Grab Lorry Hire, Muck Away and Soil Removal in Chobham.

Chobham is a village between Woking and Bagshot, best known for Chobham Common, one of the largest areas of lowland heath in the south of England and a national nature reserve. It is a village of older cottages, converted farm buildings and large detached houses on big plots, joined to West End, Bisley and Brookwood by lanes that were never meant for a lorry.

It is also the closest of our four areas to the yard at Mayford, a few minutes away along the A320 and the A322, which is why a grab lorry can usually be with you the same day. We work here for builders on the larger plots, landscapers, groundworkers and homeowners, and the jobs range from a garden clearance to the footings for a new house.

The big plots mean big jobs, and the lanes mean access needs thinking about. The eight-wheeler does most of the work; the mini grab does the rest, down the lanes the big lorry cannot turn in.

Grab Lorry Hire in Chobham

On the larger Chobham plots an eight-wheel grab lorry comes into its own. The arm reaches 7.6 metres from where the lorry parks and lifts a full sixteen tonnes in about twenty minutes, so the spoil from footings, a basement or a big garden can sit where the digger left it. On a long drive the lorry can often come onto the plot itself.

For the narrow lanes towards West End, Bisley and the common, and the older cottages with no room to park a nine-metre lorry, we send the mini grab. It carries up to nine tonnes, turns in a fraction of the space, and can take two materials at once thanks to its dividing plate.

Muck Away and Soil Removal in Chobham

Chobham sits on the sandy heathland soils of the Bagshot beds, so the spoil from most digs is light, free-draining sand rather than clay, with wetter ground near the Mill Bourne and the Bourne. Sand loads quickly and a full lorry is a full lorry, so muck away here is usually quick and straightforward. We price it per load, with a waste transfer note for every one.

Garden jobs on the bigger plots often produce a lot of turf and topsoil. That goes in together, lifted over the fence, and screened topsoil or Type 1 can come back on the same run.

Getting a Grab Lorry to You in Chobham

The A322 from Bagshot, the A319 through the village and the A320 from Woking all take an eight-wheeler. Windsor Road, Station Road and the lanes out to West End, Castle Grove and the common are narrower, and some of the older cottages have no space to park a big lorry at all. We plan the parking spot with you first, or send the mini grab, and a photo of the road is all we need to decide.

Good to know

Grab Hire in Chobham, Your Questions Answered.

Is there a grab lorry near me in Chobham?

Yes. Our lorries are based at Mayford on the A320, about 5 minutes from Chobham, and we run into Chobham and the villages around it every working day. Call 01483 323524 and we will tell you when the next lorry can be with you.

How quickly can you get to Chobham?

Usually the same day. Chobham is the closest of our areas to the yard at Mayford, a few minutes along the A320 and the A322.

Can a grab lorry get down the lanes in Chobham?

The main roads take an eight-wheeler. For the narrow lanes and the older cottages we send the mini grab, which carries up to nine tonnes and turns in a much smaller space.

Can you come onto the drive on a big plot?

Often, yes, if the drive is wide enough and the ground will take the lorry. We check that with you before we come out.

Do you take sandy soil from Chobham?

Yes. The sandy heathland spoil around Chobham goes as inert waste and loads quickly. It is priced per load like everything else.

Can you deliver aggregates to Chobham?

Yes. MOT Type 1, crushed concrete, ballast, sharp sand and topsoil, placed with the grab where you want them.
