Several solutions exist.
Cmonjardiner.com lists the best ways to get rid of waste here based on the volume to be removed.
“Green” bagging and composting:
These two methods are suitable for small volumes and small waste. Indeed this includes the waste of mowing, weeding, or de-flowering. As soon as the branches have large sections or lengths that must be cut, the bagging becomes very long. There is a lot of loss of space in the bag and the time spent filling the bags quickly becomes very important. Better to choose another method.
Likewise, composting is suitable for leaves, faded flowers, mowing waste. You will quickly be limited by the size of the composter. Unless you live in the countryside and have all the space you want. You can nevertheless devote the composter to waste outside mowing and take advantage of cutting the lawn to mulch at the foot of hedges and shrub beds. Be careful, however, not to overload otherwise, the decomposition will be too slow and the earth will have difficulty breathing.
Most municipalities offer the green bag service free of charge. As well as the removal of bags during the season. Check with your town hall. You often find the days and times of collection on the collection schedule for household waste, glasses, paper, etc.
You can also take the bags yourself to the recycling center. Find out about the days and hours of operation for individuals. Often the recycling centers reserve beaches for professionals to which you do not have access. Most of the time, you will need a personal card to be taken from City Hall and which limits your annual deposits.
Gardening service companies generally agree to bag waste for you and, if necessary, bring it to a recycling center. This service is chargeable; the time to evacuate green waste in addition to the working time spent at home. The deposit in the recycling center is re-invoiced at the actual rate. The average price is around 6$ for 100 Kg. A deposit slip can be provided to you to justify the deposited weight if you wish.
Evacuation of green waste by trailer or dump truck
Most gardening providers are equipped with small trailers or dump trucks. This method is particularly suitable for hedge trimming, cutting shrubs where the branches can be important, cleaning fruit trees or small trees, cutting back (hedges, prunus, hazelnut trees, etc.), removing dead plants ( old cedar….) or stumps…
When the volumes are important, it is necessary to cross-check the waste. You can then fit them into a small bag.
Gardeners generally use “ big bags “ which allow them to collect waste as they are cut and then load their trailer more quickly.
Most will then charge you an evacuation time in addition to the time spent working in your garden and a weight corresponding to the actual deposit made. Some will estimate the volume and time when quoting and offer you a full package.
Grinding
Another solution for branches is also crushing which then makes it possible to carry out, for example, mulching of the soil.
Mulching is increasingly used to cover the soil at the foot of crops, flower beds, roses, flowers, hedges, raspberries … While protecting against the cold and weeds, mulching fertilizes over the long term.
Gardeners can dispose of the excess shredding in a big bag or trailer.
