Garden Clearance Doncaster — Overgrown Gardens Cleared Across the Borough
Garden clearance for Doncaster and the towns and villages around it: the big gardens of Bessacarr, Cantley and Sprotbrough, the semis of Intake, Edenthorpe and Kirk Sandall, the terrace yards of Hexthorpe, Balby and Bentley, and the long back gardens of the former pit villages — Armthorpe, Thorne, Hatfield, Stainforth, Rossington, Conisbrough and Mexborough. Charlotte comes down the M18 from Howden, half an hour, cuts back, digs out, dismantles and loads. Green waste to a composting site, the rest to a licensed transfer station, fixed price from photos.

Gardens in Doncaster — big plots, good access, a lot to take out
Doncaster's gardens are generous. The suburbs were laid out with space, and the former mining villages — built by the Coal Board with a vegetable plot behind every house — have some of the longest back gardens in South Yorkshire. That is good news for access (side gates and drives are the norm, and the van gets close) and it means the volume of waste that comes out of a garden that has been left for a few years is larger than it looks from the back door. A village garden that has gone over is usually two loads, sometimes three.
The terraces in Hexthorpe, Balby, Hyde Park and Bentley are the exception — small yards, on-street parking, sometimes a back lane. Charlotte checks the street before quoting and, where there is no side access, everything comes through the house with the floors sheeted.
Doncaster Council's garden waste service is subscription-based and takes what fits in the bin; for a shed to come down, a garden gone over or a yard full of mixed rubbish, a licensed collection is simpler. Green waste goes to a composting site, treated timber from fences and decking to wood recycling, greenhouse frames and old furniture to metal recycling, and the rest to a licensed transfer station.
