in by hand

    Everything is carried out and loaded by the crew — from the room, the garden or the kerbside. What is in the load matters, because what is in it decides where it is legally allowed to go.

  2. Sorted, not buried

    The load goes to a licensed transfer station or recycling centre, where it is separated by material. It is not tipped straight into a hole in the ground.

  3. Recovered by material

    Metal, wood, cardboard, textiles and electricals are pulled out for recycling or recovery. Green waste is composted.

  4. The bit nobody advertises

    Upholstered furniture cannot be recycled at all. Since January 2023 the Environment Agency presumes every domestic sofa, armchair and padded dining chair contains persistent organic pollutants, so it must be kept apart from other waste and incinerated — never landfilled, never shredded for reuse. That law, not a markup, is why soft seating carries its own fee. Whatever is genuinely left after sorting goes to energy recovery.

  • Metal
  • Wood
  • Cardboard & paper
  • Textiles
  • Electricals (WEEE)
  • Green waste

We do not publish a recycling percentage. You will see "90% diverted from landfill" on a lot of clearance websites. The sorting happens at the transfer station, after our van has left, and we are not going to take credit for a figure we cannot evidence. What we can give you is the route your load takes and the paperwork for it — and if you want to check who handles it, ask us to identify the registered carrier for your collection and verify them on the Environment Agency public register before we load.

Proof

Proof, not adjectives

Anyone can type "trusted" and "reliable" onto a website. These are the things about us you can actually check.

We are a small London crew, not a national booking platform, and we are not going to pretend otherwise: we have 27 five-star reviews on Google and 3 on Yell. That is all of them. Every one is public, unedited and one tap away — which is worth rather more than a five-figure review count you have no way of reading.
