Garden Clearance Plumstead

Garden Clearance Throughout Plumstead

Plumstead terraces often have long, narrow back gardens that slope with the hill, and many have no side gate at all. That means every branch, slab and broken fence panel has to come back through the house. EM Waste Clearance takes on that work for homeowners, landlords and tenants across Plumstead, carrying everything out carefully, loading the van and leaving the garden clear.

What we take from gardens

• Grass cuttings, hedge trimmings, branches and leaves
• Old sheds, greenhouses and summer houses, taken apart on site
• Fence panels, posts, trellis and decking
• Paving slabs, bricks, rubble and turf
• Garden furniture, BBQs, pots and children’s play equipment

When people usually call

The most common call we get from SE18 is from someone who has just moved into a house near Plumstead Common, East Wickham or Shooters Hill and found the back garden buried under years of green waste and dumped rubbish. We also clear up after landscaping projects, when the old patio and fencing have been replaced and the waste is stacked by the back door, and for landlords getting a property ready to let or sell.

We clear, we don’t garden

Our service is about clearing and removing waste. We don’t offer gardening or tree work and we won’t cut back an overgrown plot. If some of your garden needs cutting back before it can be cleared, mention it when you call and we’ll talk through the options.

Why not just get a skip?

A skip needs a permit from the Royal Borough of Greenwich if it goes on the road, and on Plumstead’s steeper streets it’s not always easy to place. You’d also have to carry everything through the house and lift it in yourself. We bring the van, the team and a fixed price agreed before we start, based on volume and access. Green waste is composted, and timber, metal and hardcore are separated for recycling, with up to 90% of what we collect recycled or reused.

We’re fully licensed and insured, registered as a waste carrier (CBDU333885), and every job comes with a waste transfer note. Our teams cover Plumstead, Woolwich, Abbey Wood, Shooters Hill, East Wickham, Welling and Thamesmead.

To give you an accurate price, send photos of the waste and one of the route out, whether that’s through the hallway or along a passage. Cuttings don’t need bagging and you don’t need to sort anything; we separate it all for recycling once it’s loaded. If there’s an old greenhouse in the mix, we’ll dismantle it carefully and remove it in the same visit.
