Site Clearance FAQs

What is site clearance?
Site clearance involves removing debris, trees, vegetation, and structures from a site to prepare it for a new purpose, typically construction. Site clearance specialists use heavy machinery and certified operatives to ensure the area is safe, clean, and compliant with legal standards before development begins.
How much does site clearance cost UK?
Site clearance costs in the UK range from approximately £300 for a small domestic garden to over £6000 for larger site clearances of a few acres. Key factors affecting site clearance costs include site size, vegetation type and density, accessibility, waste disposal needs and the presence of dangerous materials, such as asbestos.
Do you need planning permission for site clearance in London?
Yes, you will likely need planning permission for a site clearance in London, as it's considered development under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. That said, it's vital you consult with your local planning authority to confirm if you need permission for your site clearance project before commencing any work.
