Tip runs in Wincanton: what we take
How it works round here.
Wincanton, Somerset • Tip Runs
Wincanton sits in the BA9 postcode area of Somerset, with Templecombe station just 3.6 miles off and Bruton a little further at 4.2 miles.
If your shed, garden or spare room has built up a pile of things you no longer want, a tip run through Van & Driver clears it in one go at a fixed price agreed before anyone arrives. The nearest recycling centre with a van booking rule is over at Shaftesbury, ten miles away on Warminster Road, so getting old furniture, garden waste, DIY rubble or bags and boxes there yourself can mean queuing for a slot or juggling a car that's simply too small for the job. Book a Tip Run instead and someone will come to your home, load everything up, and take it on to a licensed disposal site, handing you a waste transfer note so there's a proper record of where it's gone. It covers the sort of clearout jobs that don't fit in a wheelie bin: broken wardrobes, cut-back hedges, leftover tiles and plasterboard from a renovation, or just the boxes left over after a house move. Whether you're in the centre of Wincanton or need a trip out towards Gillingham or Sherborne, the price is fixed from the start, so there's nothing to work out on the day beyond deciding what's going.

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.

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.
People ask

Asbestos, gas bottles, chemicals and solvents, clinical waste, engine oil and petrol, and fireworks. The booking flags anything like that as you add it.
