While getting in a skip to handle waste materials makes sense for most construction and renovation projects, there are times when restricted space or access means another solution in needed.
While getting in a skip to handle waste materials makes sense for most construction and renovation projects, there are times when restricted space or access means another solution in needed.
This scenario led to the development of the grab lorry – a truck with the capacity of several skips which has been modified with the addition of a heavy-duty hydraulic loading arm able to reach past obstacles such as trees, fences, streams and walls.
One of its main attractions is that waste need not be collected in areas that may cause a nuisance to neighbours but can be kept on-site until the arrival of the grab lorry to collect material for disposal.
A brief visit by a grab lorry to pick up rubble and discarded items makes this a cost effective solution for many who do not want the inconvenience of blocking access by locating a skip at their project.
