06 / Useful answers

Let's clear
a few things up.

First time booking a grab lorry? These are the details that help you get started.

All questions & answers
What is grab hire?

Grab hire uses a lorry with a hydraulic grab arm to lift suitable loose material into its body. It can help with soil, rubble and hardcore from building, groundwork and landscaping jobs. WCR checks the material and site access before confirming a collection.

What does WCR need to give me a quote?

Send the site postcode, the material to be collected or delivered, an estimate of the quantity, and your preferred date. Photos of the material and the route to it help WCR check access and plan the right vehicle.

Can a grab lorry collect over a wall or fence?

The grab arm can sometimes reach over an obstacle, depending on the lorry position, height, distance and working space. Send clear photos and dimensions. WCR needs to check overhead cables, parked vehicles and safe access before confirming the job.

Do you deliver aggregates as well as collecting waste?

Yes. WCR supplies loose aggregates including MOT Type 1, sand, ballast, topsoil and crushed concrete. Tell the team what you are building, the material specification and quantity, and where the load needs to be placed.

Which areas do you cover?

WCR is based in Aveley and serves Essex and East London, including Thurrock, Grays, Tilbury, Purfleet, Romford, Rainham, Barking, Dagenham, Brentwood and Basildon. Send your postcode so the team can confirm coverage and availability for your job.

Can you arrange an urgent collection?

Call WCR with your postcode, material and access details to check the current diary. Collection and delivery dates are agreed directly with the team and depend on the job, location and vehicle availability.
