Covering Glenburn, Paisley West End and Ralston, and every Paisley postcode. One-off and repeat garden waste collection across Paisley. We take the grass, hedge trimmings, leaves, prunings and branches the brown bin cannot hold, loaded by us from wherever you have piled it, and send it for composting rather than landfill.
This is the service for the load that is too big for the brown bin and too messy for the car: the September hedge cut, the October leaf fall, the spring tidy that filled fifteen bags. We collect from Paisley gardens the same or next day, and you pay for the space the waste takes in the van, not for a year-long permit you will not fill.
A 240-litre brown bin collected fortnightly is built for maintenance, not for projects. One leylandii hedge reduction is five to ten bins. A mature tree's autumn leaf fall is more. And in Paisley, as in most of Scotland, the council brown bin now needs a paid annual permit, with no pro-rata rate if you only need it for one big job.
The alternative most people try is bagging it and driving to the recycling centre. Garden waste is bulky and light, so a car boot takes very little of it, the bags split, and several sites will not admit a van at all without a booking. It is a slow, dirty afternoon for a job that takes us twenty minutes.
Cut a forty-foot leylandii hedge back and had a mountain of it on the lawn. They came the next morning, loaded the lot in half an hour and the garden was clean. Far easier than a dozen trips to the tip and cheaper than I expected.
Hedges, pruning, the autumn leaf fall — the one-off load that swamps the bin.
Green waste collected from the client's kerb so your van stays on the job.
Overgrown gardens between tenancies cleared and the waste gone the same day.
Flats and tenement back courts in Paisley with no council garden waste service.
Fallen branches and blown-down fencing cleared after a named storm.
A monthly pick-up through the growing season for gardens that produce a lot.
One picture of the pile is enough. Tell us if it is bagged or loose and where it sits in the garden.
We quote by van space, from a minimum load up to a full van, before we set off.
Garden waste is quick to load. Most Paisley collections are done within 24 hours.
Rear garden, side path or front kerb — we carry and load. You do not need to move it.

Gardens in Paisley come with the houses, and the houses vary a lot. Paisley is Scotland's largest town and reads like a smaller Glasgow: sandstone tenements around the town centre and the West End, mill-workers' terraces, inter-war bungalows at Ralston, post-war schemes at Ferguslie Park and Foxbar, and new estates at Dykebar.
The parts of Paisley we know best are Castlehead, sandstone villas and tenements near the Abbey with cellars; Gallowhill, council housing and four-in-a-block flats near the airport; Ferguslie Park, housing-association voids and landlord turnovers; Glenburn, semis and bungalows at the foot of the Gleniffer Braes.
Renfrewshire's Underwood Road recycling centre is minutes from the town centre and takes household loads; Linwood's Linclive site is the alternative. Both are drive-in and self-unload. Renfrewshire Council's bulky uplift is chargeable and booked online, with a wait at busy times. Timber, soil and turf are the loads the brown bin and the car cannot take, and we can. Our Renfrewshire Council Bulky Uplift 2026 — Paisley, Renfrew, Johnstone has the detail.
What to tell us when you book: Tenement closes around Causeyside Street and the West End; controlled parking in the centre. Paisley tenement flat clearances are a weekly job for us.
Garden waste collection in Paisley starts at £30 for a minimum load of up to about eight bags. A quarter van of 15 to 20 bags is £60 to £75, a half van £110 to £140, and a full van of green waste, brash and timber £200 to £260. Send a photo on WhatsApp and we will fix the price before we come out.
For a one-off job, usually yes. A permit in Renfrewshire Council's area is an annual charge whether you fill the bin or not, and a big hedge cut will not fit in it anyway. For fortnightly grass through the summer the permit is good value; for the September and October clear-out a single collection is cheaper and faster.
No. Bagged waste loads faster, which keeps the price down, but we will load a loose pile of branches or leaves from the lawn. Tell us which when you send the photo so we allow the right time.
Yes, but they are priced by weight rather than volume because a van reaches its legal limit long before it looks full. Keep soil and rubble separate from the green waste and we will collect both on the same visit.
Green waste goes to a licensed composting facility, where it becomes soil improver. Timber, fence panels and treated wood go to a wood recycler. Very little of a garden collection goes to landfill. We are SEPA registered under licence WCR/R/3011855.
Yes. Several Paisley customers book a monthly pick-up from April to October. It is priced per collection with no contract, so you can pause it in a dry month.
Tenement closes around Causeyside Street and the West End; controlled parking in the centre. Tell us the floor, the parking and anything unusual when you send the photo and we send the right crew.

Each type carries differently, which is why we ask for a photo before we price.
