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

Godalming is a market town on the River Wey, four miles south of Guildford, with a High Street of Bargate stone and timber-framed buildings and a claim to being the first town in the world with a public electricity supply, back in 1881. It is a place of old houses on narrow streets, Victorian terraces around Farncombe station, Edwardian houses on the hills, 1930s semis, post-war estates like Ockford Ridge, and large properties out at Busbridge and Munstead.

That mix keeps a grab hire company busy. Extensions and basements on the older houses, driveways on the semis, gardens on the big plots, and the groundworks that go with all of them. We cover Godalming from our yard at Mayford, about twenty minutes up the A3100 and the A320, and we can usually be with you the same day or the next.

Everything we do here is priced per load and loaded from the road. Our eight-wheel grab lorries carry sixteen tonnes and reach 7.6 metres over a wall or fence, and the mini grab carries up to nine tonnes for the narrower streets and smaller jobs.

Which lorry, which street

Godalming Street by Street, and the Lorry That Fits.

More of Godalming is narrow than anywhere else we cover. This is how we usually decide, before the lorry leaves.

  • The Old Centre

    Church Street, the Mint and the streets around the High Street

    Mini grab

    Narrow, one-way and short of parking. The mini grab, and a time agreed first.

  • Farncombe

    The terraces around the station

    Mini grab

    Tight kerbside parking. The mini grab for most jobs, the eight-wheeler where a drive gives room.

  • The Estates

    Ockford Ridge, Aarons Hill, Binscombe

    Eight-wheeler

    Wide enough to park and load an eight-wheeler from the road.

  • The Big Plots

    Busbridge, Munstead, Hascombe

    Eight-wheeler

    Long drives and large gardens. Full loads, and the lorry can often come onto the plot.

  • The Main Roads

    Meadrow, Ockford Road, the Portsmouth Road

    Eight-wheeler

    An eight-wheeler parks like any other vehicle for twenty minutes.

  • The Lanes South

    Hambledon, Hydestile, the Witley lanes

    Mini grab

    Single track in places. Send a photo of the road and we will tell you which lorry.

Grab Lorry Hire in Godalming

Godalming has more narrow streets than most of the towns we cover. The old centre around Church Street and the Mint, the terraces of Farncombe and the lanes towards Busbridge and Hascombe were not laid out with a nine-metre lorry in mind. The eight-wheeler still does most of our work here, on the estates, the main roads and the larger plots, but the mini grab earns its keep in Godalming more than anywhere else.

Both lorries load from the road with a hydraulic arm, so the pile can stay where the digger left it, behind the wall or over the fence, and nothing has to be barrowed through the house. Tell us where the lorry can park and we will send the right one.

Muck Away and Soil Removal in Godalming

Godalming sits on the Lower Greensand, so the spoil from a dig is often sandy and lighter than the clay we see closer to Guildford, with heavier ground further south towards the Weald. It makes little difference to you, because we price muck away per load rather than per tonne. A full load is a full load whatever it weighs, and a waste transfer note follows by email for every one.

For garden jobs, turf, topsoil and subsoil go in together, and we can bring screened topsoil or MOT Type 1 back on the same lorry for the lawn or the new drive.

Getting a Grab Lorry to You in Godalming

The A3 and the A3100 bring us in from the north, and Meadrow, Ockford Road and the Portsmouth Road carry an eight-wheeler comfortably. The old centre, Farncombe's terraced streets and the lanes out to Busbridge, Munstead and Hascombe are where we plan the parking spot with you first, or send the mini grab. A photo of the road and the pile is all we need to decide.

Grab Hire in Godalming, Your Questions Answered.

Is there a grab lorry near me in Godalming?

Yes. Our lorries are based at Mayford on the A320, about 20 minutes from Godalming, and we run into Godalming and the villages around it every working day. Call 01483 323524 and we will tell you when the next lorry can be with you.

Can a grab lorry get into Farncombe or the old town?

The main roads yes. For the terraced streets and the narrow lanes we usually send the mini grab, which carries up to nine tonnes and turns in a much smaller space. Send us a photo of the road and we will tell you which lorry.

How quickly can you get to Godalming?

Same day or next day where we can. Godalming is about twenty minutes from our yard at Mayford.

Do you take sandy soil and greensand spoil?

Yes. Sand, greensand, clay and chalk all go as inert spoil, priced per load whatever the weight.

Can you deliver aggregates in Godalming?

Yes. MOT Type 1, crushed concrete, ballast, sharp sand and topsoil, placed with the grab, and on the same visit as a muck away if you want.

Per load, quoted over the phone from a photo of the pile and the parking spot. No permit, no weighbridge extras.
