A bin is good value for regular mowing. It won't take a big cut-back, a felled tree or a hedge.
Both councils take garden waste free at their recycling centres. You need a car or van you don't mind filling with cuttings, and BCP needs a permit for vans.
Grass, leaves and soft prunings rot down well. Woody branches take years unless they are shredded.
After a big clear-out we load everything from the garden or the drive, branches and all. Runs start from £49 and a quarter van load is from £99. Send a photo for a price before we load.
