Is Grab Hire cheaper than a skip?

When it comes to waste management, grab hire and skip hire are two of the most popular options. They are both effective methods and are highly convenient for both domestic and commercial purposes, making it difficult to know which one to choose. For many people, it comes down to cost.

In this blog, we’re going to look at grab hire services and skip hire in more detail, as well as exploring which option is the cheapest.

What Is Cheaper Between A Grab Lorry & A Skip?

Before we examine the costs, it’s important to clearly decipher between skip hire and grab hire. Skip hire is very common and entails hiring a skip that will be placed on your driveway or outside your property requiring expensive permit from the local authority if on a road or highway.. There are guidelines on what can be put in a skip, but generally speaking, if you’re having a basic clear out or renovating a property, most of the waste can be put into a skip.

Skips come in lots of different sizes, making them ideal for both commercial clients and domestic clients. With a skip, you put the waste in the skip yourself.

Grab Hire Lorries arrive with a hydraulic arm with clamshell bucket to pick up materials quickly and safely allowing space to be regained and keep the project moving.

How Big Is The Job.

Next, you need to consider how big the job is. Generally speaking, grab lorries are used for larger jobs which means it’s cheaper to hire one than to hire several skips for a big job. In contrast, if you only have a moderate amount of waste, a skip will likely be the best option. Also with grab lorries, we cannot take ‘mixed waste’ which generally includes wood & plastic etc, so in this instance a skip is your only option.
