sorry to go on, so do yours handle rebar etc? and they dont mind brick and plaster etc bit of wood in there. yeah hook lift shouldn't be a problem do you know anyone running one of the rm6 or rubble busters what did yo used to charge for daily rate on these?
whats the hopper size can you load with a 13 tonner or to much in one bucket full? better with say our 8 tonner.
the big crusher would be good but it'll an under the radar job haha, and it'll cost us i reckon about 500 to move it there and back on low loader.

Hi first post, but watch for a while, and have used a crusher from in the Derbyshire Peaks it was very good and the best I have tried Rubble Master RM 60 a lot better and quicker than the rest.

rm60 you can load either with 8 or 13 tonner, no probs. impact crushers will always be more expensive than jaw crushers cos of wear costs as mentioned earlier. we used to charge 490/day, and would do about 250 tonnes per day. never made much at this rate cos of costs of running it, but market wont pay much more than this, hence got rid. also impactors tend to give an aggregate with lots of fines in which a lot of people dont like... can be too many fines if crushing bricks etc.
all crushers will handle rebar; its the conveyors that can take a hammering. our smaller crushers will crush reinforced, but cust signs a waiver: shred a belt and it is charged. has to be done on the smaller machines as belts 450 + vat a time, plus fitting and downtime.
giles i would reccommend you look for a rimec moby for this job, would be the perfect crusher. dont know who has one (sorry) but they are spot on and would be just the right size for you. failing that samco's baughans hookloader is a good machine, we use it regularly. not sure they would travel to cheshire though, you'd have to ask.
