Services
Grab Truck Hire
Our grab truck hire service efficiently removes large volumes of construction and garden waste using vehicles with 16.5-tonne capacity and 7-metre reach. Ideal for commercial building sites and domestic gardens, this service eliminates the need for skip permits while handling materials like rubble, soil, and tree cuttings. The hydraulic reach allows waste collection over fences and walls where safe, making it perfect for difficult access sites.
Tipper Truck Hire
Our tipper truck hire provides cost-effective transportation of construction materials and waste with capacities up to 20 tonnes. Suitable for both domestic gardening projects and large-scale commercial developments, these vehicles streamline material handling through hydraulic tipping mechanisms. The service supports efficient site operations by reducing manual labour requirements and accelerating project timelines for tasks involving earth, sand, and building aggregates.
Site Clearance
We offer comprehensive site clearance services for commercial and domestic properties, including small-scale demolition and land preparation. Our equipment handles materials like concrete, bricks, and organic waste while maintaining environmental compliance through recycling initiatives. With over 30 years' experience, we manage projects ranging from garden cleanups to pre-construction site preparation using compact diggers suitable for restricted access locations.
Ready Mixed Concrete
Our volumetric concrete mixing service delivers precise quantities of ready mixed concrete directly to your site. Using mobile batching plants, we provide grades from GEN 0 to ST 5 for applications ranging from domestic foundations to commercial infrastructure. This on-demand mixing system minimises waste while ensuring compliance with British and European standards for construction projects across East Lancashire and the North West.
Aggregate Supply
We supply high-quality building and decorative aggregates including crushed stone, gravel, and sand for construction and landscaping projects. Our product range covers MOT type 1 hardcore, decorative chippings, and specialist sands for various applications. With bulk delivery options and competitive pricing, we serve both commercial contractors and domestic customers throughout the North West region.

Ordered the 20mm limestone and it was perfect for what I needed, delivered on time and dropped where I requested. My only slight issue is I would like it if I could get a delivery if I order a little less but minimum order I think is 150 .

Struggled to hire a skip, contacted a few grab companies that weren't responsive but this company had a grab lorry with us the same afternoon, cleared the waste from a garage demolition efficiently and it was a lot more convenient than having a skip on site. Would be happy to recommend.
