- I found out Some guys are making $4,000 per day running a mobil crusher. It's a high demand and low supply industry, one guy bought a new machine and 2 months later added a second machine. Here is their stories

I enjoyed all the info here! Another cool video 👍 keep em coming!!
You got it!
Very interesting video Stan. thanks for sharing. These make a lot of sense to help recycle and turn the stuff you haul off as waste into something more productive or just $$$. I saw one many years ago on a construction site in South florida, they were crushing the coral rock and bedrock into materials for the condo they were building. The GC said it was saving them big $$$ in material and hauling cost.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching !
Most demo sites in the UK crush the concrete and masonry. It's usually left on site for the main contractor to use for sub base, or piling mats for the piling rigs to travel on and work from. Any landfill is charged a Landfill Tax of £91.35 (2020 price), per ton! Most sites boast a 90% plus recycling rate for timber, metals, plastics and rubble.
I used to operate a toggle jaw crusher for a company in the UK.
Great machine if the material going in is clean and the excavator driver loading it knows what he's doing.
One job, they fed it just lifted reinforced slab concrete, no pre processing. I spent most of my time dragging out balls of steel mesh jammed in the conveyor. Luckily it didn't rip the conveyor belt, expensive repair.
Best jobs I was on my own, I'd feed and clear it with a 13 or 20 ton excavator. I had control of what went in, and knew what the crusher could or couldn't do. It was productive, with little or no down time and kept the number of operators near the work zone to a minimum.
Thank you for the comments Neil and thanks for viewing !
Great idea,I was a Redi-mix driver and everyone with a mixer plant has a issue with washout after a period of time,it builds up taking up space in the yard and wash out pit .crushed concrete makes good fill for many applications,and a portable plant is the answer.good find Stan !
Great tip!
Thanks Stan. I have been looking at agraget screeners as well as crushers for about a year now as well as hollow block making machines. Should have asked if screens are fixed or interchangeable for different size agraget.
Great video....Happy Thanksgiving
This was very interesting. Thanks for sharing. 🍺
Glad you enjoyed it
Really enoyed this video, hope you got more from con expo and lookin forward to watching them.
That's the plan
Very interesting, loving the content.
Glad to hear it, thanks Demond!
im always looking to do another start up so all the videos on tools and equipment is very helpful i wish you could put some numbers on the equipment
Glad the vids are helpful, thanks for watching !
@@Dirtmonkey what i love about your channel is that i just started watching you about a year ago and now that ive been laid off i really enjoy watching all the older videos because i was that person back in the early 90s i wish i had stayed with the lawncare part i really enjouyed pleasing the customers and making sure everything looked the way i would want it done as a customer .
spell check sucks
How did you make this interesting?! Excellent interview, you asked the questions which made this thoroughly interesting. Well done mate
Wow, thank you. I was worried about it at first but also thought it was interesting at the same time.
@@Dirtmonkey I have to say Stanley, you have got a winning formula. Your experience shines through and the editing is fabulous. All round great package. Thank you for taking the time to respond. Go get em.
This is a great product I have been trying to get the utility company I work for to get one of these machine for 15 years. We could have saved millions . Upper management can not think outside the box.
If it's not their idea they don't want anything to do with it.
Takes specific project needs and circumstances to make using a crusher economical in the field.
That’s what I’ve been doing for the last 5-6 years. All I did prior was lot clearing and grading. I very rarely do any grading anymore unless it’s a favor for a friend or a small weekend project. Went from 12 employees to just my boss, myself and a part time guy
Always up to see videos on new technologies and machines.
everyone in this video was very well spoken! I have a stock pile of concrete & another pile of soil from my excavating jobs. We charge the customer to take the aggregates away, Which will eventually pay for a rental of a screener /crusher, so we can resell the products! Im very impressed that one guy took down a hotel & sold the concrete without having too move it :O
In my area b/w Bakersfield and Fresno CA instead of crushers I've been trying to get my boss to get a grinder/ recycler for trees/ green waste and construction debris. We have many thousands of acres of orchards (walnuts, almonds, oranges, lemons, etc) and every so often the trees wear out and need to be replaced. The company's that are in the area the remove/ grind orchards are at least 6 month behind on work, so we could easily get jobs and we already have the rest of the equipment we just need the grinder. 🤔 but a crusher might not be bad either at $4,000 a day.
