Grab Hire

Grab hire is a fast and cost-effective way of disposing of large quantities of waste without the bother of hiring a skip or securing a permit. With a larger capacity than the average skip – and usually able to carry far more weight as well – it’s ideal for all kinds of recyclable materials, including construction waste such as rubble, concrete and hardcore.

No, you don’t need a permit for grab hire. Skips usually need a permit because they’re commonly kept on the road for several days or weeks over the course of a project. A grab hire just arrives, scoops your waste into the back of the lorry and leaves – usually taking no more than half an hour to complete the job.

Our grab hire trucks cover a wide area in and around Essex, including Ipswich, Colchester and Chelmsford. You’ll find more details about which areas are covered by clicking here – otherwise, if you’re still not sure, just give us a call and we’ll be happy to answer any questions you might have.

The cost of our grab hire service varies according to the quantity and type of the waste, as well as where it needs to be collected from. If you need our assistance with some waste, just get in touch with a few details, and we’ll be able to provide a detailed and cost-effective quotation.

We’re committed to recycling as much of the waste we collect as possible. Our state-of-the-art recycling centre is equipped to handle a wide variety of waste – our latest waste figures show that in all but one month in 2024, we’ve sent more than 99.8% of the waste we collected for either recycling or creating green energy from waste.
