Tip runs in Wells: what we take
How it works round here.
Wells, Somerset • Tip Runs
Across the BA5 postcode district, Wells households generate the kind of clear-out clutter that never quite fits in the car boot: old furniture, garden cuttings, and the leftovers from a DIY weekend.
A tip run through Van & Driver takes that problem off your hands. You book a van with a driver at a fixed price, and the job covers loading from your home or garden, disposal at a licensed recycling centre, and a waste transfer note so you have proof the load was dealt with properly, whether that's a single armchair or a full load of boxes and bags.
Wells sits within easy reach of Shepton Mallet and Glastonbury, both around five miles from the city centre, and prices are set for trips within Wells itself as well as out to these neighbouring towns, so you know the cost before the van arrives. Further afield, recycling centres near Cheddar and Backwell give a sense of how far waste sometimes has to travel, but with Tip Runs that's handled as part of the service rather than something you need to plan yourself. Whether you're clearing a garden before summer, finishing a renovation, or just getting rid of things that have been sitting in the shed too long, you can book a Tip Run in Wells now, with the loading, the disposal and the paperwork all included in one fixed price.
