Hey Grinder Guy, howcan I increase profitsnext year?
The past few years havebeen trying times for all,but blue skies are ahead.
Winter is a good time to
review the past year andthe upcoming season.How you can reducecosts and increase prof-itability is dependent oneach business, but I cangive you a few ideas ofwhat to look for.
You cannot compareyear to year without com-paring something tangi-ble. Some companiestrack costs well, but ifyou don’t, compare yardsout the door to totalcosts. Are you going up or
are you going down?The profit or loss doesn’t
matter in this example,they will take care of them-selves. You do however,need to know where youare going. It doesn’t matterif you hired a new secre-tary or three new opera-tors, what went out andwhat you spent to do that,makes it pretty simple.
Here are six ideas toconsider:
• Repair and Mainte-nance: Probably yournumber one issue.Breakdowns are badenough, but it’s thedowntime and overtimespent catching up thatcost you real money.
1. Buy a grinder wearparts package and get adiscount and replaceeverything on your time.Chances are that you willfind other needs while re-placing these items.
2. Call your clutchmanufacturer for adviceon checking clutch wearand maybe get a cour-tesy visit.
3. Audit your colorantusage — How much colordid you buy? Subtracthow much do you haveleft? Then divide by num-ber of yards sold. That willgive you average pounds-per-yard rate. Check withyour Colorant Companyfor industry averages.
4. Call your Colorantsales rep. and have themcalibrate your colorantscale and pump whilechecking over your MattSteward of Colorbioticssays worn color machineblades cause a lack of ef-ficiency. Your Represen-
tative can check machinewear for you also. GeorgeMidlik of Amerimulchsaid that his companyhanded out numericalpush button countersand stop watches to ma-chine operators last yearso that they could trackbucket counts per minuteand per barrel and pre-vent any color usage vari-ation before it happens.Get your operators one.
5. Service engines andhydraulics — If you areclose to your 1000 or2000 hour service, do itearly when you have timerather than in the middleof full production season.
• Equipment UtilizationAre you utilizing your
equipment to its full po-tential? Double shifts?Split shifts?
Get into other busi-nesses. Drywall Recy-cling, Shingle Recyclingor Food Waste Compost-ing for example.
Or are you using yourequipment too much?
Reevaluate that low mar-gin product that is wearingout your equipment.
Remember, screenmore, grind less, and whyhaven’t you called me yet?
Replace that old technol-ogy like your old shakerdeck with a star screen insoil or mulch. Push of abutton and you can go from1-4/inch to 1-1/4-inchwith the same machine.
• ProductsCreate or add at least
one new product nextseason.
1. Maybe a high dollarproduct like a new mulchcolor of your local sportsteam.
2. A low dollar woodfuel product to get rid ofyour dirtier materials.
3. Screen the fines outof your mulch to save col-orant usage and weightand sell the fines to a pel-let plant or use them in anew potting soil mix.
4. Offer onsite grindingor screening services.
5. Add a retail yard.Just don’t add a prod-
uct that will cannibalizeone of your other prof-
itable products.• Automate something1. Convert something
to electric. Grinder,Screener, conveyors,something. There are hy-brid pieces of equipmenton the market now.
2. Screen two productsat once.
3. Grind into a screener.4. Add a conveyor and
use the wheel loader less.Conveyors are cheap
and come to work everyday and they don’t have tohave Obamacare. Push abutton and it is working.
• Advertise1. Local TV advertising
is relatively cheap andtheir market info is veryaccurate.
2. Donate product to lo-cal schools and sportscomplexes.
3. Sponsor local gardenradio show.
4. Team with locallandscapers and supplyall their needs.
• Review the Ask theGrinder Guy Articles ofthe past year
1. Screen more grindless. Consider a one onone consultation. I canoffer recommendations tohelp you screen your firstground product to a per-fect size at rates greaterthan your grinder canproduce. Are you doublegrinding? Does that costyou extra money?
2. Did you check outyour used wear parts?
3. Replace your station-ary shaker deck in yoursoil or mulch system with astar deck. That will costyou mere “peanuts” and re-duce your costs enough tobuy the entire Plantation!
