Essex’s Leading Grab Lorry Hire Company — 20+ Years of Experience. Fast, reliable grab lorry hire across Essex for construction, landscaping and waste clearance projects of all sizes.
Orbital Equipment provides professional grab lorry hire across Essex, offering one of the most efficient and cost-effective methods of collecting and removing large volumes of material from any site. Whether you are managing a construction project, undertaking a major landscaping job, or clearing a site of rubble and waste, our grab lorries deliver the speed and capacity you need to keep your project on schedule. With over 20 years of experience in plant hire across the region, we are the trusted choice for contractors, developers, and homeowners throughout Essex.
A grab lorry — sometimes called a grab truck or grab hire vehicle — uses a hydraulic crane arm fitted with a large clamshell bucket to reach over walls, fences, and obstacles to collect material directly from the ground. This eliminates the need for manual loading and significantly reduces labour costs and turnaround times on site. Our grab lorries can typically carry between 8 and 16 tonnes per load, making them ideal for high-volume material removal where efficiency is essential.
Our grab lorry hire service covers the full county of Essex, including Chelmsford, Colchester, Basildon, Brentwood, Southend-on-Sea, Harlow, Witham, Braintree, and all surrounding areas. We operate a modern, well-maintained fleet and can often accommodate same-day or next-day bookings depending on availability. If you need a grab lorry at short notice anywhere in Essex, contact our team and we will do our best to accommodate your requirements quickly and professionally.
Grab lorries are suitable for collecting and removing a wide range of materials, including soil, clay, sand, gravel, hardcore, concrete rubble, bricks, green waste, and mixed construction debris. They are commonly used on new-build developments, road construction projects, garden landscaping schemes, driveway installations, and demolition clearances. If you are unsure whether a grab lorry is the right solution for your project, our experienced team is happy to advise you on the most suitable and cost-effective option.
