Terraced muck shifts
Six-wheel grab parked nose-out, boom over the rear yard wall, in and out before the school run finishes.
Smethwick is twenty minutes from the yard on the M5, dropping in at Junction 1 for B66 and B67. Dense Victorian terraces, mid-century semis, tight side streets and the odd big plot near Warley Woods. The six-wheel grab does most of the work here. The eight-wheeler comes out when the road allows it.
Smethwick, M5 J1
Smethwick is one of those places where sending the wrong lorry costs everyone the afternoon. Streets around Cape Hill, Soho and Londonderry were built before kerbside parking was a thing. The six-wheel grab has a shorter wheelbase and a narrower body, so it gets in, parks square, loads up and is gone before the bin lorry catches up.

Smethwick, answered
Twenty minutes from the yard on the M5. Most B66 and B67 jobs go same-day when booked by 11am. Bulk-bag deliveries by HIAB land next working day.
Yes. Bearwood, Cape Hill, Soho, Londonderry, Warley Woods, Rolfe Street, Galton Bridge and the wider B66 and B67 patch are routine routes.
For most B66 and B67 terraced roads, the six-wheel grab fits. Boom reaches up to six metres so the lorry can sit on the road and lift over the wall. Tell us the road name and we will tell you which lorry to send.
Usually no. The grab is a passing collection, not a parked skip. Red routes or specific bay restrictions are the only exceptions and we will sort the paperwork if you need it.
Yes. Backload pricing. Grab arrives with the aggregate, tips it, loads up the spoil and goes. Cheapest way to do a small drive change-out.