4. Could you use a slowspeed shredder instead ofa high speed grinder?
5. Would plastic andstone removal help you?
I hope you had a suc-cessful 2011 and lookforward to helping you bemore profitable in 2012.

by Jon M. CaseyFor those who attended
the C&D Recycling Fo-rum in Ellicott City, MDSeptember 25-27, the op-portunity to network andto learn more about howto work in “Quiet Zones”offered insights into waysto demolish buildingswithout creating exces-sive air, water and noisepollution. These impor-tant techniques lead thediscussion during thisthree day event. As com-munities become morestrict and as customersdemand more from C&Drecyclers, a greaterawareness of the need forthese new methods is be-coming more prominent.
Mike Taylor, chief exec-utive of the National De-molition Association(NDA), hosted the sessionthat featured RichLorenz, president of Cen-tral Environmental Ser-vices of Orlando, FL andScott Knightly, presidentof EnviroVantage, Ep-ping, NH. Each of theircompanies have becomeexperts in dealing withdemolition projects thatrequire the utmost incare when it comes to en-vironmental control. Theyare especially skilled withnoise and dust abate-ment during the demoli-tion process.
Working for DisneyLorenz explained that
his ongoing working rela-tionship with Disney’stheme parks, has prompt-ed his company to becomethe best that they can beat specialty C&D work.Central has perfectedworking at a site duringnon-business hours, sothat an entity like a Dis-ney theme park, can con-tinue operations duringthe day without the visi-tors to the park being in-convenienced by the dem-olition crews or the equip-ment needed for jobs ofthis kind. Lorenz said inFebruary 2011, they werecalled upon to remove arestaurant/nightclub fa-cility after Disney man-agement chose to discon-tinue that kind of estab-lishment on their proper-ties. Because of their rep-utation as “family enter-tainment,” this kind of en-tertainment no longer fitinto that business model.
“We were called in to re-move a building that hadbeen closed and ‘un-touched’ for three years,”Lorenz recalled. “Initially,they were calling for all ofthe debris to be removedby barge across a lake to
avoid contact with the dai-ly crowds. We offered acounter proposal that hadus putting down largemats every evening afterhours and transportingthe debris to awaitingdumpster trucks for im-mediate removal. We start-ed at midnight and beganwrecking at 1am. We wereto be done by morningwhen the park opened,routinely by 8am.”
Lorenz said that whenthey began their work,they were surprised to
find how intact every-thing at the jobsite hadremained since therestaurant closed. Hesaid that by being in thiscondition, it gave them anextra level of control overthe job that most C&Dprojects doesn’t offer.More importantly, it in-creased the salvage valueof what they removedfrom the site.

Lumbering and the establishment of pulp andpaper mills accelerated the growth of OntarioCanada’s Sturgeon Falls area, a community that hasattracted French-Canadian settlers over time. Someof those included ancestors of Jean-Pierre Martin,executive assistant at Sturgeon Falls Brush &Contracting Limited, a leading land clearing andwood processing company founded in 1976 by thelate Claude Larcher. The company got its start whenfour family members with a couple of chain saws,began doing right-of-way land clearing for natural gasand pipelines. Today, under the direction of GerryLarcher and his team of trusted managers and super-intendants, Sturgeon Falls Brush has over 100employees while amassing an impressive fleet ofheavy iron — at last count, 138 pieces — and hasextended its services to include highway constructionand wood processing.
“Land clearing is still our bread and butter,” Martin
says, “although we have a fairly substantial chainlink fencing division and have added general con-tracting work. Around here, pretty much all industryis tied to the lumber industry. We’ve also gotten intothe biomass raw materials market, while expandingour trade territory to cover nearly all of Canada. We’vebeen very fortunate in that the majority of our workcomes to us, as opposed to us having to go out look-ing for it.”
Sturgeon Falls Brush bought a Vermeer® HG6000horizontal grinder in 2006, a time when there waslittle demand in their area for biomass. “Basically, weonly used it for erosion control and to create betteraccess on the right of way,” says Martin, “because itwas a requirement of jobs not only to remove the non-merchantable wood, which is basically biomass, butalso to account for it. Biomass also had to be used inan approved way, one of which was our original appli-cation as well as energy conversion. Pulp and paper
mills burn it in huge boilers to create steam, and ulti-mately, to subsidize much of the energy used topower mills and produce paper.”
