We clear overgrown gardens, cut back neglected borders and remove green waste and rubbish across Worcester and nearby counties, leaving the plot ready to use, sell, let or landscape.
Gardens end up needing a clear-out for all sorts of reasons. A rental has been left untidy, a house has just been bought with a jungle at the back, a relative's property needs sorting out, or a busy family has simply lost the battle with brambles and ivy. SPR Trees and Landscapes works from Worcester and clears gardens across Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and north Warwickshire.
The job is rarely only about the plants. Someone has to decide what stays, what is cut hard back, what is dug out and what goes off site. We walk the garden with you, agree that plan and give a clear written quotation. Advice and quotations are free, and we will say so if a garden needs less work than you expected.
Clearance can mean very different things, so it helps to be specific. At the lighter end it is cutting back overgrown lawns and borders, trimming hedges and removing weeds, leaves and cuttings. Heavier jobs include bramble and ivy removal, pulling out dead shrubs, taking down self-seeded saplings, clearing rubbish left by previous occupants and removing old garden furniture, broken pots or timber. We do not treat every garden the same. A small terraced plot with a few years of neglect is a different task to a long suburban garden that has been left for a decade. Tell us what you can see and we will work out the likely effort.
Clearing is often the first stage of a bigger change. Before new turf goes down, the old surface has to be stripped, levelled and made free of roots and debris. Before a fence goes in, the line has to be open enough for posts to be dug, and any hedge or bramble growing through the old boundary needs dealing with. Before a patio, decking or border scheme, the ground needs to be clean and levelled. Doing the clearance as a proper first stage, rather than an afterthought, usually saves money later because the next team can start straight away on a clear site. We can carry on with the landscaping ourselves if you want.
The way waste leaves a garden often drives the work more than the amount of it. A house with a drive and a side gate is simple. A terrace with no rear access means everything has to be carried through the house or a shared passage, which takes longer. Green waste, soil, timber and general rubbish are usually sorted and disposed of in different ways, and we take everything away rather than leaving it in heaps for you. Please mention steps, steep ground, narrow gaps and parking limits when you ask for a quotation, so that the estimate matches what the day will really involve.

“Jim and Dan did a brilliant job on my 90ft conifer. Its a lot safer now and I have more light in the garden...”
“The boys did an excellent job... pruned my trees back and remove one tree that had split...”
“The guys were prompt & proffesional removed an old ash for me thanks guys”
We remove green waste such as brambles, branches, hedge cuttings and weeds, plus general rubbish, old timber, broken furniture and similar items. Some materials need special handling, such as asbestos, chemicals or large quantities of building waste, so please tell us what you suspect is in the garden before we visit.
Not always. If we can reach the garden through a side gate, you do not have to be there, although a quick walk round beforehand to agree what stays is important. If access is through the house, someone will need to let us in.
Yes, this is a common reason for calling us. Landlords, agents and people dealing with a property often need a garden tidied quickly. Give us an idea of the size, what has been left behind and any deadline, and we will say what can realistically be done.
We can cut back small trees and large shrubs as part of a clearance. Bigger or protected trees are a different job and may need specific permission first, so we will talk that through with you before any work starts.
