Sometimes the council bins just aren't enough. After a clear-out, a room refresh, or when things have simply piled up, you need someone to take the bags away. In Wareham, from Sandford, Stoborough and Holton Heath, we collect bags of general household waste from your doorstep or driveway — no judgement, no hassle. mix of older stone cottages and modern estates properties in the area mean some households generate more waste than the fortnightly collections can handle. Historic market town at the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck. Mix of retirees and commuters. Seasonal population boost from tourism. We sort and recycle what we can, and dispose of the rest responsibly at licensed facilities.

Dorset Council provides fortnightly bin collections, but there's a limit to what fits in your wheelie bin. Extra bags left beside the bin won't be collected. Their bulky waste service covers furniture but not bagged rubbish. If your bins are full and the next collection is a week away, TipRun fills the gap.

|---|---|---|
| Regular bins | Fortnightly collection (included in council tax) | On-demand from £61 |
| Extra bags | Not collected — side waste policy | Any number of bags |
| Wait time | Next scheduled bin day | Same-day available |
| Collection point | Kerbside on bin day | Doorstep or driveway |
| Mixed waste | Must be sorted by bin type | We sort for you |
You can take bagged rubbish to Wareham Recycling Centre (1.2 miles from Wareham), but you'll need to sort it into the right skips — general waste, recycling, wood, metal. It's free for household waste but Dorset address proof required. Loading your car with bin bags isn't ideal, and the smell lingers. A TipRun collection saves you the trip and the clean-up.