Creating demand for biomassAccording to Martin, the majority of the wood
currently being processed by Sturgeon Falls Brush isstill being used for landscaping and erosion controlproducts because the demand for biomass in the areajust isn’t there … yet. The company has been work-ing on a number of projects, and is in discussionswith several individuals and companies that haveexpressed an interest in establishing power genera-tion plants to use biomass.
“We are working hard to create a market forbiomass and promote its use,” Martin says. “Rightnow, around here anyway, the biomass market is notbeing used to its full potential.”
Nearly 100 percent of the wood waste raw materialprocessed by Sturgeon Falls Brush is non-mer-chantable wood from their harvest operations.Material includes tops, branches and low grade tim-ber originating from the company’s land clearingoperations. Cost efficiencies in processing and trans-portation have stifled biomass demand. These areimpediments that Sturgeon Falls Brush is workinghard to address.
“We generally will not haul biomass any furtherthan 60 to 75 miles,” Martin says. “If we can staywithin that range, then there’s an economic viabilityto transporting it. There are a few co-generationplants within that range from here that are basicallyeither natural gas or biomass. It has been a challengefor our company because we are underutilizing ourgrinding potential right now.”
Sturgeon Falls Brush processed more than100,000 tons of processed wood waste in 2010, wellshort of the company’s nearly 300,000 ton capacity.The majority of the product is hauled to pulp mills inNorthern Ontario, in addition to a few local co-gener-ation plants that employ both biomass and naturalgas to generate power. Martin says grinding specifi-cations are fairly loose, but after experimenting withdifferent grind sizes, Sturgeon Falls Brush hasidentified sizes that are most efficient for the differenttypes of wood they process.
“We used to grind to 6-inch minus,” Martin says,“but we found that by converting to 4-inch minus wecan haul a much better load. The material seems topack better in the trailer despite taking a little bitlonger up front to grind. This seems to be theoptimum blend right now of productivity versus

haul.”
Logging versus land clearingMartin says there are specific regulatory attributes
that distinguish land clearing from logging. Loggingregulations require that a percentage of residual treesremain unscathed for natural regeneration. If it is aclear cut or semi-clear cut area, all trees are skiddedto a landing before being delivered and slashed so thebiomass material that’s available from the operationis contained within one pile. That’s when a SturgeonFalls Brush crew will transport one of the fourVermeer HG6000 horizontal grinders in their fleet toa site for processing wood waste where the groundproduct is loaded onto trucks, then transported tovarious customer locations.
In land clearing projects, where the timber is notharvested, but cleared for a new highway, a powerline or a building project, everything has to come out.
“It’s not a question of taking the biomass outbecause there’s a market for it, it’s a question of ifyou don’t have a market, you’re still responsible forremoving everything,” Martin says. “It’s why we gotinto the biomass market in the first place — to createa sustainable, renewable end use for the materialsthat were unusable, i.e., smaller pieces, such as thetops, branches etc. That’s why we bought our firstVermeer grinder.”
Timing, availability and creating demandSturgeon Falls Brush is located in the heart of
logging country, where they have access to approxi-mately 300,000 tons of raw waste wood each year.The challenge, however, is timing. The “when andwhere” of material availability, and matching that toequipment demands and access, is their primarychallenge.
At the time Sturgeon Falls Brush purchased theirfirst Vermeer grinder, the company was about toembark on a large land clearing job for a pipelineexpansion project: the addition of a 42-inch line thatnecessitated widening of the existing right of way. Theproject was more than 40 miles in length. On thatjob, they positioned their HG6000 grinder amidst therugged, densely wooded terrain where the waste woodwas ground on site. Since that first experience, thecompany has purchased another HG6000 horizontalgrinder, and two HG6000TX horizontal grinders withtrack undercarriages.
Because Sturgeon Falls Brush is continually beingchallenged to create additional demand for wastewood and biomass, they are committed to promotingany project that could use the material within a 60mile radius of their Sturgeon Falls home base. “It’s amatter of putting the right project together to use thatmaterial.” Martin says. “We want to make sure themachines are running 40 to 45 weeks a year, insteadof just 20. Obviously the optimum is to have all of ourgrinders in operation at the same time.”
