What the job needs

Plan the service around your site.

A grab lorry uses its hydraulic arm to load material into the vehicle, helping when you have a ready pile of waste and no loading machine on site. WCR provides grab hire for homeowners, builders and landscapers across Essex and London. Send the postcode, material details and photos so we can confirm a suitable vehicle, loading position and collection slot.

Chelmsford / Access preparation

Book around the site programme

For Chelmsford groundworks or deliveries, share your excavation or construction schedule and any delivery gate times. Confirm that the waste pile or material receiving area will be ready for the agreed slot.

Send any deadline or fixed delivery gate time when you enquire. The suitable vehicle, material and route determine the confirmed slot.

Material suitability

Is grab hire suitable for your job?

Grab collection works best when the material is ready in a reachable pile and a suitable loading position is available. It can help with excavations, driveway preparation, demolition rubble and landscaping clearances. Tell us if different waste streams are mixed together; a collection suitable for clean soil may not be suitable for a mixed pile.
