Grab Hire in Great Yarmouth

Grab lorries can carry a large variety of heavy material which you can’t often put in a skip. They can carry earth and soil, hardcore and aggregates, concrete and bricks, green waste and general household waste.

If our driver can manoeuvre and position alongside and they can see the waste from the controls then they can load from over a fence or wall, usually up to 8 metres with a double extension. They need around 3.8m of headroom and an extra 2m for the hydraulic arm.

Grab lorry hire is cost- effective and efficient when it comes to moving large amounts of waste. Perhaps you have been landscaping your garden, creating a new drive or building an extension to your property. All of these projects create waste that you can’t always place in a skip due to the weight, this is when a grab lorry hire makes the most sense. You’ll want to avoid hiring multiple skips and spending hours loading them when we can simply pull up to your property and quickly muck away.

You should carefully consider where you pile your waste for collection by our grab lorry. Ensure that you place it in the open away from low hanging branches and cables, so the operator can pull up alongside and reach your waste.

Waste loaded onto our open-back lorries can occasionally extend above the sides, as long as the total weight is below maximum capacity. Drivers will use their knowledge and experience to advise on this. The tarpaulin can be attached over some loads to help secure loose items during transport.

On average our grab lorries are around 3 metres wide and weigh approx. 14 tonnes when empty and the maximum weight they can be is 26 tonnes.

The cost of hiring a grab lorry depends on the quantity and type of waste to be mucked away. Location and access to the site can also affect the cost. No two grab hire projects are the same. Please contact us and we will quickly be able to provide a cost.
