Garden Clearance Cheltenham

Which garden is yours in Cheltenham?

The garden you inherited. A Regency villa near Pittville or The Park, and with it a garden planted forty years ago by someone with more time than you. Mature trees, ambitious borders, a greenhouse with opinions. Beautiful – and relentless. We clear the backlog so you’re maintaining a garden, not excavating one.

The garden that got away. It only took one busy year. Then the brambles arrived, the shed filled itself, and now the lawn is a rumour. No judgement – this is the most common garden in Cheltenham, whatever the postcard says. One visit and it’s a garden again.

The changeover. A tenancy ending in Fairview, a sale completing in Leckhampton, a probate property in St Mark’s that needs to look loved for the photographs. You have a date; the garden doesn’t care. We work to deadlines, discreetly, and leave the place presentable.

Whichever one is yours: book online, or send us photos and get a straight quote over the phone.

What we can take away

Start small: bags of cuttings, prunings, the pile behind the greenhouse. Scale up: hedge trimmings by the metre, brambles by the bank, turf, topsoil, an entire lawn if it has to go. Keep going: garden furniture past its best, kids’ toys the kids outgrew, hot tubs that seemed a good idea, mowers that no longer mow. And at the top of the ladder: sheds dismantled and removed, fence panels and posts out, patios and paths broken up and cleared, old garden walls taken down and the rubble gone – with skip hire available when a project needs one.

If it’s in the garden and shouldn’t be, photograph it and send it over. We’ll tell you honestly if we can take it, and what it’ll cost, before you book a thing.

Who you’re dealing with

Zero Waste Group was formed in 2018 from the merger of two established clearance businesses. The company is led by Edward Cain and Michael Miller: Ed has worked in recycling and reuse since 2009, and Michael founded his first waste clearance business in 2016.

Together they lead a professional, down-to-earth team with over 30,000 completed jobs across the south of England – and a habit of treating every garden like it belongs to a neighbour.

Why use our garden clearance service in Cheltenham?

Every garden clearance company says “professional and reliable”. Here’s what we mean by it, with the consequences attached:

You can read more about us here.

✅ Licensed waste carrier (CBDU323204) – so your garden waste can’t come back to haunt you from a Cotswold lay-by. When fly-tipped waste is traced, the householder who paid the cowboy carries the liability. With us, there’s a paper trail instead.

✅ A waste transfer note after every job – emailed, dated, filed. Proof of proper disposal you’ll probably never need and will be very glad exists.

✅ Around 99% diverted from landfill – reuse and donation first for anything with life left in it, authorised recycling routes for the rest.

✅ Fully insured, DBS-checked, uniformed team – the people in your garden are exactly who they should be.

✅ A clear quote before we lift anything – volume, access and labour priced up front. No doorstep arithmetic.

✅ A tidy exit — paths swept, route out clean, nothing left but the garden.

Licensed, insured and accountable

The lanes between Cheltenham and the Cotswold villages are exactly where cheap, unlicensed clearances end up – a van load of green waste and broken fencing dumped in a field gateway at dusk. It’s ugly, it’s illegal, and when it’s traced, the fine can land on the household that paid for the “bargain”.

Hiring us closes that door completely. We’re a fully licensed waste carrier, fully insured including public liability, and every clearance ends with a waste transfer note in your inbox showing where your waste went and that it went there legally. In a town this proud of how it looks, that should be the minimum – we think it’s the whole point.

Protect yourself from rogue traders

Green waste is one of the most fly-tipped materials there is – dumped garden bags turn up on the heathland and back roads around the conurbation depressingly often, and when dumped waste is traced, the householder who paid for its removal can be held liable. Only ever use a licensed carrier. We’re licensed, insured and transparent, and you’ll have the paperwork to prove your waste was handled properly.
