Road Maintenance โ€“ Flood Recovery Package of Works

We proudly partner with councils, developers, and commercial builders across NSW and VIC to deliver fast, safe, and compliant waste removal solutions.

Case Study Overview

Grab Hire was engaged through a competitive tender process to deliver a flood recovery package of works in Central West NSW. Our grab trucks provided the most cost-effective solution for remediation of stormwater drainage, offering speed, compliance, and efficiency that even outperformed local contractors.

Value Add by Grab Hire

  • Delivered a safer, more efficient alternative to conventional plant and multiple operators
  • Provided cost savings by reducing the need for floats, additional machinery, or static traffic control.
  • Sourced imported materials locally to support the regional community.
  • Ensured compliance with all scope requirements and contract terms.
  • Operated with minimal disruption while maximising output.

Challenges Our Grab Trucks Overcame

  • Clearing sediment and debris from longitudinal drainage and culverts.
  • Reinstating scour protection, rock mattresses, and erosion control at drains, abutments, and headwalls.
  • Delivering works safely while avoiding costly static lane closures by operating under mobile works traffic management plans.
  • Managing mobilisation efficiently โ€” with grab trucks that self-load, segregate materials, and work independently.
