Can I include soil with hedge cuttings?
Declare the soil separately with an estimated quantity. It changes the weight and may not be accepted under the same arrangement as plant material.

Describe more than green waste
Say whether soil is bagged, loose or still inside planters. Photograph timber and hard landscaping separately from plant material. If dismantling a shed is part of the work, explain that before asking for a removal price.
Work out how material reaches the road
Mention side gates, steps and any route through the house. Avoid moving a pile into a shared passage without agreement. If access depends on a neighbour unlocking a gate, arrange that before confirming the collection.
Agree a price for the prepared materials
Describe cuttings and branches separately from soil, turf, paving and old timber. Ask whether the price includes carrying from the garden, loading, disposal and any applicable VAT. A waste collection does not automatically include pruning, digging or dismantling a shed; request those tasks explicitly if needed.
Confirm which materials can share a collection before combining piles. Identify concrete posts, treated timber and shed roofing rather than including them in a general green-waste estimate. Update the provider if the work produces more material after the quote.