Ron Garafolo does all of our Crushing. He’s a great guy. Rubblemaster is a fantastic product.
Breeding recycling holand
As a landscaping contractor I found that very interesting, could you do another video on investment, cost etc. Thanks
Maybe- Id have to find someone that knows that stuff better than I do.
Stanley "Dirt Monkey" Genadek would make for an excellent video, think it would get a great response based on the other comments! Keep the vids coming!💪🏻
@arialshotts shoot me an e-mail at rene.wagner@rubblemaster.com. I can send you a video on that.
Like the info get a lot of good info from you thanks
You bet, thanks Dave !
That was interesting as hell man. :)
Hey, thanks!
I'm a builder-welder,would love to built one of those crushers.
Yes Stan more on mobile crushers and crusher buckets thank you great information Mahalos
More to come!
You can make $4000 a day and the next day break the rotor shaft on a chunk of metal and spend $30,000 repairing it. Crushing is not a cash cow.
samething as owning a asphalt milling machine
when you buy a crusher that should make 200 ton per hour,you can figure half of that line of BS unless your recycling sand and gravel,LOL
You need at least a half hour to check things over or lubrication every day or twice everyday depending on material
Keeping up with your dailies is probably the most important thing with any crusher. How often do you need to lube your Sandvik? Our plants have a 50-hour lube schedule.
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS I hit ours every 40 hours
That was interesting Stan. Curious about what the initial investment would be to purchase a mobile crushing unit, and what are the other costs associated with it? Wear and tear parts, service technicians? Good video Stan.
Good questions but I don't have good answers for them. sorry.
You alao need excavator and prob loader
Hi George, The investment cost depends on the size of the machine. I would look at your materials and how much they are worth and reverse engineer the right size machine from there. Operating costs are marginal compared to the investment costs. You will need an excavator and an operator to feed the plant. You possibly need to account for a hammer or pulverizer to pre-process materials. Feel free to reach out to us anytime at 219-241-3820 or at sales@rubblemaster.com for a free consultation. #KeepCrushing
My boss has a rm300. It's number 7 on the production line. It's broke down more than it runs. It's temperamental. It has a mind of its own. One day it will crush with no problems and one day you might not get a function to work go to lunch come back and it self heals and works. I know it has to make him money but I know it cost a lot to keep it going belts are not cheep. Anything that shakes and vibrates its self to death is going to cost.
Good stuff!!
Thanks a lot Stan !
Powescreen if you're gonna be crushing 100 tonne plus a day. Worked in demolition for years rubble masters etc are just breakdown after breakdown
Love this video always looking for new revenue opportunities.
Buy one Stan. Send it to Australia then I will operate it and shift it. The you can claim business expense to travel here. Just Joking. Aussie Jeff
Awesome video bro I live it
I'm glad you like it
Great video.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nothing glamorous about it... i run a Mobile crusher ... you need a excavator with a breaker on it as well...
This is awesome !
Thanks a lot Bryce !
Audio was a bit weird at the start on just the right. Informative video 👍
Sorry about that
Need more snow plow for me thanks 😊 keep up the good work cool
Thanks 👍
Mobil crusher? I don't get it, do they only crush Mobil One filters or something?
Sran, I first used one about 15 years ago on a job site to produce backfill for a retaining wall that was 16,000 sq. ft. Our contract had us using on site backfill approved by a structural engineer. The onste material that was given to us had too much clay. We discovered that the site had bank run but the size was out of spec. Running it thru a on site crusher and setting the grates to produce clean CA-7 stone and CA-6 stone saved the general contractor about $200,000 over trucking in new gravel backfill. We could have saved more but the bank run ran out at the last 4 lifts of block.
Ive done something similiar- making my own backfill from onsite soils after screening it. Kind of cool to do
geez, was hoping to see more of the machine, grrrrr
Check out the walk-around video: czcams.com/video/IOZoaE8sEDs/video.html
Those things are awesome!!
I think so too
Mobile crushing is nothing new at least not in the 1980's in the Chicago area.
