Question 2

Reliable grab hire in West London

Accepted Answer

When you have decided to use a grab lorry to dispose of your waste, it is important that you give your chosen service provider as much notice as possible to allow documentation and logistics to be arranged. If you believe you have more waste than can fit in the grab, you can hire multiple visits. Skip hire is somewhat similar to grab hire, however there are many advantages to grab hire. For instance, the lorry has a grabber arm that can reach up to 8 metres and can reach over objects that are in the way of the waste. Also, the grab truck can be fully loaded in about 15 minutes and only really requires the driver to operate the grabber when loading the vehicle. Due to the lack of manual labour, less accidents will occur as there is no heavy lifting by a person, only a machine.

At Wayst, our clients are our main priority and we want to showcase that during your experience with us. We require all our grab hire partners to have all the required training and qualifications for grab hire before they complete a job for us. This is so the client can be assured that their waste is being collected and disposed of safely and professionally.
