Tip runs in Wellington: what we take
How it works round here.
Wellington, Somerset • Tip Runs
Wellington's Recycling Centre at Poole Brickworks keeps odd hours, shut on Mondays and Tuesdays and open only till 4pm at weekends, which makes fitting in a tip run harder than it should be when you're clearing a house in TA21 or further out towards Taunton.
Van & Driver is setting up to cover Tip Runs in Wellington, taking away old furniture, garden waste, DIY and renovation rubble, and the boxes and bags left over from a clear-out, so you won't need to plan your day around the centre's opening hours or make the trip yourself. Once the service is live here, a fixed price will cover loading from your home or garden, disposal at a licensed recycling centre, and a proper waste transfer note, whether the job is a single armchair or a full van load. We're not able to take bookings in Wellington yet, but the plan is to have partner drivers ready to work locally, covering runs within the town as well as onward trips to Taunton and other nearby places. If you're waiting on a clear-out, keep an eye on this page, as we'll confirm as soon as Tip Runs go live for Wellington and the wider TA21 area.
