but getting it all in a yaris doesn't sound like a good idea and i think we'll need to save up our allowance of visits for the rest of the move stuff.
You can get a lot in the back of a Yaris with the seats down!
Do you have an allowed number of trips? My tip only limits rubble, anything else is fine.

actually I think I was confusing it with the tip near us in morden which was 3 or 4 visits a quarter I think.
maybe if I put a tarp down it will be ok. my gf only recently purchased it (used) after a council van wrote off her old car but it's pristine inside and I will be murdered if the interior is damaged (even though this is a joint enterprise).

get the keys to our new place this afternoon, first order of business is rip down every polystyrene ceiling tile and strip of coving in 7 rooms over next 4 days.
however I am not really sure what my best option is for disposing of all the waste. I'm probably going to just pile it all up in the back room until it's done but I'll be diving straight into the redecorating after that and it's going to be a massive pain in the arse if it's hanging around for too long. it feels like even trying to bag it up is going to be difficult given its bulk.
what's the best way to dispose of something like this? call a waste removal van and man type thing and chuck it straight in the back, hippo/anyjunk bag (so i can scatter it to the 4 winds and alienate our new neighbours while awaiting collection), I think our local tip accepts polystyrene but getting it all in a yaris doesn't sound like a good idea and i think we'll need to save up our allowance of visits for the rest of the move stuff.
also I'm expecting to need to put coving back up to minimise the amount of hassle needed to get each room to a paintable state again.
any suggestions for a source of decently priced coving that's going to be easy to just jam up with some adhesive and nails to hold it in place?