Playing catch-up with EuropeAfter a visit to Austria a couple of years ago, Martin
discovered that North America is lagging behindEurope in biomass utilization technology. He foundthat North America trails overseas counterpartslargely because the prices for natural gas and hydro-electric power here, remain too low to motivate wide-spread development of more renewable, sustainableenergy sources.
“Take diesel fuel as a prime example,” Martin says.“It’s like $10 to $12 a gallon, so there are no oilfurnaces in Austria. And, they don’t have natural gas.So they burn biomass and municipal waste. Theyhave the technology to make it clean. Most people inNorth America don’t understand that. The technologyis there. Unfortunately we just don’t accept it here. Ifwe don’t see it for ourselves, we don’t believe it.”
At present, Martin feels that the potential for bio-mass in North America is unquantifiable, so his com-pany is in discussions with some remote communi-ties that don’t have access to natural gas to establishpilot projects for district heating and power genera-tion.
“The idea that this could all be self-sustainable,much the same as it has been in Europe for years, isall very exciting,” he says. “But first, we need to makeit economically viable. And that will only happen withinvolvement and buy-in from government and largerprivate corporations. Sturgeon Falls Brush is just abit too small to be directing such an initiative withoutsubstantial capital for research and development.”
In remote locations, the tracked mobility of the HG6000tx gives users like Sturgeon Falls Brush, the option ofmoving it to wherever it is needed.
by Jon M. CaseyWhen Sturgeon Falls Brush & Contracting, Ltd.
was in the market for a grinder that could give themthe production capacities that they needed, and atthe same time was easily transportable to some ofthe remote job sites that they work within Canada’sOntario Province, they chose Vermeer’s HG6000horizontal grinder. Their initial purchase, a wheeledHG6000 followed by a second wheeled HG6000 unit,made it clear that the 630HP grinders were success-ful for grinding the wood materials that SturgeonFalls Brush’s needed to grind. It wasn’t long afterthat, that the company’s growth required them topurchase two more, both tracked models.
With the company’s addition of the two trackedHG6000tx units, the added mobility of the “goanywhere” grinders, gave crews the increasedproductivity that they needed during busy times.More importantly, with the grinder’s wireless remotecontrol feature, the loader operator is able to move
the unit to the next work area with ease, up to 300-feet away. The HG6000tx’s high ground clearanceand sealed rollers on the double grouser track pads,helps keep the tracks clear of material while the unitis in operation.
Designed with safety and efficiency in mind, theHG6000tx is outfitted with an innovative ThrownObject Deflector (TOD), positioned above thegrinder’s intake. Screen changes are easier with aneasy access design that features top loading capabil-ities, making screen changes quick and simple. Thegrinder’s SmartGrind system coupled with itshydraulic feed roller’s down pressure, keeps the feedmaterial moving into the grinding chamber foroptimum productivity. With its wide, open endedfeed table (available in 14 and 20-foot lengths), overthe side loading is easy and efficient. Material movesthrough the HG6000tx with ease.

doors and the interiorwas just as it was the daythey closed the doors,” hesaid. “The first thing wehad to do was to removethe furniture and appli-ances that were left be-hind. It was as if theyjust closed the doors andwalked away.” “We creat-ed a co-mingled flow ofmaterial so that we couldsort the material after itwas hauled away. Wealso had to put a drapearound the project sothat visitors could notsee the recycling projectduring daytime hours.We left the exterior con-
crete walls up until thelast thing to help keepthe job contained.”
“Disney required thatthere not be any waterrunoff pollution in thenearby lake and thatthere be no dust on theadjacent facilities,” hesaid. “We used plenty ofwater for dust suppres-sion and we created a re-tention pond that we col-lected the runoff water forsafe removal. Because wewere working at night, thejob was more difficult be-cause of the shadows thatthe lighting created. Justthe same, our workers
completed the job withoutany accidents. They be-came especially skilled atrecognizing the hazardsassociated with that kindof work environment.”
“We have been workingwith Disney for morethan 20 years with greatsuccess,” he said. “We
had 60 days to do the jobin this example, and wegot it done in 51 days.They were very pleasedwith our success.”

