A local brief makes a difference
Gardeners in Kingston upon Thames.
A Kingston gardening quote should be clear about what is cut, what is gathered and what is taken away. Send separate photographs of the planted areas, lawn and any existing waste so providers can price the complete request.
Free to request. Providers price the work, access and waste removal; you choose whether to book.
Include your neighbourhood
For requests in Kingston upon Thames, tell us where the property is — for example Surbiton, New Malden, Tolworth, Chessington, Kingston — and give the full postcode. Availability is checked for your address.
Keep existing piles separate from newly created cuttings
If there is already a pile beside the shed, include it in the photographs and say whether it contains only plants or also timber, soil and household rubbish. Removing that pile is additional to cutting the lawn or pruning shrubs. Ask the gardener to list both parts of the job. This avoids a quote that covers the work they create while leaving the material you most wanted removed.
Kingston does not take extra waste beside the garden bin
Kingston’s green-lid guidance requires garden material to go loose into the bin and says extra waste left beside it will not be collected. Soil, timber, rubble and plant pots are among the exclusions. Before planning to keep material after a substantial tidy, check the actual capacity and subscription. A full bin with overflow bags is not the same as an arranged removal service for the gardener’s complete load.
Describe front and rear areas as separate tasks
For a Surbiton or New Malden property with more than one outdoor area, explain which sections need attention. A front hedge, rear lawn and side passage can have different access and waste requirements. Photograph gates and steps along the whole route. If the gardener can enter one area while you are out but needs you for another, include that limitation when proposing dates rather than discovering it after arrival.
Compare an agreed finish, including the last load
A useful illustrative scope is: “Cut the rear lawn, restore the edges beside the path, weed the marked beds and remove the green waste from this visit plus the separate pictured pile. Keep the labelled planting. Please identify any non-green material that needs another arrangement.” Ask for the full price, exclusions and any need for a site assessment. Your Kingston postcode then allows the team to check the request with participating providers.

Questions about gardening in Kingston upon Thames
Can extra garden bags be left beside a Kingston green-lid bin?
Kingston’s guidance says crews do not collect extra garden waste beside the bin. Agree suitable removal for overflow rather than assuming it will be taken.
Can soil and old plant pots go in that bin?
The council excludes soil and plant pots, along with other listed materials. Identify them separately in a clearance or collection request.
Can a gardener collect an old waste pile during a mowing visit?
You can request both, but the pile must be shown and included in the quotation. Describe its contents, size and access so the provider can confirm whether they can remove it.
