Are you decluttering, moving out, or starting afresh? If you’re unsure how to tackle the entire process without overspending, the first question that comes to mind is, “Where do I even start?” You can lift the burden off your shoulders by hiring house and garden removal services. Luckily, the expert removalists from Emmanuel Transport can help transform your house and garden outdoor space in no time.
Why Hire House and Garden Removal Services?
If you can spare some money, you save yourself a ton of strain and stress coordinating a house and garden removal. What might seem like saving money could compound if you factor in items like equipment, licenses, and rental skips that you will have to bear at full cost. Not to mention the labor for packing, loading, and unloading is very strenuous. Here’s why people opt for expert moving services from Emmanuel Transport:
Expertise
The diverse skills in house and garden removal services ensure that each task is handled simultaneously by the respective specialist. Moving a garden needs careful planning and requires special tools to get the job done. Garden removalists will carefully handle the shrubs, plants, and other garden accessories.
The practicality of the move
As part of the move, expert house and garden removers can help with packing, loading, transportation, unloading, and unpacking. While the services they offer are not impossible for you to do if you have the time, means, and stamina for it, there are some nuances that it only takes a professional to know. For instance, moving experts know which packing methods keep the items securely packed and reduce the chances of damage when in transit. Fragile artwork, bulky furniture, or pianos are prone to damage when not secured well during loading, transportation, and unloading.
Peace of mind
If you’ve lived in one place for many years, it’s only when you plan to move that you realize how many unnecessary items you’ve hoarded. You can start selling the items you consider junk on Gumtree or Facebook at yard sale prices. Anything valuable will be picked up by someone else, while items rejected are junk.
Flexibility
Adaptability is another aspect of house and garden removals. A one-size-fits-all approach might not apply to every moving case. To save on costs, some people might decide to do some of the work themselves, especially the packing and unpacking processes. That way, expert movers will instead focus on loading, transportation, and unloading to the new destination. It does not matter whether you are moving right down the street or across the country, house and garden removal services can tailor their solutions to meet unique needs.

What is the cost of hiring house and garden removal?
When you hire a house and garden removal service, they will assess your relocation needs. After completing their inquiry, which may include a site visit, you receive a quotation. It will point out the scope of work and how it adds up. It is important that the contract also clarifies in writing that the amount is fixed and there will be no hidden fees or additional costs that arise on the moving day. Here is a breakdown:
Classification and amount of waste
- Household waste—small-scale removal of daily clutter includes old furniture and broken appliances. It costs anywhere from $50 to $300.
- Furniture and bulky items—heavy oversized items include wardrobes, sofas, and kitchen appliances cost anywhere from $70 to $150 inclusive of the labor and transport costs.
- Garden waste removal—mostly involves grass clippings, clearing branches, and discarding old furniture—and ranges between $100 to $400 depending on the volume of debris.
Service type and disposal technique
- Single Visit Collection vs. Full Cleanup—if the word involves a single pickup, it tends to be cheaper. However, a full house or garden clearance will ramp up costs significantly to anywhere from $300 to $1000 before disposal.
- Hiring skip bins—to rent a small skip bin costs anywhere from $200 to $300 while the larger ones are about $600. All are great for DIY removal but require labor from your end.
- Eco-friendly recycling services—some providers will charge an extra by 10-20% for the trouble of sorting and recycling the waste.
Location
- Rural vs. urban pricing—house and garden removal services in rural areas are much cheaper than those in the city.

Another reason is the cost of disposal is higher in urban areas, as the moving experts must meet the rules and regulations around disposal.
- Accessibility—items stored in places that are hard to reach like attics or basements might attract additional labor fees from the moving company.
Additional services
- Same-day services—some companies offer express or same-day removals if you are willing to part with an extra 20-50% fee.