specializes in workingwith demanding clientsthat require sound anddust suppression far be-yond the current stan-dards faced by most C&Dfirms. Knightly said thathe began his nationalcompany while he was incollege, because he could
see the need for a C&Drecycling company thatexcelled at doing thingsthat were unusual by in-dustry standards. His vi-sionary thinking hasserved him well.

G r i n d e r C r u s h e r -Screen.com, well knownfor selling high qualitynew and used recyclingequipment, is proud tointroduce the Big GreenMachine Radial StackingConveyor for feeding andstock piling high volumesof mulch and soil.
The Big Green Machineis a perfect fit for the larg-er manufacturers ofmulch and soils who areaccustomed to pushingthe mulch up into hugepiles. The Big Green Ma-chine will accomplish thesame results without theneed for an additionalloader nor operator. TheBig Green Machine isequipped with a large 10-yard hopper and an extrawide 54-inch variablespeed feeder. This feederdischarges onto theheavy duty 90-foot con-veyor that can reachheights up to 47-foothigh. This unique ma-chine has power radialand hydraulic raise andlower that can be adjust-ed by the loader operatorby simply using the sup-plied remote control.
Another large applica-tion for the Big GreenMachine is to stockpileground wood as it comesoff of a wood grinder.Most radial conveyors arenot large enough to carrythe volume of mulch thata large grinder canprocess. This uniqueFeeder / Conveyor cantransport up to 500-yards per hour. Greatsavings are achieved by
not having to stock pile The Big Green Machine
can also be found loadingbarges and ships. Due tothe adjustable heightsand the radial capabili-ties, this is the perfectmachine for such an ap-plication. The conveyorwill discharge a whoppingdistance of 42-feet fromthe center of the pile tothe wheels. Continualuse is not a threat for Big
Green Machine as it isequipped with top namedequipment such as CatEngine, Dodge bearingsand Precision Idlers.
G r i n d e r C r u s h e r -SCREEN is proud to addthis unique machine toits full line of new andused recycling equip-ment. More informationcan be found atwww.GrinderCrusher-Screen.com.

company has completedprojects for hospitals, li-braries, schools, and U.S.military bases. His compa-ny has perfected methodsnecessary to meet themost rigorous demands.Whether they need to re-move lead, asbestos, orother hazardous construc-tion debris, their methodssafeguard the environ-ment and the surroundingarea of the jobsite.
For example, Knightlysaid it is always a chal-lenge when it comes to de-molishing something ascommon, yet as difficult,as a hospital operatingroom. In most cases, whilethere might be several op-erating rooms adjacent toone another in a hospitalcomplex, routinely, therooms have to be removedone at a time, while theother operating rooms arestill being used.
The same goes for thehospital patient roomswhere an older hospitalwing is being removed, ata time when patients re-main hospitalized inrooms that might be onthe other side of a com-mon wall. In each case,the strict requirementsare built into the biddingprocess, creating a chal-lenge for his company orany company receivingthe contract.
“Today, we are calledupon to meet require-ments that are far stricterthan those we have seenin the past,” he said.“When you are dealingwith PCB’s, lead, silica, orother hazardous materi-als, special care must betaken to do those jobssafely. When you are inan urban setting like weare in New England, it isimportant to be preparedfor what you may find.”
“Hospitals are 24 hourbusinesses, so you willneed to do work with lim-ited access, with littleability to assess the jobbefore hand because ofthe HEPA regulations,”he said. “It’s not like do-ing a job preview on othercommercial buildings.”
“A lot of companies donot give consideration toinfectious control,” headded. “You will be re-quired to maintain airquality control that dealswith infectious control.We do that in addition todust and noise control.”
“Noise considerationsnot only include what isgoing on inside the build-ing, but outside as well,”he said. “You will have toconsider the neighbor-hood when it comes toentering and leaving thejobsite, both externallyand internally. Avoid ele-
vator use. Plan your de-bris removal paths care-fully. Break areas need tobe given forethought aswell.” (Editor’s note: Envi-

by Jon M. CaseyFor those who attended the keynote
opening session at the C&D RecyclingForum in Ellicott City, MD, it didn’t takelong to realize that the message thatAndy Bauer was offering, was one ofconcern and veiled optimism. Bauer,economist for The Federal Reserve Bankof Richmond, VA, provided more than anhour of detailed information and fore-casts about the condition of the econo-my on a national and international level.As he offered charts and graphs of sup-porting data on the findings that hisbranch had accumulated over recentmonths, it was fascinating to see how fi-nancial experts arrive at the economicforecasts that they present. For this re-porter, it was worth attending this twoday conference, just for the opportunityto see and hear what Bauer had to sayabout the nation’s economic future.
