Grab Hire in Gloucester
Grab hire is a fast, efficient alternative to skip hire for removing large quantities of soil, rubble, hardcore and green waste. A grab lorry uses a hydraulic arm to load waste directly from your site — no manual loading required. Compare grab hire companies across South West.
Grab Hire Prices in Gloucester
Grab hire in Gloucester typically costs £200-£350 per load, which is equivalent to 3-4 builders skips worth of material. A grab lorry can carry 12-16 tonnes per load. The price usually includes the lorry, driver and disposal. Compared to hiring multiple skips, a grab lorry is often cheaper and much faster — a full load takes 20-30 minutes to collect versus waiting days for skip swaps. Companies in Gloucester can usually attend within 1-2 days of booking.
When to Choose Grab Hire Over a Skip
Choose grab hire when you have a large amount of loose material like soil, rubble, sand or garden waste. It is ideal when you cannot place a skip on your property (the grab arm can reach over walls and fences). It is faster than a skip for big clearances — no waiting for the skip to be collected. It is also better for heavy materials that would make a skip overweight. The main limitation is that the grab lorry needs to park within reach of the waste, typically within 6 metres.
