Frequently Asked Questions
How a grapple truck works, what we haul, and how to get on the schedule.
How does a grapple truck work?
A grapple truck is a dump truck with a hydraulic claw mounted behind the cab. The claw opens, grabs a pile — branches, brush, bulky items — and drops it into the dump body. It handles volume and weight a hand-loading crew can't move quickly.
Who is a grapple truck for versus a dumpster rental?
A dumpster sits on your property for days or weeks while you fill it. A grapple truck visits once, loads an existing pile, and leaves. It's the better fit when the debris is already on the ground — after a storm, a yard cleanup, or a landscaping job — rather than an ongoing renovation that generates debris daily.
Do you handle storm cleanup jobs?
Yes. Storm cleanup — downed limbs, branches, and wind-blown debris — is one of our most common calls across Port St. Lucie, Stuart, Palm City, Hobe Sound, and Jupiter, FL. See our storm cleanup page for details.
Can you clear debris for an HOA or common area?
Yes, we work with HOAs on common-area cleanup after storms or scheduled trimming. Call (561) 876-3114 to discuss the scope and access for the property.
Do you work with contractors on job-site debris?
Yes, we partner with contractors on construction and demolition debris haul-off, useful for smaller jobs or between dumpster swaps.
