Attachments that are configured to crush coal are experiencing increased market demand.

double-handle the material while reducing transportation and traffic at the job site. This, in turn, limits pollution and safety hazards. “Reducing waste to smaller or more uniformed fragment sizes makes it easier and faster to reuse,” he says. “The debris that is generated in construction and demolition sites is bulky, heavy to handle, and traditionally increases transportation costs and double-handling operational costs.” He says the ALLU recycling bucket sorts materials from actual waste and, in doing so, lowers transportation and landfill costs and increases efficiency and productivity at the work site.
