Van Thats Quick clears garden waste across London so you do not have to make endless trips to the tip or wait weeks for a council green bin that is too small 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 general clutter that collects in sheds and garages. 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. Soil, turf and wet greenery weigh far more than they look, and dragging bags through the house to the front is hard work and makes a mess. Our two-person crews carry it out for you — through side returns, down alleyways, 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 small landscaping and gardening businesses right across Greater London, from our Uxbridge base out to the north, south, east and central boroughs. For gardeners and landscapers who generate green waste regularly, we can collect on an ongoing basis so it never backs up on site. Same-day and next-day slots are usually available, and we are comfortable with London parking restrictions, permit streets and low-emission zones.

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, or getting a rental garden presentable before viewings. 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, which beats waiting a fortnight for a green-bin collection that only takes a couple of bags anyway. 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. We will clear your green waste quickly, load it all ourselves, and recycle it responsibly — for a fair fixed price.

Garden waste removal — your questions answered

How much does garden waste removal cost? expand_more

By volume: a small load starts from £95 and a full Luton van from £480. Because soil, turf and rubble are heavy, send a photo on WhatsApp so we can give an accurate fixed price up front.

Do you take soil, turf and rubble? expand_more

Yes. We take soil, turf, topsoil, gravel, broken slabs and paving alongside green waste. These are dense, so let us know roughly how much so we bring the right van.

Can you remove an old shed, decking or fencing? expand_more

Yes. We clear old sheds, decking, fence panels, greenhouse frames and the debris from garden makeovers, as well as the greenery itself.

Do I have to bag it up or bring it to the front? expand_more

No. Our crew collects straight from the garden, carrying it out through side returns or through the house on protective sheets, and loads it for you.

Is the garden waste recycled? expand_more

Green waste goes to licensed facilities to be composted or processed rather than landfilled, and soil, timber and rubble are separated for recycling where possible.

Can you collect regularly for gardeners? expand_more

Yes. Landscapers and gardeners can set up ongoing collections so green waste never builds up on site.

Where we clear garden waste

Garden clearances run from our Uxbridge (UB8) base across Hillingdon, South Bucks and west London, including Hayes, Gerrards Cross, Denham, West Drayton, Ruislip, Northwood, Feltham and Ealing. No council brown-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 22 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.
