The green waste jobs Melbourne gardens throw up most

Every city has its own rhythm of green waste, set by the gardens people keep and the weather they grow in. In Melbourne, with a cool temperate climate with four seasons in a day and cold, wet winters and established gardens with deciduous trees, hedged period homes and plenty of leafy inner-suburb streets, a handful of jobs come up again and again.

Lawn clippings lead the list. Deciduous leaf fall drives a big autumn load, then spring growth brings the clippings and hedge trimmings, and fresh clippings are heavy and compact fast, so a pickup (from $70) after a big mow is one of the most common calls, especially where the green bin is already full.

Hedge and pruning removal is close behind, because the heavy deciduous canopy means autumn leaf removal is a job of its own, often more than the council green bin can take. The trimmings hold a lot of air and overflow a bin in a single cut, so a hand-loaded hedge and pruning load (from $80) is bread-and-butter work for a local operator.

Garden clearouts are the seasonal staple. Pre-sale tidy ups, rental exits and end-of-season resets all leave a mixed pile of weeds, cutbacks and old plant material, and a clearout (from $150) takes it in one go.

Branch and storm-timber removal turns up after prunings and cold fronts. Safe cut limbs and green branch piles that will not fit the green bin get loaded and taken to an organics facility, with anything near power lines left to the professionals.

Then there is the steady background load: the garden bag that fills between the bigger jobs.
