Covering Student quarter, St Andrews Old Town and The Scores, and every St Andrews postcode. Full garden clearances across St Andrews: overgrowth cut back, green waste, timber, sheds, fencing, decking and garden rubbish removed in one visit. The garden comes back; the waste goes to composting and recycling.
An overgrown St Andrews garden is a mix of jobs: cutting, digging, dismantling and carrying. The brown bin takes none of it in quantity and the tip takes it only a boot at a time. We bring a crew, the tools and the van, and clear the garden in a day.
A neglected garden produces far more waste than people expect. Cutting back a single overgrown hedge fills a van; adding the rotten shed, the fence panels, the old decking and years of accumulated pots and plastic can double it.
None of that fits the council's brown bin, which needs a paid permit in Fife Council's area and takes only loose green waste. A garden clearance crew cuts, dismantles, loads and takes the lot to composting and recycling in one visit.
The back garden had not been touched in about six years. Three of them turned up with strimmers and saws, cut it all back, took the shed down and had two van loads away by four o'clock. We have a garden again.

Gardens in St Andrews come with the houses, and the houses vary a lot. St Andrews is medieval closes and Georgian townhouses in the old town, Victorian villas along the Scores, student flats everywhere, and estates on the western edge.
The parts of St Andrews we know best are Student quarter, flats with a huge June and September turnover; St Andrews Old Town, closes and townhouses with cellars and no parking; The Scores, villas facing the sea; Lawhead, family estates with driveways.
Fife Council's St Andrews recycling centre serves the town. Fife Council's bulky uplift is chargeable. Timber, soil and turf are the loads the brown bin and the car cannot take, and we can. Our Fife Council Bulky Uplift 2026 — Glenrothes, Dunfermline, Kirkcaldy has the detail.
What to tell us when you book: Old-town closes and permit parking make St Andrews a carry job; timing around graduation matters. St Andrews student flats empty in a fortnight every June.

Yes. We bring the tools to cut hedges, brambles and overgrowth, and we take it all away. If you only need the waste removed after your own cutting, that is priced as a garden waste collection.
Yes. Sheds, greenhouses, fencing and decking are dismantled and the timber separated for recycling. Concrete bases can be broken out and removed as an extra.
We take both, priced by weight because a van reaches its legal limit long before it looks full. Keep soil and rubble separate from green waste if you can.
Green waste goes to licensed composting. Timber, metal and plastics are recycled. We are SEPA registered under licence WCR/R/3011855 and provide a Waste Transfer Note.
For most St Andrews gardens, yes. A skip needs a permit on the road, does not include the cutting or carrying, and garden waste is bulky, so it fills fast. We cut, carry and clear for one price.
Fife Council's bulky uplift is chargeable. We are the alternative when the wait is too long, the item list is too short, or you cannot get it to the kerb: we carry from inside and usually come the same day.
Usually the same day. St Andrews student flats empty in a fortnight every June. A booking before midday is normally collected that afternoon; otherwise next day, with a two-hour arrival window.
