Grab lorry hire across Surrey, Sussex and South London

APPS Grab Hire has been providing grab lorry hire since 2004. We collect and dispose of all types of soil, rubbish, rubble, trees, plant cuttings and other waste material from your site, using eco-friendly yet cost-effective methods. Our customers range from homeowners clearing a garden to builders, groundworkers, utility contractors and local authorities.

Why choose grab hire over a skip?

If you have a lot of waste to move, grab hire is quicker and easier than loading a skip by hand. You do not need a permit for a skip on the road, and nothing is left sitting on your drive for days. While hiring a grab lorry can look more expensive at first, it often works out cheaper in the long run: time is money, and our grab clears in minutes what would take hours to load by hand.

  • Each grab lorry holds around two and a half times as much as a large skip
  • Long-reach grab arm loads over walls, hedges and fences
  • The driver does the loading, so your team keeps working
  • Same day or next day collections on request
  • We recycle as much of your waste as possible

What can a grab lorry take?

Our grab lorries are ideal for heavy, bulky and inert waste, including:

  • Soil and clay from excavations
  • Rubble, brick and hardcore
  • Concrete from breaking out
  • Garden waste, trees and plant cuttings
  • Hedge and stump clearance
  • Mixed site waste

Let us know what you are clearing when you book. Some materials need to be kept separate, and we will tell you how best to load or sort them so they can be recycled.

Typical grab hire jobs

We regularly clear waste from extensions, driveway and patio installations, garden landscaping, footings and foundations, basement digs, site clearance and demolition. Because the grab works from the road, it is perfect where access is tight and a skip or digger cannot get close to the waste.

More than just waste removal

Hiring our grab lorry also gives you extra manpower. One of our qualified drivers operates the grab and drives away when the lorry is full. We also use our grab lorries for reinstatement works, muck away, backfill and the delivery of quality aggregates, which we can tip or grab into place on site.

How booking works

  1. Call or send an enquiry. Tell us the address, what the waste is and roughly how much there is.
  2. We confirm a time. We will give you a price and a collection slot, often for the same or next day.
  3. We grab and go. Our driver loads the waste with the grab and takes it away for recycling.

FAQs

Grab Hire FAQs

Do I need a permit for grab hire?

Usually not. The lorry is only parked while it loads, so unlike a skip it does not normally need a road permit. If you are unsure about access or parking restrictions, call us and we will advise.

How far can the grab reach?

Our lorries have long-reach grab arms that can load over walls, fences and hedges. Tell us about the access when you book and we will confirm it can reach your waste.

How much waste fits in a grab lorry?

Each of our grab lorries holds roughly two and a half times as much as a large skip, making it far more economical for bulk soil and rubble.

Can you take garden waste and tree cuttings?

Yes. We collect garden waste, trees, plant cuttings and stumps as well as soil, rubble and hardcore.

How quickly can you come out?

We can often provide same day or next day grab hire on request. Call 07710 804 656 to check availability.

What happens to the waste?

We aim to recycle at least 75% of the waste we clear. Soil, stone, concrete and brick are sorted and processed to keep them out of landfill.
