The Hidden Cost of DIY Waste Removal
When homeowners decide to dig up their own lawn, they usually order a standard 'Midi' or 'Builder's' skip. This is often a massive financial mistake. Old turf and wet clay are incredibly heavy. You can only fill a standard skip roughly halfway with soil before it becomes legally too heavy for the lorry to lift away. You end up having to hire two or three skips just to clear a small garden!
The Grab Lorry Advantage
When you hire us for a full installation, we do not use skips. We use heavy-duty Grab Lorries. This provides massive advantages:
- Cheaper by the Tonne: A single 8-wheel grab lorry can hold the equivalent of roughly three massive builder's skips, making it significantly cheaper for heavy soil removal.
- Zero Manual Labor: You don't have to break your back wheelbarrowing mud into a steel bin. The lorry's hydraulic crane simply reaches over your wall or fence and scoops the pile of waste directly off your driveway.
- Instant Removal: There is no ugly skip sitting on your driveway for two weeks blocking your cars. The waste is gone in 20 minutes.
