Garden waste removal in Dorking
Piles of cuttings and leaves collected in one visit, so your garden bin isn’t the bottleneck.
Garden waste removal in Dorking usually follows a weekend of good intentions. You’ve cut the hedge, pruned the shrubs and raked the lawn, and now there’s a heap by the shed that would fill the garden bin for two months. We’ll come and take the lot in one go.
Leaves are the big one in autumn. Dorking has woodland on several sides: Glory Woods and Devil’s Den on the sandstone hills, the Nower to the west, and Box Hill across the Mole. Gardens near those edges get a heavy fall, and left on a lawn it smothers the grass underneath.
What we do
- Collection of all garden green waste
- Grass clippings, hedge trimmings, leaves and prunings

- Responsible disposal at licensed facilities
- Included as standard with regular maintenance

One-off garden waste collection in Dorking, or none needed at all
If we already look after your garden, waste removal costs nothing extra. Clippings, hedge trimmings and prunings go in the van at the end of every visit, and you never touch a bag. A one-off garden waste collection in Dorking is for when you’ve done the work yourself, and that’s fine too. Tell us roughly what’s there, whether it’s soft stuff or woody, and how far it is from where we can park, and we’ll quote for a single clear. A photo of the heap helps.
Garden waste removal: what we take, and where it goes
We take grass, hedge cuttings, prunings, weeds, leaves and small branches. It all goes to licensed facilities, not into a hedge down a quiet lane. What we don’t take is soil, rubble, building materials or household rubbish, which need a different kind of disposal. Laurel and leylandii make the bulkiest loads by far, so if a big hedge cut is on the cards, it’s often simplest to have us do the cutting and the clearing together.
Steep drives and narrow lanes are part of life on Dorking’s hillier roads. If we can’t park close to the garden we’ll still manage, but it helps to know beforehand so we bring the right barrows.
Waste Removal in Dorking: your questions
Anything else, just ring. You’ll speak to the people who do the work.
What’s the average cost for garden waste removal?
It depends on how much there is, what it is, and how far we carry it to the van. A few bags is a small job; a whole hedge’s worth is a bigger one. We’ll give you a fixed price before we start.
Can you take leaves through the winter?
Yes. We’ll rake and collect leaves off lawns, paths and borders through autumn and winter and take them away. A lawn under a wet mat of leaves for a few weeks will yellow and thin.
What’s the best way to remove garden waste without a van?
Soft green waste can go on a compost heap if you’ve the space, and the garden bin takes a steady trickle. Woody prunings and hedge cuttings rot down very slowly at home and fill a car fast. That’s usually where a collection earns its keep.
