Bridgwater at a glance
Bridgwater sits in the TA6 postcode district, with the town centre's shops around The Avenue and the Eastover Indoor Shopping Centre only a few minutes apart, and the railway station just off Wellington Road. It's the kind of place where a van with a driver comes in handy for all sorts of moves, whether that's a run across town or further out towards Highbridge, Burnham-on-Sea or Taunton. Van & Driver is coming soon to Bridgwater, bringing together a marketplace for van with driver and man and van services, covering everything from house removals and furniture delivery to tip runs, next-day van hire, storage moves, student removals, marketplace deliveries and commercial courier work. Once live, the aim is to make it simple to sort a move without the hassle of ringing round for quotes, with a fixed price agreed upfront for the move in hand rather than being left guessing. Bridgwater's mix of local storage options, including sites on East Quay and Crossways Road, plus its position near Taunton and the Somerset Levels towns, means plenty of moves start or finish here, and the service is being built with those journeys in mind. For now, this page sets out what's planned for the town, so residents and local movers know what to expect when Van & Driver switches on and bookings open for Bridgwater and its surrounding area.
Bridgwater had 47,846 people at the 2021 Census. Furniture and flat-pack from The Avenue and Eastover Indoor Shopping Centre is a common single-item run. The council's nearest recycling centre is Taunton Recycling Centre, 7.5 miles away; a tip run with us goes to a licensed recycling centre, with the disposal in the price.
