Can anyone recommend cheapest solution to remove large amount of Green Waste/Lincolnshire area !please. !

I don't have a car suitable to carry large loads or trailer.

Maybe could reccomend a really cheap competative skip hire?

Or a service that takes green waste to recycle for composting ect.

Help very much appreciated.

    Could you self compost or garden shredder that could mulch it down? Its what I did after chopping down a few conifer \ leylandi trees - the walkers track at the back of my house benefitted for some of it being spreaded back in there...

    if you can get it to an accessible road, a grab hire lorry would be the cheapest way to rid of it.

    Have you tried your local Council to see what they could offer.

    I'd also recommend contacting local clearance people. I used them recently when I couldn't face cutting up and taking some old decking and concrete to the local tip. I also got them to take away 2 one tonne bags of garden waste which they did for £25. Bill was £100 all in which is much cheaper than a skip. I'll use them again for large waste as it's far easier than trying to get it all in a Fiesta!