A large heavy equipment manufacturer was downsizing their operation and sold alot of their property to a mall developer. All concrete flatwork and structures were crushed on-site and used for the new mall.
There were also crushing plants that charged by the ton to take other contractors debris.
Awesome thank you very interesting
Glad you enjoyed it
they're not "making" 4 k a day they bill 4k a day
Good point. For one guy in an excavator plus the crusher still a good outcome...
This guy really makes 4K a day I live in jersey
@@USER-nj7nn LOL just because you live in Jersey doesn't mean you know what that guy actual makes! thats like saying bill clinton isn't a gangster because you live in Kansas
Matthew Hensley He had a lot for two crushers
You are correct,add excavator to feed it,conveyor to move finished product ,scale for the sale of product,endloader to load product 4 employees to run all that and mowinglawn is still more lucrative!!
You better be good at fixing things if you’re going to run a crusher
Tyson Walsh especially a impactor
Exactly, you better hope it's clean concrete, asphalt, etc. Nice chuck of rebar does wonders for a crusher $$$$$$$$$$$
You got it, high wear impacts
@@kristoffMR you can't feed a crusher like a dump truck... A dump and go mentality will get you in trouble, downtime and high maintenance costs. At the end of the day, a crusher needs some TLC and an operator who cares.
warranty work!!!!
Do you understand the overall cost of running a crusher in perfect conditions ???
Can you check if your videos have audio to both channels? Maybe listen with earbuds? It's really uncomfortable to listen to when you just have one side and it happens in a lot of your videos. If you only have one side just double it so we at least get sound in both ears
What is the crusher material used for ?
Went to ConExpo 3 years ago specifically to look at crushers. Still haven't decided if it's a business I want to venture into but there are very few around me that do it.
Hi Brandon, sounds like this market is still in its infancy in your area. What level of mobility and service do other crushing contractors offer in your area?
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS, they have large machines that require permits to move every time (I believe). The one outfit doesn't even do custom crushing unless they can keep the material because they have a buyer for it. I'm looking at the very small units (a step up from a bucket crusher) not to compete with the big outfits but to offer quick in and out service on small jobs.
@@bjepple82, I deal with this class of machines. The mobile compact market is overlooked in many areas and highly profitable. If you want we can have a brief chat to determine if this doesn't make sense or if there is a viable self-sustaining profit center for you. Feel free to reach out to me anytime at rene.wagner@rubblemaster.com or via 219-241-3820. I can send you also the full recording of our Crushing 101 educational panel discussion.
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS I'd love to get the Crushing 101 information. I sent you an email. You may want to check your junk/spam folder as my emails often end up there.
Yes it is keep them coming
Will do Matthew, thank you for watching !
Why is there no audio it's happening on a few I've watched now do you do this for a reason or ?
... you're probably not praying enough.
Very nice machine
The audio with the interviewing is only left channel
Ah, that's why I cant hear anything...
I’ll like to know when are the events celebration?
Very interesting!
Glad you liked it, thanks for watching !
Just the machines start around 4-500,000.00 and that's basic.. then you need it delivered... I did find a smaller (Rino/Jaws) type for about 45,000.00 ( I could haul on standard tandom trailer) ... small jobsite use.. doesn't include maintenance, training (or finding a good operator)..
Stay Safe
This is a step-up over the Rino/jaws type, this has magnet for rebar/steel
czcams.com/video/IgK-X3yO2TU/video.html
Curious what the initial investment is on one of those ? I don't know of anyone who does mobile on site crushing in my area....Great Video Stan! Got me thinking.
600,000 used
Roughly what our company paid... crusher had about 600hours and screenplant 1,000 hours
You and me both- Im thinking they run 1/2 million or so? But don't qoute me on it.
Hi Michael, it is a misperception that crushers are half a million to a million. At this price you are probably at a quarry / high production size machine. We offer a whole bandwidth of machines and you can get started crushing & recycling for much less. At the end of the day, it depends on what you want to achieve. It is similar to dozers - do you want to push a little or a lot. We have everything from a D4 to a D10. Feel free to reach out to me at 219-241-3820 or at rene.wagner@rubblemaster.com.
I actually have been considering getting into the Recycling and Reclamation side of construction.
Maybe this helped out?
