Tip runs in Weymouth: what we take
How it works round here.
Weymouth, Dorset • Tip Runs
Weymouth's own recycling centre sits barely half a mile from the town centre, yet loading, sorting and queuing to tip a van-load still eats up a Saturday you'd rather not lose.
Tip Runs takes that job off your hands: a driver arrives to load whatever needs clearing from your home or garden, whether that's old furniture, garden waste, DIY and renovation debris, or a stack of boxes and bags, then carries it off for disposal at a licensed recycling centre. You get a waste transfer note for your records and a fixed price agreed before anything is loaded, so there's no guessing at the end of the job.
The price depends on how much you're clearing and where it's going. A single item collected and tipped within Weymouth is fixed at £55, a half van load £139, and a full van £249. If your waste needs taking further afield, say to Dorchester, around 5.4 miles away, the same three sizes come to £55, £139 and £249. Whether it's a single old wardrobe from a DT4 flat or a full van's worth of renovation waste from a DT3 garden, the price is settled upfront and the site handling it all holds the proper licence. Book your Tip Run and let someone else deal with the loading, the driving and the queue at the gate.

Weymouth Household Recycling Centre, 0.6 miles from the town centre. Check the council’s page for opening hours and van rules before you go.
How much does a tip run cost in Weymouth?+
You get a fixed price before you book. It's worked out from the van size your items need, the space they take and the miles from pick-up to drop-off. The prices on this page are real examples for trips from Weymouth, with today's rates.
Who carries the waste?+
Only registered partners carry rubbish. You get a waste transfer note.
Is there anything you can’t take?+
Hazardous waste such as asbestos, gas bottles and chemicals can’t go. The booking flow tells you as you add items.

A single item is £55 to £85 by size, a move £69 to £349 by load, a tip run from £70 and a house clearance from £599. The first 10 miles of a move are included, then £1.80 a mile. Every price is fixed and shown before you book.
Can I get a van and driver today in Weymouth?+
Yes, if you book by 3pm and a driver is free: the earliest arrival is the hour after next. After 3pm, the earliest is 1pm tomorrow. The price is the same any day.
Will two people come?+
When the job needs them (a sofa, a wardrobe, a fridge, or a medium load and up) two people come, and that's already in the price. We decide it from what you're moving; there's nothing to choose or pay extra for.
How far will you go from Weymouth?+
Anywhere in England. A move includes the first 10 miles, then £1.80 a mile, shown in the price before you pay; over 150 miles we give you a quote instead. Tip runs have no distance charge.
Is the price fixed?+
Yes. You see the whole price before you book and that's what you pay: no hourly rate, and nothing added on the day for stairs, waiting or a heavy sofa, unless what you're moving changes.
