Call-out fee: £49 — covers our team travelling to you. Item prices are on top.
Getting rid of an old sofa in Blandford shouldn't mean wrestling it down the stairs and hiring a van. With Georgian townhouses and modern estates common across the area — from Blandford Forum, Blandford St Mary and Bryanston — narrow hallways and tight doorways are par for the course. We collect sofas of any size from your ground floor, load them onto our van, and take them away. Historic Georgian market town. Mix of retirees and families. The military presence at Blandford Camp adds a transient population element. That means we see everything from rental turnovers to family home upgrades. Reusable sofas go to local charities. Everything else is recycled responsibly — Blandford is at the outer edge of TipRun’s service area. The military camp generates periodic bulk clearance demand as personnel rotate.
While the van's there: add a mattress (£40), bed frame (£35), or bags of rubbish (£12/bag)

Your sofa + call-out = £114 total. A half load is £179 — just £65 more to clear the whole room.
Dorset Council offers a bulky waste collection at £30 for 1 item, £10 per additional item (max 6), but you'll wait up to 4 weeks. Online booking only. Items must be at the property boundary. Maximum 6 items per booking. With TipRun, we collect same-day or next-day from inside your home — not just the kerbside.

Blandford Recycling Centre is 1.5 miles from central Blandford. You can take a sofa there, but you'll need a van or trailer — and that means applying for a free permit at least 5 working days in advance. Saturday mornings are the busiest time, so expect queues. Dorset address proof required. Most people find it easier to book a TipRun collection — we pick up from your door and save you the trip.
Town centre has narrow historic streets. Newer estates on the edge have good access. Some rural properties around Pimperne have single-track lanes. For sofa removal specifically, please make sure we can get the sofa through your front door or have it outside ready. If the sofa came in through the door, it'll come out the same way. Town centre has pay-and-display. Residential areas have driveways or free on-street parking. Bryanston has private estate roads.
“They drove out to Blandford for a single fridge. No extra charge for the distance.”
