More than one load? We'll send the lads back — no extra call-out fee.
A half load is our most popular option for room clear-outs and weekend declutters in Bournemouth. 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. Edwardian and Victorian semi-detached across Boscombe, Winton and Charminster 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. Mix of students near the university and retirees along the East Cliff and Southbourne. High turnover rental market in Boscombe and Winton. The half load is the sweet spot between single-item collections and a full van clear-out.

Council Options vs TipRun Half Load in Bournemouth
BCP Council's bulky waste service charges £37.50 for up to 3 items 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.
| Council | TipRun | |
|---|---|---|
| Price for 3 items | £37.50 for up to 3 items (per booking) | from £179 (half van) |
| Bags of rubbish | Not included | Mix in with furniture |
| Wait time | 2–3 weeks | Same-day available |
| Mix item types | Bulky items only | Anything goes |
| Loading | You — to the kerbside | We load everything |
Multiple Tip Runs vs One Half Load
To shift a half van's worth of stuff to Millhams Recycling Centre (3.2 miles from Bournemouth), you'd need 3-4 car trips. That's a full morning gone — loading, driving, unloading, sorting into the right skips, driving back, repeating. Van/trailer permit required (free, apply online). One TipRun half load collection takes about 30 minutes and costs less than the fuel and time for multiple tip trips.
Access & Parking in Bournemouth
Lots of flats above shops on Old Christchurch Road and in Boscombe. Many converted Victorian houses with narrow stairwells. Westbourne properties often have rear lane 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. Resident permit zones across BH1–BH3 and parts of Winton. Pay-and-display near the town centre. Most suburban streets have free on-street parking.
“Booked online at 9am, sofa was gone by lunch. Brilliant service.”

Frequently asked questions
How much fits in a half load in Bournemouth?
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.
Can I mix different types of waste?
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.
What if it's more than half a van?
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.
How quickly can you do a half load in Bournemouth?
Same-day slots are often available in Bournemouth. Book before noon for the best chance. We're based in Poole, 12 min from Bournemouth.
Is a half load cheaper than skip hire?
Usually yes. A mini skip in Bournemouth 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.
