A local brief makes a difference
Gardeners in Woking.
For a Woking gardening request, decide what should be maintained, what should be reduced and what can stay in the garden for composting. The same visit can produce very different quotes depending on that plan.
Free to request. Providers price the work, access and waste removal; you choose whether to book.
Include your neighbourhood
For requests in Woking, tell us where the property is — for example Horsell, Goldsworth Park, Kingfield, Maybury, Old Woking — and give the full postcode. Availability is checked for your address.
Choose a maintenance and cuttings plan together
If you compost at home in Horsell or Old Woking, tell the gardener which suitable material you want retained and where it should be placed. Keeping cuttings is not the same as asking someone to manage a compost heap: turning, sorting or moving existing material needs its own brief. For each lawn, hedge and border task, specify the finish and the destination of the material. This lets providers assess the work without assuming a van load must leave after every visit.
Woking offers two different routes for suitable garden material
Woking Borough Council directs residents to Joint Waste Solutions for its fortnightly subscription and to the Surrey Environment Partnership for home-composting guidance. Its collection list includes small branches up to 7.5cm thick but excludes soil, rubble, wood and sawdust. Check which route suits the actual material. A household subscription does not establish a professional contractor’s disposal arrangement; if removal is required, have that included explicitly in the gardening proposal.

Describe the hedge you want to keep
For a Kingfield or Maybury boundary, show both its length and the sides you can authorise access to. Explain whether the aim is a routine trim, more clearance along a path or assessment of a substantial reduction. Ask the provider to identify the plant and suitable approach before agreeing a severe cut. If a neighbouring garden is needed for access, arrange permission separately; a gardening appointment does not provide it.
Give regular visits a practical task order
A possible Goldsworth Park maintenance brief might prioritise mowing and edges on each visit, with border weeding and hedge work agreed when needed. Ask whether the provider quotes per completed scope or for a time allowance, and how unfinished priorities carry forward. Keep materials, occasional larger work and removal visible in the price. Share your Woking postcode and preferred access windows so the WhatsApp agent can check participating gardeners who may be able to quote.

What does your Woking garden need?

Choose the gardening work

Garden maintenance
Keep an established garden under control with visits planned around the jobs you need. Request regular care or a single maintenance visit without committing to a package.
Lawn mowing & grass cutting
Get a one-off cut or a regular mowing arrangement for your lawn. Include strimming, edging and clipping removal in the request if you want them priced together.
Hedge cutting & trimming
Request a trim, reshape or reduction for your hedge. Share its approximate height and length so gardeners can assess the equipment, access and work involved.
Weeding & weed control
Get help with weeds in beds, borders and other garden areas. Explain whether you want hand removal, a longer-term management plan or advice on regrowth.
