How our transparent pricing works

A man and a young boy are working together in a well-maintained garden, kneeling on lush green grass near a tree with dense foliage. The boy is wearing a bright green T-shirt and jeans, holding a small gardening trowel, while the man, dressed in a light grey shirt, jeans, and a straw hat, is using a small hand shovel to dig or plant in the soil. Nearby, there are gardening tools including a metal watering can and a small black tray with a terracotta plant pot. In the background, there are various shrubs and plants, creating a lush, vibrant outdoor environment typical of a landscaped garden in Mortlake, London. The scene is set on a clear, bright day, with natural light highlighting the fresh, healthy grass, which has an even, dense texture, and the garden's natural elements. This image reflects outdoor maintenance activities that a gardening service like Gardening Mortlake might undertake, emphasizing careful planting and garden care in a suburban setting.Our pricing is built around a few simple, repeatable elements so that gardening in Mortlake is predictable and fair:

  • Labour — charged per person-hour when appropriate (for pruning, planting, turfing).
  • Load-based disposal — charged per load or per cubic yard for green waste, soil or mixed garden waste.
  • Man and van costs — for removals where a small vehicle is ideal and skips are impractical.
  • Disposal & permits — landfill or recycling charges, and any local permits for parking/loading.

These elements combine to give an itemised quote that lets you see exactly what you pay for — manpower, transport and disposal. We often quote in cubic yards for soil, compost and larger waste loads, and in load units for bulky items like sheds or patio slabs.

Load-based and cubic-yard rates explained

Load-based pricing is ideal for quick clearances and removals when the volume is easy to estimate: a small hatchback load, a full van load, or multiple man-and-van trips. For more precision we use cubic-yard rates, which are perfect for soil, hardcore and mixed green waste. A typical cubic-yard measure lets us convert wheelbarrow counts into clear, comparable pricing that beats vague estimates.

For example, green waste such as prunings and leaves might be charged per 0.5–1 cubic yard increments, while heavy materials like paving or concrete are quoted per cubic yard with an adjusted handling premium. This method keeps Mortlake gardening company prices easy to compare with skip hire or alternative removal methods.

A middle-aged man with light skin, short grey hair, wearing a white t-shirt, red gardening overalls, and teal gardening gloves, is kneeling on a neatly maintained garden bed to prune or inspect a flowering shrub with lush green leaves and vibrant purple blossoms. The garden features a well-kept lawn with dense, green grass in the foreground, bordered by flower beds and soil borders. In the background, another gardener dressed in dark trousers and a grey top is working slightly further back, near a pathway surrounded by tall trees and mature shrubs, indicating a spacious, landscaped garden in a residential area. The scene is set during a bright day with natural sunlight illuminating the outdoor environment, which appears to be in spring or early summer, consistent with the lush greenery and blooming flowers typical of a garden in Mortlake, London. The overall setting suggests professional gardening or landscaping activities carried out by Gardening Mortlake, emphasizing garden maintenance, shrub pruning, and outdoor care within a serene, well-organized outdoor space.Example jobs and price ranges (indicative) — we list common jobs and how we usually price them in the Mortlake area so you can match the service to your property type:

- Small terraced front garden tidy (typical near Mortlake High Street): one man, 1–2 hours, usually charged as a small labour job plus a van load for waste — indicative total £60–£120 depending on green waste volume.

- Medium semi-detached rear garden clearance (riverside and suburban areas): multiple labour hours with a van for green waste; often 1–2 cubic yards of material — indicative £150–£350.

- Large detached property overhaul (Victorian villas or gardens near St. Martin’s Road): larger crews, several cubic yards of soil and old turf, or hard landscape materials — expect £400+ depending on cubic-yard totals and man and van trips.

We also handle communal and commercial green areas such as the small courtyards behind blocks of flats near Mortlake Station, and frontages along busy roads where parking and access affect the man and van cost area calculations. For tight terraced streets the labour element and carry distance can change costs more than volume alone.

To make comparisons easier, here are typical pricing components you will see on a quote:

  • Cubic-yard rate: specified per cubic yard for soil/compost — clear, scalable.
  • Van load rate: fixed price for a standard garden waste van load.
  • Man & van hourly: for small removals and transport-only work.
  • Disposal fees: clearly listed per tonne or per cubic yard depending on recycling or landfill costs.

We measure loads in practical terms — wheelbarrow equivalents, van loads, and cubic yards — so you can compare what a skip would cost versus a man and van service. Many Mortlake properties prefer man-and-van for smaller jobs: cheaper parking, quicker clearance, and less disruption on narrow streets.

Important factors that affect price: access (narrow alleys or long carries), parking restrictions on busy roads, time of year (green waste is heavier in winter), and the need for disposal permits. We list these clearly on every quote to avoid surprises.
