Is Grab Hire Better Than Skip Hire?

If you are working on a renovation project or a building site in the UK there are many times when it is necessary to remove and transport waste. This is especially the case when there is a demolition job involved before commencing any building.

There can be umpteen tonnes of waste all of which needs to be disposed of.

Even on a small contract, there can still be a lot of waste, and many contractors will opt for skip hire to get rid of it. However, in most instances it can be far better to use grab hire instead of a skip.

Apart from any other considerations, a skip has to be delivered, dropped off, filled with waste, and then collected again. That would seem obvious, but it means that a skip that is filled can be sitting there just basically getting in everyone’s way while doing nothing.

Not only that, but if it is on the road, it can be even more of a nuisance. And when it is on the road, you need to get a permit from the local council which costs money. In addition, if you need more than one skip, that has to be delivered to site while the filled one is collected, so there can be delays there as well.

This is why more and more projects are turning to grab hire instead. It doesn’t matter how much waste needs to be disposed of because it can all be heaped into a pile and then collected by a grab truck. At T G Commercials Self Hire, we can provide you with 7.5 ton lorry rental with a grab attached. This means that you can have the lorry arrive, collect the waste, and then it is gone. If there is a lot, then the grab hire lorry can simply dump the first lot at the waste site or wherever it is going, and then return to collect the next load.

This means that when you use our 7.5 ton lorry rental, in nearly all cases you can get rid of all the waste that has been produced in the course of a day. Even if there is more, it should still only take a couple of days at most to remove. We even have bigger trucks if required, so you could go up to 18 tons or 26 tons as needed. It’s all a lot better than old-fashioned skips!
