Crusher vs 2 years of Stockpile
“We had two years of leftover concrete that was brought back to the plant.”
Jeff McAfee, Lake Oconee, Georgia
What happens when you are left with an extreme amount of leftover concrete, costly and slow crushing services? The Solution: You must find an immediate and cost-effective alternative such as MB Crusher to crush and recycle leftover construction waste.
Jeff McAfee from Fowler Flemister Concrete encountered the same situation when a massive amount of concrete—the equivalent of two years—was returned to his plant. Jeff needed a quick solution to get rid of the concrete, so he hired a crushing service as his first option. However, this proved ineffective and was exceptionally expensive. “We hired a crusher to come in here, and he was here for four months. What we paid him, we thought we might could do it cheaper ourselves,” says Jeff.
Jeff sought out different options to crush leftover concrete. Just at the right time, he received an MB Crusher brochure in the mail. Jeff took the brochure to his boss to start the customer journey of discovering the many options MB Crusher provides for customers. As a result, Fowler Flemister Concrete purchased the BF 80.3 Crusher Bucket.

Jeff operates the BF 80.3 Crusher Bucket to transform his Caterpillar 320E into a mobile recycling center. Customers like Fowler Flemister Concrete can crush concrete onsite and recycle the crushed concrete as aggregate or new construction materials. Thus, turning an abundance of waste to a reusable product. When asked if the BF 80.3 Crusher Bucket has been beneficial for their business, “Oh, definitely, Oh, definitely,” stated Jeff.
Currently, Fowler Flemister Concrete breaks down the concrete to 4 inches. “Eventually, we’ll probably go down to the smallest size, which will be your fives and sevens, size stone,” said Jeff.
Jeff then explains Fowler Flemister Concrete’s plans for recycling their leftover concrete for their seven different concrete plants.
“We’ll go to each one and more or less, left over concrete they’ve got, and then crush it like we’re doing here, stockpile it, and the resale it.”
