Learn more about Grab Hire in Romford

Accepted Answer

If you are looking for a sustainable and cost effective way of removing and disposing of bulky or heavy waste from your property, then grab hire is a very suitable option. Over 1.5 million tonnes of construction waste is generated in Romford alone each year. Construction waste makes up a large portion of the rubbish collected by grab hire vehicles, which is why the demand for the service is so high in this area. Grab lorries can pick up domestic waste that has piled up to excessive amounts over time and clear waste that has been fly tipped.

When deciding if grab hire is a better option for you than skip hire, you should take the following information into consideration:

- Grab hire vehicles can hold more than double the amount of an average skip
- Less likely for injuries to occur with grab lorries, as you do not have to physically lift the items yourself
- No permit is needed for grab hire, so the process is simpler and quicker
- The hydraulic arm can extend to about 8 metres and can reach over any obstructions like walls
- Takes less time to load waste into a brab vehicle than loading and hauling it into a skip

There are many circumstances that will require grab hire services and we have a lot of availability in Romford to help you get the job done properly and compliantly, leaving you stress free.

Question 2

Quick and reliable grab hire in Romford

Accepted Answer

At Wayst, we have partnered with several fully trained and qualified grab hire services, who we know and trust will collect and dispose of your waste. Grab hire vehicles can be particularly useful for the disposal of builders' waste, like heavy waste, inert waste (bricks, tiles, concrete), and ground waste (soil). Many of the waste products can be extremely difficult and dangerous to lift and transport by hand, which is why the grab arm fitted to the lorry is ideal. The arm can lift around 16 tonnes of waste in a single load.

One of our aims is to make waste disposal more sustainable, which is why we ensure that our partners recover as much recyclable material from waste collections as possible.

Once you request our grab hire services, we can help you arrange a time for collection that is suitable for you. Then we can proceed to send one of our providers to you to remove the waste from your property. They will then transport your waste to a transfer site where it can be appropriately distributed to landfill or recycle centres. To reduce any potential stress for our clients, our partners will provide all the necessary documents, including Waste Transfer Notes and Consignment Notes.
