The short answer
What is garden clearance?
Garden clearance is the cutting back, clearing and removal of overgrowth, green waste and rubbish from a garden, leaving it tidy and ready to use, plant or landscape.
Able Rubbish and Gardening Services clears front and back gardens across Basildon, south Essex and east London. Alongside clearance, we remove and cut back trees, take down old sheds and fencing, and take away all the waste we create.

All FAQsHow much does garden clearance cost?
Garden clearance prices depend on the size of the garden, how overgrown it is, how much waste there is and access to the road. A small front garden tidy costs far less than a large overgrown back garden with a shed to remove. We give free quotes, and photos help.
Do you take the garden waste away?
Yes. All green waste, cuttings and garden rubbish we clear goes with us — you won’t be left with piles of bags.
Do you remove sheds and greenhouses?
Yes. We dismantle and remove old sheds, greenhouses and broken fencing, and take the materials away.
Can you access a back garden with no side gate?
Usually, yes — waste can be carried through the property with care. Tell us about access when you ask for a quote so we can plan for it.
Do you remove trees?
Yes. We take trees down or cut them back, and remove all the branches, logs and cuttings. Send photos and tell us about the tree and access. If a tree is protected you may need permission first, and we’ll flag that when we quote.
