Clearing my front garden - advice requested

[PoisonIvy]

I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this; moderators, please feel move to the correct section.

Newbie gardener/DIYer here.

I live in a first floor flat of a Victorian conversion, with a small front garden that's overgrown with weeds. I want to dig out the flower(weed) bed and replace with gravel, take down the rotting picket fence on the half-wall, repaint, and generally tidy up.

My question is, what do you do with all of the rubbish and dug up topsoil? Do you pile it all on a tarpaulin and get Southwark Council round to haul it away? (I can't imagine my neighbours would take too kindly to a pile of dirt left on the pavement for days.) Buy one of those hippo bags from b&q? What do local car-less DIYers do? Even if you have a car, where do you dispose of green waste and wood? We're mid-terrace and don't have access to the back garden, so there's nowhere to put it all while we wait for it to be hauled away.

Any tips appreciated.

Bag it in builders bags, store temporarily on road, fix the yard, put bags back on yard, find someone(Council/private) to dispose of bags.

Green waste can go in brown wheelie bins.

Ask a neighbour if you've not got a brown bin.

if you see someone nearby that has a skip ask if you can put some stuff in - in return for a bottle of wine etc

Thank you. There's plenty of advice online on how to 'transform your tiny urban garden' but precious little about what to do with the waste, particularly if you don't have transport.
