With the canal and the river close by, Stourport-on-Severn gardens can stay damp and grow rampantly, which makes timely clearance and careful waste removal especially useful.
Stourport-on-Severn grew where the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal meets the river, and many gardens sit close to water. That brings lush growth, damp soil and, in some spots, an annual battle with brambles, nettles and fast-spreading weeds.
We deal with the whole job: cutting back, digging out, collecting rubbish and green waste, and taking it away. The idea is to bring the garden back to a condition you can maintain, plan around or hand to another trade.
Gardens near water tend to hold moisture, which suits willowherb, bramble, horsetail and bindweed very well. Left alone, these knit together and make clearing harder every year. We cut back first, then dig out the roots as thoroughly as the ground allows, and we remove debris that traps damp, such as old wood piles and rotting furniture. Some regrowth is normal, but proper root removal slows it. We will tell you honestly what keeps weeds down in damp soil.
Before laying turf or building anything, it helps to know how the ground behaves. Wet or soft areas affect how a lawn drains, where fence posts hold and whether paving settles. We clear the site and highlight the areas that stay boggy, so you can plan drainage, raised beds or a different layout. For boundary fencing close to the canal or river, we clear the line carefully and keep waste from going anywhere near the water.
Properties near the basins and waterside paths can have restricted vehicle access, with footpaths or narrow lanes to the rear. We plan carrying routes, use smaller loads where needed and park as close as we reasonably can. Wet green waste is heavier than dry, so volumes should be allowed for. All waste is removed from site and disposed of at suitable places, and nothing is tipped into ditches, towpaths or waterways.
We work in Stourport-on-Severn and the nearby towns of Kidderminster and Bewdley, so the area is routinely within our reach. The canal, the river and the older streets nearby mean access and ground conditions vary from road to road. After hearing what you have, we can visit, check the access and the state of the ground, and provide a free quotation that covers the clearance and the removal of the waste.
We also take on garden clearance work in nearby Kidderminster, Bewdley.

“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”
Some will, because damp ground suits vigorous plants. Digging out roots, then covering the soil with turf, planting or mulch, reduces regrowth. We can suggest what works for your garden.
It depends on how wet it is. Soft ground can be damaged by heavy foot traffic and vehicles, so we may wait for drier conditions or adapt the method. We will say what is sensible.
Yes. All waste is taken off site and disposed of properly. Nothing is left on towpaths, dumped in ditches or put near the water.
