What is grab hire?

Grab hire is a widely used term in the demolition and haulage industry and refers to hiring a grab lorry. This is a truck that will collect the materials without the need for an excavator then remove it from the building site.

Grab hire is best used when undergoing site clearance of small sites or sites that are coming to the end of a project and may not want to use skips any longer. If you have a large amount of debris from the demolition of a building, you’ll want to hire a grab lorry to dispose of this waste quickly and efficiently!

The benefit of using Grab hire over another waste disposal service, such as a skip, is that it is mobile and can pull alongside the debris, rather than you having to move the debris to it! These trucks are incredibly agile and are a popular choice for this reason – they make clearing a pile of rubbish light work.
