We offer practical outdoor tidy-up options to refresh overgrown or cluttered areas. Whether you need focused help or broader front and backyard-cleaning services, we tailor solutions to suit your property.
Lawn Mowing & Edging
Lawn Mowing & Edging is commonly included in section resets to give your grass a crisp, even finish. Our lawn experts trim the borders neatly and mow the lawn to a tidy height, so your outdoor areas look refreshed and well-presented.
This service suits properties that need a reset after periods of growth or general neglect, especially when lawns have become uneven or untidy. It helps tie the rest of your tidy-up together, leaving your turf ready for family and guests.
Garden Maintenance
Garden Maintenance restores structure to garden beds and controls small plants during a tidy-up. Our gardeners handle weed removal, bed tidy-ups, rose and hydrangea pruning, and selective weed spraying where needed.
This option works well when overgrowth has crept into borders or planting areas during long periods without upkeep. It brings structure and clarity back to your gardens, helping the rest of your tidy-up feel complete.
Hedge Trimming
Hedge Trimming helps bring wide or uneven hedges back into shape as part of a broader clean-up. Our team shapes the tops and tidies the sides so surrounding areas like paths and driveways feel more open.
This service is helpful when hedges have begun to encroach on walkways or overshadow garden beds. It gives your property a clearer outline and supports a tidy, well-organised finish to the rest of your clean-up.
Tree Removal
Tree Removal (Small to Medium) is sometimes required when shrubs or small trees have outgrown their space. We remove growth up to about 4 metres high, with trunks up to 250 mm thick, opening up the surrounding area.
This service suits properties needing unwanted trees removed without specialist height or rigging work. It creates more light and usable space, complementing your clean-up with a clearer, better-balanced layout.
Water Blasting
Water Blasting complements vegetation clearing when hard surfaces need a proper refresh. Our team uses controlled pressure washing to lift dirt and growth so paths and driveways look cleaner and brighter.
This service helps when outdoor areas have become slippery or stained over time and need a thorough clean. It tidies high-use surfaces and gives your overall clean-up a more complete, polished result that lasts longer.
Gutter Cleaning
Gutter Cleaning (One-Storey) supports exterior resets when leaves and debris have accumulated in gutters. We clear single-storey guttering safely from the ground so rainwater can flow properly around your home.
This service is useful when blockages begin to spill onto paths or garden areas, causing unnecessary mess. It supports your overall clean-up by preventing pooling water and keeping your outdoor spaces tidier for longer.
Rubbish Removal
Rubbish Removal ensures unwanted items and debris are properly cleared from outdoor areas. We take general waste, green waste, household items, old whiteware, and construction debris.
This service works well when clutter has started to accumulate during other tidy-up tasks and has created an unnecessary mess. It finishes the job properly by removing leftover materials so your outdoor areas feel open again.

Get clarity on how our yard and section clean-up services are performed, including pricing, timing, waste removal, and compliance considerations. The information below helps you understand what’s involved, confirm WINZ quote options, and plan a tidy-up that meets council expectations.
How much do yard and section clean-up services cost in Dunedin City?
FILL OUT OUR FORM!Section clean-up costs typically range from $300 to $1,200+ before GST, depending on the level of overgrowth, waste volume, and overall scope of work required.
All quotes are tailored to your property and confirmed after a brief site assessment. For a detailed breakdown, see our guide to section clearing prices in Dunedin.
What happens to the green waste and other debris you remove?
FILL OUT OUR FORM!All material is separated, so organic matter, soil, and plant trimmings are placed into appropriate recycling or disposal streams. Items like small timber pieces or mixed rubbish are kept separate to ensure nothing ends up in the wrong place.
Everything is taken to council-approved facilities for proper processing, leaving your section clear and mess-free for you to handle. This helps maintain tidy outdoor areas and supports responsible disposal practices across Dunedin.
When is the best time of year to book a tidy-up?
FILL OUT OUR FORM!Rapid growth typically starts in spring and early summer, and October through December is often the best window for getting ahead of it. These months give you a chance to tackle the first flush of new growth before the hotter days of mid-December, January, and February accelerate things further.
A tidy-up in this period makes the rest of the season easier to manage, especially if your section collects green waste quickly. If you prefer, our gardeners can return during the warmer months to provide ongoing attention and keep everything under control.
Do you provide WINZ quotes for full yard and section work?
FILL OUT OUR FORM!Yes! We can issue written quotes suitable for Work and Income, including jobs that involve complete yard or section tidy-ups. This gives you a clear breakdown to submit with your application.
If your quote is approved, simply let us know, and we’ll book your clean-up at a time that suits you. The process is simple, and we’re happy to clarify any details you may need for your WINZ request.
Can a clean-up help if my property has received a notice or warning?
FILL OUT OUR FORM!If your property has been flagged for excessive growth or visible clutter, a thorough tidy can quickly restore it to an acceptable standard. We focus on the areas most likely to attract attention and work through them in an organised, practical way.
For more information on local vegetation standards, overgrowth responsibilities, and council requirements, see our guide to section clearing regulations in Dunedin City.
Debris is removed, and problem areas are addressed so the section looks well cared for again. If you need urgent support, call 03 242 3172 or use our CONTACT FORM, and we can prioritise your clean-up to help prevent further council follow-up.
