Do you Need a Tipper Grab or a Grab Lorry?
Whether you hire a tipper or a grab lorry will depend on the facilities at your worksite. If you can (and are happy to) load the vehicle yourself via equipment already installed at the worksite a tipper is the best option. We’ll then remove the waste to be recycled once the vehicle is full.
If you don’t have the necessary equipment or would prefer us to load the vehicle we’d recommend using a grab lorry. A grab lorry has a loading bucket attached to it which can be used to transfer material from the worksite to the lorry.

Skip sizes guide
Our skip sizes range from four to 12 cubic yards which provide a very cost-effective way to dispose of bulky waste including furniture and garden waste. For a skip that will be placed on the road, there will be an extra charge of £50.00 (per week) added for a permit from the council. If a permit is required, it takes 3 days to obtain permission from the local authority so factor this in when you’re planning the hire of your skip.
To help you decide which size skip would be best for you, please refer to our waste skip sizes guide pages. We’ve included skip sizes in yards and skip capacity m3 to give you a good idea of what will fit in each skip.

Picking a grab lorry over a skip comes with a major advantage – you don't need a permit. Skips often need a permit from your local council, but grab lorries don't.
This is because skips have the potential to disrupt local traffic and block public areas. In contrast, grab lorries are mobile and load swiftly, resulting in fewer disruptions and eliminating the need for a permit.
