Grab hire areas we cover
Soil, stone and hardcore grab hire across Blackpool, the Fylde Coast, Preston and Lancaster.
Grab hire muckaway
A grab lorry collects a full load of soil or hardcore straight from your site, so there is no skip to fill and nothing left on your property.
Soil & Stone Grab Load Away
One grab load of soil and stones — approximately 12–16 tonnes depending on density. We accept clean topsoil, subsoil, clay, excavated made ground, stones, tarmac, turf and general dig-out from footings, groundworks and landscaping. Loads must be free of contamination — no plasterboard, timber, plastics, general waste, Japanese knotweed or hazardous materials.
We send a 6-wheel or 8-wheel grab lorry depending on availability and access; the price is the same either way.
Hardcore Grab Load Away
One grab load of clean, inert hardcore — approximately 12–16 tonnes depending on density. We accept bricks, concrete, blocks, paving slabs, flags, tarmac, kerbs, ceramic tiles, stone, mortar and crushed rubble. Loads must be clean – no soil mixed in, and no plasterboard, timber, metal, plastics, insulation or general waste.
We send a 6-wheel or 8-wheel grab lorry depending on availability and access; the price is the same either way.

Grab hire questions
How much does a grab load hold?
Roughly 12 to 16 tonnes, depending on how dense the material is.
What can go in a grab load?
Clean soil and stones, or clean hardcore such as bricks, concrete and rubble. Loads must be free of plasterboard, timber, plastics, general waste and hazardous materials.
Is grab hire better than a skip?
For a full load of soil or hardcore, often yes: a grab load holds far more than a skip, and there is no skip left on your property.
How much access does the lorry need?
We send a 6-wheel or 8-wheel grab lorry depending on availability. The arm reaches over walls and fences, but the lorry needs to park close to the pile. Call us if access is tight.