Most of us who live and work in an en-vironment of fiscal challenges. We won-der if and when sales will begin to pickup, or if they will ever return to pre-2007levels. In some cases, we are hoping thatthe continued slide that our businesseshave seen for the past three or fouryears, will eventually end. So for many inthe room that day, Bauer seemed to bere-stating what we already knew: “Timesare difficult and they aren’t improving asquickly as we would like.” But for thoseof us who are wondering how this reces-sion came to be and how our businessesmight respond in the emerging recoverywhen it begins to happen, a presentationof this kind is invaluable.
Bauer was quick to emphasize that by
current economic standards, the reces-sion has bottomed out and that recov-ery has begun in most segments of theeconomy. However, for the constructionindustry and the industries that sup-port construction, the recovery has yetto begin. More importantly, with the re-sulting lower tax revenues generatedbecause of the absence of a full work-force, programs and funding that manyof these industries have come to relyupon are dwindling or have been elimi-nated altogether. This enhances theproblem rather than offering hope for aquicker recovery.
“Housing starts are at an all-time lowdating back to the early 1970s,” he said.“We had hoped that 2011 would be thetransition year, and 2012 would havemore robust growth. It didn’t turn outthat way. We continue to see stagnantweakness in this sector (of the economy).”
Bauer observed that Fed economistssee a continued high inventory of va-cant and foreclosed houses that needsto be worked off before the demand fornew housing begins to rise. More impor-tantly, the commercial real estate fore-cast looks similar because it follows theresidential outlook in most segments.Construction activity in the early 2000swas high, which created an inventory ofhouses that still needs to be sold. Thisnumber, about two million units, hasnot come down to any great extent sincethe end of the recession. With the addi-tion of delinquent and foreclosed homesadded into the total, the number in-creases to nearly four million units.
Bauer said that the number of people
who are able to buy new homes has de-creased because of the job market andbecause of new, stricter lending prac-tices. Accordingly, the number of peoplewho can buy new homes is much lessthan in earlier years. He said that it willtake some time before there is a sus-tained increase in new home sales.
On a similar note, he observed thatthe sectors of nonresidential construc-tion that have grown in recent years.They include manufacturing structures,mining exploration and power/commu-nication facilities. Other sectors such ashealth care, office space and other non-residential construction have declined.
On the commercial side of the real es-tate industry, there is some stabilizationhowever, with property values recoveringsomewhat from their 2009 lows. Moremoney is flowing into this sector from in-vestors, which is a favorable sign. Bauernoted that a survey of architecturalbillings has reflected an increase overthe past three years, returning to levelsthat they were at before the recessionbegan in 2007. There also appears to bean increase in construction activity,nine to twelve months out, which wouldput that construction in the fourth quar-ter of 2012 and early 2013.
Bauer concluded by saying that therecovery in the U.S. economy will be re-strained by concerns over the Europeandebt crisis and how the EuropeanUnion resolves their economic woes.Additionally, as U.S. federal, state andlocal governments deal with theirdeficits and debt concerns, it makes arecovery slower than otherwise desired.His concerns are not unfounded.
One example of what Bauer was de-scribing is how the City of Harrisburg,Pennsylvania is wrestling with their fi-nancial issues. The state legislatureagreed to take over the city’s financialmanagement in lieu of reasonable solu-
tions on the part of city management. Atthe federal level, the newly created “supercommittee” in Congress, will be underclose observation as they wrestle withchanges in policies at a federal level. Cur-rent conditions do not seem to provideenough revenue to do all that the federalgovernment has agreed to concerningmany of the current social programs.
Bauer went on to say, “2012 will be atransition year with real GDP growthbelow historical long run trends. Infla-tion will increase at moderate levels.There will be moderate consumerspending. There appears to be solidmanufacturing activity, which is sup-ported by business investment in equip-ment and software. There will also begrowth in exports.
