How we do it

From jungle to garden. Usually in a day.

Garden cleanups are one of the most satisfying jobs we do. You start with something that looks overwhelming — knee-high weeds, overgrown shrubs, dead plants, leaves piled up everywhere — and by the end of the day it's a garden again. The transformation is dramatic, and it's one of the reasons Kai and the team genuinely enjoy this work.

We see a lot of common scenarios in Canberra. You've just moved into a rental or bought a house and the previous owners let the garden go. You've been away for a few months and things have gotten out of hand. Autumn has dumped a season's worth of leaves across the whole property. Or you've got an event coming up and the backyard needs to not look embarrassing. Whatever the situation, we can usually sort it in a single visit.

A typical garden cleanup includes mowing overgrown lawns, weeding garden beds, pruning overgrown shrubs, clearing dead plants and debris, raking leaves, and tidying edges and paths. All green waste is removed from the property — we don't leave piles for you to deal with. Every bit of the work is done with battery-powered equipment, so there's no petrol smell lingering in your freshly cleaned-up garden and your neighbours won't be complaining about the noise.

For bigger jobs, we bring the trailer and extra hands. For really neglected properties, we may recommend a staged approach — a big cleanup first to get things under control, then a follow-up visit to fine-tune once we can see what we're working with.

Everything to get your garden back under control.

We assess the garden and tailor the cleanup to what actually needs doing.

    Hand weeding and clearing to get beds back to bare soil and healthy plants.

  • Pruning overgrown shrubs

    Shrubs and plants cut back to manageable, healthy shapes.

  • Mowing overgrown lawns

    Even the worst lawns get mowed, edged and looking presentable.

  • Removing dead plants and debris

    Dead plants pulled, old mulch cleared, debris removed from every corner.

    Leaves collected, paths and paved areas blown clean.

  • All green waste removed

    We take everything away. Nothing left for your green bin or the kerb.

FAQs

Common questions about garden cleanups in Canberra.

How much does a garden cleanup cost in Canberra?

It depends on the size of the property and how overgrown it is. A standard cleanup for a neglected suburban garden typically takes half a day to a full day. Text Kai a few photos of your garden on 0414 058 552 and you'll get a clear, no-obligation quote — usually within the hour during business hours.

Can you handle a badly overgrown garden?

Yes. Overgrown gardens are actually one of our favourite jobs — the transformation is dramatic. We've cleared gardens that haven't been touched in years. We bring enough gear and hands to get the job done in a single visit where possible, and all green waste is removed from the property.

Do you take the green waste away?

Yes, always. All green waste is removed from your property as part of every garden cleanup. We dispose of it responsibly at approved Canberra facilities where it's composted rather than sent to landfill.

Can you do a cleanup before I sell or lease my property?

Absolutely. We do a lot of pre-sale and end-of-lease garden work. A tidy garden makes a real difference to first impressions at open inspections and can help tenants get their bond back. Check out our dedicated pre-sale and end-of-lease gardening service for more detail.
