Tip runs in Sherborne: what we take
How it works round here.
Sherborne, Dorset • Tip Runs
Sherborne's own railway station sits barely half a mile from the town centre, and if you're clearing a house near it, or out towards Thornford, a tip run through Van & Driver takes the weight off without you needing a trailer or a roof rack.
We arrange a fixed-price van and driver to collect old furniture, garden waste, DIY rubble or simply boxes and bags, loading straight from your home or garden and carrying it on to a licensed disposal site, with a waste transfer note included as proof it's been dealt with properly. It suits anyone in DT9 clearing out before a move, tackling a renovation, or just getting on top of things that have built up in the shed or garage.
Loads from Sherborne go to a licensed recycling centre, and the fixed price covers the journey so there are no surprises once the van is loaded. The same booking also covers runs out to nearby Yeovil, Wincanton or Somerton, each priced as a single item, a half-load or a full van, so you can match the size of the job to the cost before anything is arranged. It's a straightforward way to get waste out of the house and off your hands in one go.
