Tip runs in Taunton: what we take
How it works round here.
Taunton, Somerset • Tip Runs
If you're clearing a house or garden near Taunton Recycling Centre, just over a mile out from the town centre, you'll know how quickly old furniture and garden waste can pile up faster than a single car boot can manage.
Van & Driver is getting ready to launch tip runs in Taunton, covering both the TA1 and TA2 postcode districts, with jobs stretching out towards Wellington and further afield as needed. The idea is straightforward: someone loads the old furniture, garden waste, DIY rubble or bags and boxes straight from your home or garden, drives it to a licensed disposal site, and hands over a waste transfer note so you've got proof it's been dealt with properly. It's all included in one fixed price, agreed before anything is loaded, so there's no need to hire a skip or wrestle a wardrobe into a car that was never built for it. Taunton households have plenty of reasons to need a tip run, whether it's post-renovation waste, a garden overhaul, or simply years of boxes finally being sorted through. We're not able to take bookings in Taunton just yet, but we're working on bringing this service to the town soon, so that clearing out a house or garden doesn't mean juggling van hire, licensed disposal sites and paperwork all on your own.
