K&B Crushers:A Crusher Hire Service provider based in the UK
There are a growing number of companies offering mobile crushing services to recycle material on site for customer to reuse instead of importing newly quarried material or transporting material to a contractors yard for recycling and then bringing it or similar material back again to use as subase and fill on building and civil engineering projects.
This service can vary from hiring in a small portable crusher for the customer to feed material such as a broken up driveway through with a mini digger, up to providing a high capacity tracked unit of 250 ton per hour and large 360 excavators plus loading shovels and screens to process the material for a fee per ton into sorted and stockpiled material.
Smaller builders and farmers can now stockpile waste concrete and brick from there jobs and then bring in a contractor with a portable crusher to spend a few days converting it into usefull hardcore to use in roads and as hard standing areas or subbase in buildings. in some areas the may be able to procces material excavated on site into usefull hardcore.
Large projects such as windfarms in remote areas that need huge quantities of material for temporary roads and hard-standing areas often get permission to open a local borrow pit on site to reduce traffic on local roads by producing their own crushed stone and filling the resulting pit with unsuitable materiel excavated during foundation construction works and from soft areas which need replacing with compacted material to support the site traffic. This is considered far more Eco-Friendly than trucking in thousands of tons of stone from nearby quarries, often over narrow local roads which are not suitable for 8-wheel and arctic tippers running at 40 tons.
Other options[]
For low volumes/occasional use a crusher bucket attachment for a digger may be a suitable alternative.
