What waste do grab lorries take?

Grab lorries can take a wide range of waste streams, removing loads of up to 16 tonnes on one go! Our 8 wheel grabs are great for locations where space is limited or at sites with low walls and fencing as they are able to reach over, removing the need to move the waste manually.

The types of waste that grabs can take include:

  • Builders waste
  • Inert soil
  • Concrete
  • Bricks
  • Asphalt
  • Green waste

The hardcore, rubble and asphalt collected by our grabs is repurposed for recycled aggregate production. We produce our recycled aggregate, iBlend, a Type 1, crushed primary/recycled blended aggregate at our Butser Quarry. It is ideal for use in ground engineering projects such as sub base layers for roads, hard standings and access areas.

This process is great for the environment as it allows the unwanted materials to be reused rather than going to landfill, and it also means that fewer primary materials, such as limestone, are being used, conserving those levels.

The versatility that grabs offer in terms of the types of waste they can remove make them ideal for a range of purposes domestic jobs such as landscaping/garden projects and driveway renewals, as well as commercial projects including construction works, house building, and jobs in the utilities, infrastructure and agricultural sectors.
