Garden clearance across Gloucester, from Victorian terrace yards near the docks and cathedral to the large modern suburbs, clearing overgrowth, green waste and household rubbish.
Gloucester is a cathedral city on the Severn, and its housing is a patchwork. There are Victorian terraces with narrow back yards, between-the-wars semis with deeper gardens, and big modern suburbs where lawns and fences are all much the same. That variety means no two garden clearances start in the same place.
We work with homeowners, landlords, agents and families who need a garden brought back under control. Some jobs are a few hours of hand work, others take a day or more with a vehicle loaded several times. We cover Gloucester and the surrounding area, and offer a free quote once we know the size of the plot and the route out.
In the older parts of the city, the usual problem is a back yard where weeds have broken through paving, a shed has fallen in, and years of stored rubbish have built up against the walls. In the suburbs, it is typically long grass, tall hedges and a pile of boxes by the fence. We cut back vegetation, remove weeds and roots, dismantle rotten sheds, and clear the rubbish. Where the property has been empty, we often find a mix of everything, so we sort as we go.
If you are planning to lay a new lawn or put up fencing, clearing first keeps costs predictable. We take the plot back to the ground so that you or a contractor can see levels, soil and boundaries. Victorian yards may hide old paving or cellars' coal chutes, while suburban plots often hide builders' rubble. Either way, it is better found early. We can also lift old slabs and remove the base material, if you want a blank space.
Terraced streets usually have no rear access, so rubbish goes through the house, and parking outside can be tight. Suburban homes more often have a side gate and room for a vehicle on the drive. We carry by hand where we must, protect floors and keep the route tidy. Green waste, timber and general rubbish are separated for disposal, which saves you hiring a skip. For flats or shared yards, check access with the freeholder or neighbours beforehand.
We cover Gloucester and the neighbouring Severn Vale, including Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Stroud and Ross-on-Wye. The city has older streets, canal-side areas, large estates and fringe villages, so we adjust our approach to match each one. Send your postcode and a few photographs, or request a visit, and we will give a clear answer on what the work involves and when we could start.
We also take on garden clearance work in nearby Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Ross-on-Wye.

“The guys were prompt & proffesional removed an old ash for me thanks guys”
Yes. We carry waste out through the house in manageable loads, protecting floors and doorways. It takes longer than a plot with a side gate, so tell us about the route when requesting a quote.
Yes. We often work to a turnaround between lets. Give us your target date, the address and access arrangements, and we will say honestly whether the timing is realistic.
Usually, yes. Timber sheds can be taken apart and removed, and old slabs lifted and carried away. Concrete bases and large quantities of paving take longer and should be mentioned in advance.
