Gardeners Brixton — Pricing & Quotes

Welcome to our clear, reliable pricing page for Gardeners Brixton. This page sets out our transparent pricing model so you know exactly what to expect from a local gardening company. Whether you're searching for gardening company prices area comparisons or looking up the typical man and van cost area when clearing green waste, we explain load-based and cubic-yard charging, hourly gardener rates, typical job examples and our free quote policy.

We pride ourselves on being upfront: no hidden fees, no surprise uplift on busy days. Our charges are built from three simple components — labour, waste removal (load-based or cubic-yard rates) and travel/parking where necessary. All routine visits come with a clear breakdown so you can see each cost line: staff time, waste volume and any special equipment.

Our model is designed for homes and businesses across Brixton, from Victorian terraces near Brixton Market to modern flats on Acre Lane and busy shop-front gardens. Use the examples below to match typical jobs to your property style and get a realistic idea of gardener rates in the Brixton area.

How our rates work — hourly, per-load and per-cubic-yard

We generally price one of three ways, depending on the job: hourly gardener rates for maintenance, load-based (per pickup) for small clearances, and cubic-yard rates for larger disposals. Here are typical frameworks we use:

• Hourly gardening rates: A gardener or team is charged per hour. Typical range: £30–£45 per hour for a single gardener, and £55–£90 per hour for a two-person team. These are common for recurring maintenance or small landscaping work.
• Load-based (man & van) pricing: Small vans or man-and-van trips are ideal for front garden tidy-ups or single-item removals — we charge by standard loads: from small van loads £70–£110 depending on access and parking.
• Cubic-yard rates: For larger green waste volumes we use cubic-yard pricing to keep costs fair: roughly £45–£70 per cubic yard depending on disposal fees and whether compostable waste is segregated.

We also publish minimum charges: routine visits often carry a 1-hour minimum for single gardeners and a nominal call-out/minimum fee for man-and-van jobs. When dealing with restricted-access properties (above shops, gated courtyards) or congested streets like Coldharbour Lane, an access surcharge may apply to reflect actual time and labour spent.

Clear examples: match your property and job to likely costs

Example pricing helps illustrate how our approach works across Brixton property types and busy locations:

- Small front-terrace tidy (e.g., a Wrought-iron front yard near Brixton Road): 1 gardener for 1–1.5 hours to sweep, prune pots and remove green waste by man-and-van. Typical cost: £60–£120 depending on waste volume and parking. This suits homeowners wanting a quick refresh before market days.

- Victorian terrace back garden (medium overgrowth): Two gardeners for 3–5 hours to cut back shrubs, tidy borders and remove arisings. Waste often charged by cubic-yard — estimate 3–6 cubic yards, giving a total job price of roughly £300–£650. Busy alleyways and narrow access on residential streets can push time up slightly.

- Communal or larger townhouse gardens (e.g., a block of flats off Acre Lane): Regular maintenance contracts are quoted monthly and typically use hourly gardener rates with periodic load-based clearances. A typical 2-person monthly maintenance visit for a medium communal plot can be £120–£240 per visit, plus occasional cubic-yard clearances for seasonal leaf fall.

- One-off large clearances (e.g., long-neglected garden behind a shop-front flat): These are prime candidates for cubic-yard pricing. A clearance of 10+ cubic yards will typically be priced using an agreed per-cubic-yard rate plus labour — approximate total £450–£1,200 depending on access, recycling of green waste and whether hazardous items are found.

For small DIY-style removals, the man and van cost in the Brixton area is often cheaper than hiring a skip when access is tight. A man-and-van load avoids skip permits on busy streets and is usually faster to arrange.

If you prefer, we can present price options (budget, standard, and comprehensive) so you can choose how intensive the work is. We also explain whether a job is better priced hourly, by man-and-van load or by cubic-yard so you know you’re getting the most economical approach.

If you are comparing gardening company prices area or checking the man and van cost area for clearance work, consider access, waste type and whether repeated visits are needed. These three factors are the main drivers of cost and we always show them in your estimate.
