Tip runs in Amersham: what we take
How it works round here.
Amersham, Buckinghamshire • Tip Runs
Amersham's HP6 and HP7 postcodes sit either side of the old town.
That proximity makes tip runs a regular need here, whether it's garden waste from the clay-heavy plots around town, old furniture cleared from a house near the Broadway, or the leftover boards and rubble from a loft or kitchen job. Van & Driver is opening soon in Amersham, bringing a straightforward way to get this sort of waste moved without hiring a van yourself or making repeated trips to the tip. The Tip Runs service is built to cover the whole job: a driver loads directly from your home or garden, takes everything to a licensed disposal site, and provides a waste transfer note so there's proper paperwork for what's been cleared. It's suited to old furniture, garden waste, DIY and renovation debris, or simply boxes and bags that have built up and need to go. Once live, the service will run at a fixed price agreed before the job starts, so there's no need to work out load sizes or haggle on the day. For now, this page sets out what to expect when booking becomes available for Amersham and the surrounding villages, including Little Chalfont and Chesham nearby.

Will two people come?+
