Got more than one load? We'll send the lads back for a second trip — no extra call-out fee. Two loads is often the smartest way to clear a whole house.
A half load is our most popular option for room clear-outs and weekend declutters in Weymouth. Half a transit van holds roughly a sofa plus a few bags plus a couple of smaller items — think one room's worth of stuff. Victorian terraces near the seafront and modern estates inland across Radipole, Wyke Regis and Preston often accumulate a room's worth of clutter that needs shifting. Mix and match anything — furniture, bags, appliances, garden waste. We load it all, you don't lift a finger. Seaside town with a tourist economy. Mix of retirees, families, and seasonal workers. High proportion of rental properties near the harbour. The half load is the sweet spot between single-item collections and a full van clear-out.
Need the whole van? Upgrade to a full load for just £150 more (£329 total)

Most customers upgrade: a full load is just £150 more and fills the entire van. Clear everything in one go.
Dorset Council's bulky waste service charges £30 for 1 item, £10 per additional item (max 6) and each item counts separately. A sofa, a bookcase, and a mattress? That's three separate items. With a TipRun half load, you fill half the van with whatever you want — one price, no item counting.

To shift a half van's worth of stuff to Dorchester Recycling Centre (7.5 miles from Weymouth), you'd need 3-4 car trips. That's a full morning gone — loading, driving, unloading, sorting into the right skips, driving back, repeating. Dorset address proof required. One TipRun half load collection takes about 30 minutes and costs less than the fuel and time for multiple tip trips.
Victorian terraces near the seafront have narrow stairways and limited front access. Modern estates in Chickerell and Littlemoor have good access. For half load collections, we'll need clear access to everything being collected. Have items gathered in one area where possible — front garden, driveway, garage, or one room. Seafront and town centre have pay-and-display and resident permits. Residential areas mostly free. Summer parking can be very limited.
From £179. Same-day collection available.
Half a transit van — roughly a sofa plus 5-6 bags plus a couple of small items. Think: one room's worth of stuff. If you're unsure, send us photos and we'll tell you if it's a half or full load.
Yes — that's the beauty of a half load. Furniture, bin bags, small appliances, garden waste, boxes. Mix anything in. We sort and recycle at the other end.
We'll tell you on site. You can upgrade to a full load (from £220) and just pay the difference. No nasty surprises — we agree the price before we start loading.
Same-day slots are often available in Weymouth. Book before noon for the best chance. We're based in Poole, 40 min from Weymouth.
Usually yes. A mini skip in Weymouth costs £200–350, sits on your drive for days, and you still load it yourself. A TipRun half load is from £179, we do the loading, and we're gone in 30 minutes.