Hi Don, we will share the video of the entire panel discussion with a select group of people. If you want to see it send me an e-mail at rene.wagner@rubblemaster.com.
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS thank you
Good questions you asked 👍
Thank you 😊
Fascinating

What company makes these
My friend had to crush old railroad ramp that was made of concrete. He would have to pay to get rid of it. He lend crusher for cheap money. The crushing guy asked kow money but he statet he takes steel from rebars. He made fuckton money off that steel. My friend used that crushed concrete as stabilisation for the new ramp he was making at same place (new one had asphalt on top) saving on new stabilisation. And taking earth that was removed to make space for concrete and sold it. He saved on dumping. He saved on new concrete. He earned on selling earth. This side job changed into super lucrative.
This is a entire different ball game. Time to separate the men from the boys.
I could see this crushing bedrock scrapings on a gold claim..
you pay a lot of money to have a package that small. on a claim you set up a plant that does the same thing but is bolted down to the ground over 200' and you'll pay 1/4 the price and have half the maintenance issues
Takes money to make money. These machines have to recycle a material that engineers get paid to make last forever. Better have some pretty deep pockets to get into crushing concrete or milling asphalt. Been watching it for 20 years
Well said. You are taking materials apart that were never meant to come apart.
Yes it sure is we sub contract the work out for now too.
When was these filmed Stan social distance and all happening now please be safe
Ours is Sandvik.... i like these because they are more low profile but they are kinda small...
@Jeff Schwab correct! Sandvic bought extec
@Jeff Schwab yes been telling my boss to get a cone but its like talking to a brick wall.... and they keep using those damn cable splice belts vs a vulcanized one... just plain aggravating...
@Jeff Schwab been telling him to get a stacker 5 years ago... apparently stacking 3 million ton with a 25 ton loader made more sense to them
there is no sound in the video!
Crushing it
Great stuff Stan. As a structural foundation repair contractor, I'm always hauling old block, concrete, stone and dirt out and stone back in. I would love to know how much, what's the financing period they offer and does Rubblemaster offer deals like CAT, JD, New Holland and other heavy equipment manufacturers do to get you in the door on there product.
Good questions- hopefully they can answer them.
Wish I had one at my job. My crusher is old and my belts are all beat up.
I live in Alabama and haul millings to asphalt plants. It is cutting the surface of asphalt from roads. They have mountains of milled asphalt but they call in companies like this one and is done in a week. The work down here is covered. Don't come to Alabama!!!!
ya i worked 6 yrs for northwest recycling ,portland auto wreaking,pacific car crushing, its one business ,one owner 6 crushers and 8 trucks to haul car bodys to main recycling plant (shreader plant) and price is always different cause price changes , we had to crush cars one time sun up to sun down to get the good price on crushed iron because price was going to drop and we did it ,around 80,000 in one week for the owner and he was very happy , he bought us pizza !! for all 6 of us see what a nice guy LOL #$%^&*(
I’m very interesting to be participating!!!! Please any answer!?
How! Slow with those vids, can't keep up watching them!
They gross $4 000 per day. That is not the same as net.
NICE! Thanks!
Even if they are paying the operator $500/day and allocating $1500 towards the machine and maintenance, etc, and also lets say $750 in overhead - that's still $1250 net per day. Pretty decent money. And all of these figures are throwing darts.
No way the guy would buy a second machine 6 months later if he was not making good money.
and you only use front end loaders to crush and we brought our own 544 john deer tool carriers
Come and listen to this: silent interviews
Any small excavating contractor here in the northeast could profit with a small machine like this.
Agreed. The cost of disposal and hauling won't go away unless you own a crusher.
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS Yeah and you can use the product and the fines on the job some where. Drains, driveway sub base, ect.
@@hudsonhawk0016 exactly. Even if you don't need the crushed product on the job you would be at least hauling profit... Somebody is always in the market for a good base or fill product...
@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS definitely.
Just thinking you could crush enough concrete to fill the Fox Swamp at home you wouldn't get wet and muddie boots. PS. I think the Fox would hate it as well. Aussie Jeff
Thanks for the comments Jeff !
How much is the average costs to buy?
