Tip runs in Dorking: what we take
How it works round here.
Dorking, Surrey • Tip Runs
Dorking's split postcodes, RH4 and RH5, stretch from the town centre out towards the North Downs, and if you're clearing a house or garden anywhere across that patch, getting old furniture, garden waste or renovation rubble to a proper disposal site can eat up a whole day.
Van & Driver is bringing its Tip Runs service to Dorking soon, covering everything from a single armchair to a full van load of boxes, bags and DIY debris. The idea is simple: a fixed price covers loading from your home or garden, transport to a licensed disposal site such as the Dorking Community Recycling Centre on Ranmore Road, and a proper waste transfer note for your records, so there's no guesswork about where your rubbish ends up. We know the local geography, from the recycling centre just off Ranmore Road to the routes out towards Leatherhead and Great Bookham and Fetcham, and we're setting fixed prices for those trips as well as jobs that stay within Dorking itself. At the moment there isn't a partner driver signed up to cover the town, so this page can't yet take a booking, but once cover is arranged here you'll be able to get a tip run sorted without renting a van, finding a mate with a trailer, or making three separate trips to the tip yourself.
