Grab Hire Service FAQs
Grab hire is often faster and more convenient, as the grab lorry can load and remove waste quickly without requiring a skip permit. Skip hire may be better suited for smaller or ongoing projects where waste accumulates over time.
Grab lorries can collect various waste types, including soil, concrete, hardcore, green waste, construction waste, and general household or garden waste. However, they typically cannot take hazardous materials like asbestos.
Grab hire is a waste removal service that uses a large lorry with a hydraulic arm (grabber) to load and transport waste from your site. It’s ideal for removing large amounts of heavy or bulky waste quickly.
A standard grab lorry can carry between 8 to 16 tonnes of waste, depending on the size of the vehicle. This is generally equivalent to the contents of several skips.

Grab hire is usually quick, with most collections completed within 20 to 30 minutes. The actual time depends on the amount and type of waste being removed and the accessibility of the waste area.
The grab lorry arrives on-site, and the hydraulic arm ‘grabs’ the waste directly from a designated area, such as a driveway or garden, and loads it into the lorry for transport to a licensed disposal facility.
No, you typically don’t need a permit as long as the grab lorry can access the waste from your property. However, if the vehicle needs to park on public roads, parking arrangements may need to be discussed.