That RM120 I bet is about six hundred K. At about four grand for the day, could be more, it would take 150 days to pay it off. I bet you would get five years out of that thing. Very interesting if you have a crew, land, and equipment and want more business.
agreed
It depends on the size of the machine. It is a misperception that all crushers are half a million and more. We offer a bandwidth of machines. At the end of the day, it depends on how much you would like to crush... Many of our customers pay for their crusher by just crushing a few days out of the month...
this is a very voltiale business to get into... not as easy as some make it out to be.. definately need to do your homework on what your going to be crushing and what machine your looking into.. dont go cheap or you will regret it
idk 4k a day is not the greatest when you consider the overhead thats paying for at least 2 guys moving the machine and paying payments on a multi million dollar machine. those margins start closing up real quick
good, keep thinking small...
Chris, same thing I was thinking. You have about $1,000 per day in labor and another $500 in the mobilization of the machine. Add fuel, maintenance, insurance and
equipment payments....you’re probably around $500 above cost per day.
Mobilization typically comes on top of your crushing rate. RUBBLE MASTER crushers are much easier to move and set up than any other crusher on the market. One guy can set up and operate a RUBBLE MASTER crusher. It takes you 15 min from trailer to crushing.
Recycling is pretty saturated and not easy to get into even if you have the money.
So basically, they crush concrete into gold?
Yes- kind of!
@Jeff Schwab
There's a company near me that builds screening plants. So a lot of people around here have them, and inevitably a lot of parts end up on Craigslist. I've seen just the Jaws for a Crusher for sale for 50K.
I always had the concept in my head of throwing rocks in a wood chipper. I'd imagine it's not that bad, but I'm sure the maintenance is terrible..
Thats.gotta be a 500000 machine
Seems like your getting a new toy Stan

This is actually something I’ve considered getting into for a few years now to try get into crushing for our rural municipalities where they want like 150 thousand yards per year

@@RUBBLEMASTERAMERICAS I only have 120k right now and would like to get in the business im in Nebraska
Fix your left/right balance Stan....
A big crusher can produce $60,000 of 6” minus in a day. That’s in Hawaii
I run a rm 90 everyday. And the company i work for charges by the ton crushed and we have a min tonnage. We must hit and if the pile does not meet that the price goes up. So these guys charging 4000 a day seams hi
Kameron Wiechert he says he charges by the ton in the interview but he said it usually ends up billing by the day and he gives them a flat rate for the job based on how many days for their stack of material.
Cool
Thanks for watching Carl !
Crushed a lot of rock, between the crusher, excavator, loader at 4000 a day you might profit 500 with no breakdowns ...don’t get me wrong some jobs you can make a fortune, but everyone wants it crushed for nothing. It’s all about how many tons you can crush a day, and to do that you need a much bigger crusher . In the Northwest it’s by the ton. Lucky to get 4-5 per ton, better be crushing 1200 tons a day minimum. Oh and they are a maintenance nightmare and you need to make state spec rock .
Good point. The question is what is included in the $4k a day - loader, prep, mobilization, a.s.o. If you run a mid-size machine on smaller jobs and you might process somewhere between 600-800 tons per day this brings you up to $5- $6.5 per ton.
RUBBLE MASTER AMERICAS CORP agreed , I would love to buy a small crusher where I could go to job sites and crush, in Central Oregon we have rock everywhere and it costs so much to haul in, if I could crush onsite for 8-10 a ton I would make a fortune and save guys 10 per ton. Just need a mini crusher that makes 800 tons a day...
neet stuff.....borrow from my ex-wife, she’s got all my money........
Nice
Thanks
NO VOLUME!!
I wish you asked them what they cost.
Hi Jason, everybody wants to know the initial investment cost which is understandable. However, there are numerous different crusher types and sizes out there. Generally speaking, the bigger the machine the more money - similar to dozers and loaders. There are highly compact solutions our there and behemoth million-dollar crusher train setups. If you want a crusher to process your own material it is a simple debit and credit calculation. In the first step we would look at your current material processes before we select the type and size of equipment. Once we know that, we can then look into specific equipment options, operating costs, and financing. From this point on you can determine if this makes sense for your business or not. Somebody in this thread mentioned you gotta spend money to save money. If you want to know more feel free to reach out to me at 219-241-3820 or at rene.wagner@rubblemaster.com
