How to Deal with an Overgrown Garden
If a property is left empty for a couple of years, the garden can reach jungle proportions, depending on the flora and fauna; sooner or later, this monstrous natural beast must be tamed and if you have recently inherited an old property with an overgrown garden, you have come to the right place.
Survey the ground
Prior to anything, you need to take a close look at what you have in the space; are there mature trees? Large objects like old cars, bikes and other stuff might be present, so make a list of what you are going to encounter. Large trees might be best to remain; local government are unlikely to permit large tree removal in an urban setting, so try to factor them into your new garden.
Green waste removal
Fortunately, there is affordable green waste disposal on the Gold Coast and they can take as much waste as you can generate! The waste is recycled and the reputable company runs an eco-friendly operation, an example to all.

Plan the new garden
Once the area is cleared, you can plan each mini project; a timber deck would be the first, which is connected to the rear of the property. A lawn could occupy 30% of the area, with flower borders either side. You could talk to a local landscape gardener about potential features, using the natural terrain to create a stunning space.
Building garden features
If you are fit and healthy and have access to tools, there are great ‘how to videos’ on YouTube that demonstrate step by step, various projects. One thing is for sure, you will save money if you go down the DIY route, plus it is very rewarding to create an attractive garden. Gardening is very satisfying and for many, it is a soothing pastime.
Land clearing contractors
If the area is huge and beyond your reach, hire a land clearance contractor who has the resources and know-how to clear anything. They typically clear land for major commercial developments such as shopping malls and office buildings, so they have the resources to handle your project.
You should regard this project as a challenge and with some careful thought, your new garden is on the horizon.
