How it works
- STEP 1
Send photographs
Snap the garden clearance at your Edinburgh address and send it on WhatsApp. Photographs are the single biggest factor in quote accuracy — the more you send, the tighter the fixed price.
- STEP 2
Receive a fixed price
We assess volume, weight and access, then confirm one fixed figure covering labour, transport and licensed disposal for the Edinburgh collection. Nothing is added afterwards.
- STEP 3
Choose your slot
Same-day, next-day, weekend and evening windows are offered subject to vehicle availability. You get a confirmed window rather than an all-day wait.
- STEP 4
We load and clear
The crew arrives with the correct vehicle, loads everything by hand, and sweeps up. The Edinburgh garden clearance is weighed and documented at a licensed facility afterwards.
What affects the price
Garden Clearance starts from £120. Your fixed price is confirmed once we have seen photographs.
- Volume — how much of the van the load actually fills
- Weight — dense material such as rubble, soil and concrete costs more at the gate
- Waste type — recycling routes are cheaper than general disposal
- Access — stairs, long carries and restricted parking add labour time
- Timing — weekend, evening and emergency slots carry an uplift
- Location — travel beyond the included mileage is charged at the vehicle rate
Collecting in Edinburgh
Edinburgh sits in City of Edinburgh, within Scotland. We collect from Edinburgh City Centre, Leith, Morningside, Portobello, Stockbridge and Corstorphine and the surrounding streets. Collections are planned around access, parking and permit restrictions before the vehicle is dispatched.
What we do and do not take
Clearance and removal only. We do not carry out landscaping, turfing, digging out or pesticide treatment such as Japanese knotweed.
All waste is collected by registered waste carriers and taken to licensed facilities. Waste transfer documentation is provided where applicable.
Garden Clearance FAQs
Do you cut the overgrowth back or just take it?
Cutting back is available as a priced labour item on Edinburgh jobs. If you have already cut it, collection alone is the cheaper route.
What if there is Japanese knotweed?
We will not touch it. Knotweed is a controlled waste requiring a specialist licensed contractor, and moving it incorrectly is an offence.
What happens to the waste after collection?
It goes to a licensed transfer station where it is separated. Recoverable material from Edinburgh collections is recycled, and only the residual fraction goes to final disposal.
Do I need to be there?
Not always. If the garden clearance is accessible from outside at the Edinburgh property, we can collect with photographs, written instructions and payment agreed in advance.
Is this cheaper than hiring a skip in Edinburgh?
Frequently. There is no permit to buy, no driveway lost for a week, and you only pay for the space the waste actually occupies. For small and medium garden clearance loads in Edinburgh, a wait-and-load collection usually wins on both price and speed.
Are you a licensed waste carrier?
Yes. Every Edinburgh collection is carried out by a registered waste carrier and taken to a licensed facility. Waste transfer documentation is issued where duty of care applies.
Can you collect the same day in Edinburgh?
Often, yes. Same-day garden clearance in Edinburgh depends on vehicle availability at the time you call. If we cannot reach you today we will say so rather than take the booking and let you down.

Moving as well as clearing in Edinburgh?
Clearances often sit either side of a move. If you need the furniture that is staying taken to a new address in Edinburgh, that is a removals job rather than a waste job — and it is priced separately.
