A faster, more convenient alternative to traditional skip hire
Grab hire uses a specialist lorry equipped with a hydraulic grab arm to collect and remove waste quickly and efficiently. The grab lorry parks on the road or driveway while the mechanical arm reaches over fences, walls, or gates to collect waste from your property.
This makes grab hire the perfect solution when you can't accommodate a skip on your property, need rapid waste removal, or want to avoid the hassle and cost of skip permits.
