Load-based & cubic-yard rates — how we charge for green waste
For garden waste we use a combination of load-based and cubic-yard rates. Small jobs may be charged by the van load or a fixed price, while larger clearances are estimated by cubic yards to reflect volume accurately. Typical structures are:What affects the price?
- Labour: time on site and number of operatives.
- Access: narrow lanes or high-traffic areas like Whitechapel Market may require extra time or a man-and-van shuttle.
- Waste volume: measured in cubic yards or counted as van loads.
- Special equipment: chipper hire or high-reach tools for tall estate hedges.
- Disposal costs: skip hire or transfer station fees reflected in the quote.

Man and van cost area notes
Our man-and-van charges vary by job type and distance. For central Whitechapel jobs requiring frequent van trips due to limited street access, expect a man-and-van hourly average or a per-load figure. Man-and-van services are ideal for narrow terraced streets, shop-front rear yards and small communal gardens where a large skip cannot be placed.Example jobs and worked prices
Example 1: Small terraced front garden (typical Whitechapel terrace). This job: light trim and tidy, 1 operative, 1 van load of clippings.Estimate: Labour 1.5 hours at £30/hr = £45; Van load disposal = £30; Equipment & admin = £20. Total ~£95. This suits owners of narrow-front terraced houses near Whitechapel Road or Vallance Road.
Example 2: Medium back garden hedge (flat above shop or mid-terrace backyard). This job: reduction and shaping, 2 operatives, 2 van loads (approx 2 cubic yards total).
Estimate: Labour 3.5 hours x 2 operatives at £30/hr = £210; Waste 2 cubic yards at £20/cubic yard = £40; Equipment & chipper surcharge = £50. Total ~£600. For restricted access, add a man-and-van shuttle surcharge of ~£50-£70.
Example 3: Large communal hedge (estate block or council courtyard). This job often requires specialist tools, 3 operatives and multiple loads. If a skip is needed, skip hire is added. Rough estimate: Labour 8 hours = £240 per operative total; waste 8 cubic yards at £20 = £160; skip hire £120; equipment £80. Total ~£600-£700 depending on site constraints.
How we present quotes
Every quote shows line-by-line costs: labour, van/load, disposal, equipment and any access-related surcharges. Our quotes also state assumptions (e.g. "waste will be X cubic yards") and the validity period of the price. If we discover more work on site, we always stop and give you an updated estimate before continuing — no surprises.Practical note for busy Whitechapel locations: high footfall streets and limited kerb space affect time on site. Markets, loading bays and double-yellow restricted areas can increase the man-and-van cost area. We factor expected parking tickets, loading restrictions and additional time into our preliminary estimate so your quote remains realistic.
Common property styles we price frequently include:
- Victorian terraced gardens — quick front trims, easy to estimate.
- Rear yards behind shops — often restricted access and short working windows.
- Communal courtyards — require coordination and larger machinery.
- New-build townhouses with high hedges — may need elevated access.

We offer a free quote policy: you can request a visit from one of our team or send clear photos and measurements for an initial estimate. For complex sites we will arrange a short site visit. All quotes are provided in writing, free of charge and with no obligation. If you prefer, we will provide a ballpark phone estimate with final confirmation after inspection.
Payments, minimum charges and scheduling
Minimum charges apply to reflect travel and setup time for central Whitechapel jobs (typically a minimum call-out charge equal to one hour of labour plus a small van fee). Weekend bookings and urgent same-day slots may incur a surcharge. Payment methods are listed on the quote — we accept common payment types and provide receipts. If a small job is requested at short notice, a man-and-van flat fee may be the most cost effective option.
What’s included: trimming, shaping, removal of arisings to our van, basic site tidy and chipper processing if required. If you need clippings left on site in tidy heaps for composting, we can arrange that and reflect the reduced disposal fees on the final invoice. We always recommend an on-site quote for larger reductions or hedge removal so we can advise on regrowth patterns and seasonal timing.
