We've got a crusher coming in next Monday to deal with 400 ton of concrete bits we've got piled up. I'll take me camera into work I think.

Darren,
The company below hire a crusher, can't remember which make/model, however I never really clicked with the bloke renting it, he was keen to quote for doing the job rather than rental but took weeks to pitch up and quote. For one days hire he was about the same price as Dan's machine (which I ended up hiring) he wanted a lot to hire it and still charged delivery (if though local) Vs dans cheaper hire cost (but understandable) high delivery cost. If i had slipped into a second days crushing Dan's would have been considerably cheaper, plus Dan was a member of Brew cabin and a very professional chap to deal with.

All our surface course tarmac for tommorrow (50t) is on hold till told, the weather forecast is crap, yet again.

I'm sick to death of getting soaked, it's happening on a daily basis. Had enough.

Just coming back with a few bits of (hopefully) useful information:

Firstly, owing to a few inevetable component price rises, the current price of the BAVTRAK 025 is £39,000 + VAT.

Secondly, here is a listing of UK hire locations for BAVs & BAVTRAKS:
http://www.bavcrushers.co.uk/hire.htm

The eagle-eyed will spot that Keith Maiden does, in fact, hire out BAVTRAKs. He's kind of not wrong about the larger crushers being more 'operated' than self-drive. I can take some contractors a good few hours to really get the best from any of the larger mini crushers and, even with competant plant guys, a degree of 'hand holding' for the intitial hire often pays dividends. Obviously some bozos think that mini crushers will crush 'anything' and hirers tired of clearing wooden fenceposts/steel girders/gummed-up tarmac/dead livestocketc. from their mini crushers are often understandably reticent about self-drive to crusher newbies!

There aren't yet any 025's in the Lancs area (it's worth checking our 'hire' link for updates though), but one of our customers, P J Jackson Plant Hire in Cheshire did have a Guidetti (I think) and they're on 01625 829248.

Anybody looking to hire a 3.5 ton Komplet as mentioned by Ambient, we run a fleet of them from our Midlands base, and can deliver nationwide. We can also offer compact screeners for hire.

Glad everybody seems to agree about Rhino's... we couldnt get rid of ours fast enough! Feed belt on the Komplet machines makes life so much easier and quicker!

Hired in an impact crusher last Monday.

Very impressed - it could handle material as fast as it could be loaded into the hopper by a 7t machine.

Large stockpile of crushed concrete ensued!

By the time we'd finished......

Side view

It was producing material at the rate of 45tons/hr, we ended up processing about 350 ton. Very little dust, albeit a little noisy but not too bad.

If anybody wants the details of the outfit, I'll gladly pass them on. This is one of their smaller machines apparently.

Looks like a rubble master machine. Reputed to be very good

What output setting did you have it on?

What is the cost for a day inc. transport out of interest?

It pays for itself because you now have a huge pile of crushed to feed from whenever you need it!

The stuff by the gates look more like soil to me? ???

Nope, that's not soil - it's a small heap of the dreaded p-word......
