Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to hire a grab lorry in Canterbury?

To rent a grab lorry in Canterbury, the price depends on how long you need it and the amount of material, typically ranging from £180 to £450 per day or more.

For an accurate cost, contact TW Services. We'll ask about your waste type, volume, and site details, providing you with a customised quote.

Our quotes consider the size of the required skip, the frequency of collections and replacements, the type of waste to be collected, and the location. We don't provide a fixed price list because our aim is to offer you an accurate cost, taking all these factors into account.

Do you need a permit to hire a grab lorry?

Hiring a grab lorry has a significant advantage over a skip – you don't need a permit. Unlike skips, where you have to contact your local council for a permit, grab lorries don't require one.

This is because a skip, when placed on your site, might interfere with local traffic or cause disruptions. However, a grab lorry is mobile and loads much quicker, causing minimal disruption and eliminating the need for a permit.
