Do I need a permit for a grab lorry in Ongar?

Generally, no permit is required from the local council if the lorry can operate from the public road for the short duration it takes to load. Unlike a skip that remains stationary for days, our lorries are considered mobile plant. However, if your site is on a narrow street with strict parking restrictions or near a busy junction on the A414, please let us know so we can plan the safest approach.

Can you reach over my fence to collect waste in CM5?

Yes, our hydraulic cranes have a maximum reach of 7.6 metres from the side of the vehicle. This allows us to park on the road in Ongar and lift soil or rubble over a standard garden fence or boundary wall. The only limitations are low - hanging power lines or large tree branches that might obstruct the crane's movement. For safety advice regarding obstructions, call us on 01992 635454.
