Garden Clearance prices in Hockley
Every garden clearance gets a free estimate from your answers and photos, usually the same working day, with our crew doing the clearing. If the job turns out different on the day (more waste, or harder access than described), we agree any change with you before we start. If it's already cut and you can load it, wait and load is a set price by the truck load. Get a price.

How we price garden clearance →Garden waste collection in Hockley: what to know
Hockley, Hawkwell and Hullbridge. A mix of large rural plots, established suburbs and the new builds off the B1013.
Hockley expanded after the railway arrived in 1889, when farmland was sold in plots and holiday shacks gradually gave way to permanent houses. Today it is a low-rise suburb with many bungalows and chalets on plots of varying size, joined to neighbouring Hawkwell. A row of bungalows stands north of the railway line, and there is sheltered housing close to the centre. Homes on the former Bullwood Hall prison site adjoin Hockley Woods. Because plots differ so much, side access for garden waste and space for a vehicle vary from street to street.
Villages and farm tracks around Hockley can be narrow, so we check the access on a map before we set off and bring the right size of vehicle. Rear gardens with no side access are normal for us; we barrow it through the house on sheets if we have to.
Rayleigh Recycling Centre takes garden waste. Every visit has to be booked in advance, cars included. It's cars only, so no vans, pick-ups or large trailers. For anything bigger than a couple of bags, a collection from your Hockley garden is usually quicker.
We cover Hockley's bigger gardens regularly, and we have the right kit for awkward plots and long driveways. Nothing is added on the day unless you've agreed it first.
- Charge
- No subscription: a garden waste bin is one of the three wheeled bins provided to all households and is collected weekly as part of the standard service.

Garden waste collection in Hockley: your questions
How much is garden clearance in Hockley?
Each garden gets a free estimate from your answers and photos: how much there is, whether it needs cutting back, any sheds, fencing or stumps, and how we get to it. We send it usually the same working day. Any change on the day, such as more to clear or harder access than described, is agreed with you before we start. If it's already cut and you can load it, wait and load is a set price by the truck load. Just a few bags or an old shed? Build your own collection and pay online.
How soon can you clear a garden in Hockley?
Most days. Hockley is 20 minutes from our Wickford yard, so once the price is agreed a same-day slot is usually possible if the details reach us before 11am. Later than that, it's first thing the next working day.