There will be stabilization in the realestate sector, but only a modest in-crease in construction activity.”
Long term projections in the U.S.economy suggest that there will be, “sig-nificant downside risks as long as debtconcerns remain,” especially as federalspending declines.

Cherry is making it easier for Galveston County,Texas, businesses to recycle deconstruction waste.Cherry, the Houston based recycling and demolitioncompany, has just opened its fourth recycling center— the newest of which is situated in Hitchcock,Texas, just south of Houston. Together, Cherry’srecycling centers process more than a million tons ofconcrete and asphalt and thousands of tons of steelevery year. Accordingly, the company is consideredone of the biggest recyclers in the state of Texas.
The new 14 acre Hitchcock Recycling Center, locat-ed at 5402 Highway 6, accepts concrete, asphalt andresidential composition asphalt shingles for recy-cling. Cherry’s recycling center eventually, will acceptand recycle discarded tires, however until Cherry’stire recycling permit is approved, the companyaccepts and recycles tires only at its 616 AlmedaRoad Recycling Center in Houston. Cherry’s otherHouston area recycling centers are located at 6019
Crawford Road and 4601 Holmes Road. Hitchcock’s role in the area
“Our Hitchcock Recycling Center helps us betterserve customers by bringing our operations closer tothem,” says Leonard Cherry, president of Cherry.“Overall, recycling preserves the natural environmentby reducing the amount of concrete, asphalt,residential composition asphalt shingles and tiresthat are dumped in landfills and other unwantedplaces.”
Hitchcock is Cherry’s second largest recycling facil-ity. As production gets underway in Hitchcock,Cherry is temporarily crushing concrete and asphaltwith one of its portable crushers, a TEREX Pegsonjaw crusher. In addition to its primary jaw crusher,Cherry uses a Komatsu 380 secondary jaw crusher, aPower Screen Chiefton 1400, a PC 400 excavator anda WA 380 Komatsu wheel loader. Once productionvolume grows, Cherry will invest in larger, permanentcrushers for the new recycling center. Currently,
Hitchcock is capable of producing 600 tons of TexDotFlex/Base concrete, 400 tons of 3 X 5-inch concreteand 1,000 tons of 1-3/4-inch asphalt daily.
Cherry explains that an increasing number of busi-nesses today are “green friendly” because they recog-nize that recycled concrete and asphalt are suitablematerials for new roadways and other constructionprojects. An added bonus is that when contractorsuse these types of recycled materials in newconstruction, it conserves natural resources byreducing the amount of virgin materials that must bemined.
With the addition of the Hitchcock facility, Cherry’scombined daily production at its four recyclingcenters is 5,000 tons of TexDot Flex/Base, 1,500 tonsof 3 X 5-inch concrete and 5,000 tons of 1-3/4-inchasphalt.
Locating a recycling facility in Hitchcock also is agood match for new construction now underway andanticipated growth in Galveston County, according toDon Gartman, president of Galveston CountyEconomic Alliance. “Post Hurricane Ike, we’ve signifi-cant refurbishment of existing facilities, new develop-ment and an increased number of inquiries aboutbusiness expansion in Galveston County, especiallyin Hitchcock. Texas’ vibrant economy and favorabletax rates are helping fuel this new interest,” Gartmanexplains. “Growth is likely to come from petrochemi-cal, manufacturing and retail businesses. And,frequently, building these new facilities means thatolder facilities must be demolished in order to makeway.”
Cherry’s historyCherry began its operations nearly 60 years ago as
a house moving company and eventually expandedinto demolition and recycling activities. During thelast few years, the company has focused on expand-ing its recycling operations. Underscoring Cherry’scontinuing shift into the environmental arena is thefact that 50 percent of its gross volume came fromdemolition in 2006; today more than 65 percent of itsgross volume is due to recycling.
“If it weren’t for our recycling centers, much of thisdebris would simply end up in landfills —taking upspace and serving no purpose,” says Cherry. “Whenwe recycle about one million tons of concrete, thisreduces about 500,000-cubic-yards of landfill. It alsoeliminates more than $5,500,000 in tipping feescharged to dump trash at landfills and waste transferstations,” he explains.

material from demolition jobs, Cherry carefullyremoves all salvageable and historic items first, thenseparates other trash (such as roofing material)before crushing the concrete remains. Currently, thecompany estimates that it can recycle from 88 to 92percent of all materials generated from a typicalindustrial or commercial demolition project.
Cherry strives to reduce the environmental impactof all its operations. For example, the company ownsand operates one of the largest trucking fleets in thedemolition and recycling business in the Gulf Coastregion. Over the last several years, the companyreplaced its transportation vehicles with TERP enginetype vehicles that meet lower emission standards.
The company also operates three portable concretecrushers that allow it to crush concrete, asphalt andbrick directly on demolition sites and at itscustomers’ operation sites. On site recycling createsquality base material at a lower cost than that of newmaterial, plus it lowers landfill consumption andtipping fees. Even more important, on site crushingsaves on transportation costs, lowers fuel emissionsand helps reduce the need to quarry additional natu-ral aggregate.
Other green working practices include the collec-tion and recycling of cement truck residue that getsdumped into roll off washout boxes at the end ofconstruction workdays. Typically, this residue isdumped, but Cherry collects and recycles it, trans-forming this concrete waste into reusable concreteproduct.
The company’s demolition crews provide much ofthe concrete and asphalt feedstock for its recyclingoperations by demolishing industrial, commercialand residential structures and removing infrastruc-ture, such as highways, streets, bridges andrunways. Other parts of the company then transportthese materials to its recycling centers for processing.
Heading into the futureOn a local level, adding the new Hitchcock
Recycling Center, positions Cherry to serve thosecustomers south of Houston to Galveston. With moreCherry recycling centers strategically locatedthroughout this area of Texas, customers save timeand transportation costs because deconstructionwaste doesn’t have to be trucked to other, remoterecycling centers or landfills.

by Ben WheatleyLeonard Cherry, president of
Cherry recognizes the importanceof recycling C&D waste, especiallyconcrete, asphalt, steel, tires andasphalt shingles. He says that notonly is recycling these materialsprofitable, “…It’s simply the rightthing to do as a socially responsiblecompany. Recycling is a growingindustry — even in a down econo-my,” he says. “As the cost of secur-ing virgin materials goes up, recy-cling becomes even more attrac-tive.”
Cherry says that the need formore recycling centers is evidentbecause building generated wasteis on the rise in the U.S. In 2003,the Environmental ProtectionAgency estimated that approxi-mately 164,000 million tons ofbuilding generated waste is gener-ated in the U.S. annually, of whichnine percent is construction waste,38 percent is renovation waste and53 percent is demolition debris.
He notes that Cherry’s wideranging resources and financial
strength, coupled with one of thelargest fleets of specialized equip-ment and trucks in the Gulf Coast,positions it to handle projects ofnearly any size in more than half ofthe United States. Likewise, heviews material generated from ademolition project as a raw productfirst and then as a waste stream ifthe material cannot be recycled.Since the company began “recy-cling” houses to new locations,Cherry says he has been lookingfor new applications for the typesof concrete and asphalt materialthose materials generate in largevolumes.
For Cherry and other recyclers inTexas, one of the major break-throughs in recycling aggregatesand asphalt materials came in themid-90s. That was when the TexasDept. of Transportation authorizedthe use of recycled concrete as anacceptable substitute for naturalaggregate. This meant the crushedconcrete from Cherry and otherrecycling companies could be putto good use in roadbeds instead of
being discarded in local landfills.Since then, asphalt recycling hasbecome another important processat Cherry. Once old asphalt isremoved from streets and road-ways, the material is processed ata recycling center for use in road-way construction.
A more recent innovation hasbeen Cherry’s recycling of residen-tial composition asphalt shinglesfor use in roadways. Another con-sideration is a focus on alternativefuels where discarded automobileand truck tires are becoming aresource as alternative fuelsources. “Added benefits to shingleand tire recycling include its cost— cheaper than virgin materials —and the fact that recycled shingleand tire materials helps increasethe longevity of roads,” Cherrysays. “These materials last thesame or even longer than virginmaterials.” For more informationon the Cherry Companies, contactthem at 800-444-1123 or online atwww.cherrycompanies.com.
