Medium sized shredders

Hi all 

We do alot of ragging out of bushes for our local council, usually this is the stuff you wouldn't want to chip, pyracantha, cotoneater, with a few small roots in and bits of rubbish. 

Currently we just shove it all in a bin and green waste it which is expensive and you can't get a lot of volume in a bin and its a pita to load. 

A quick google will find me a mahoosive shredder for 1000's of tonnes a hour or a daisy mincer for your back garden, and nothing in-between the timberwolf jobby is not big enough. 

Is there something on the market which can be loaded by a 3-5 digger but easily transportable. 

In my head I'm imagining a shredding machine with a belt feed, about 3-5tonne 200hp  ideally conveyor eject so as not to atomize any nasties in the brush. 

 

cheers 

James

Last time I went to the chemist for 'a big pot of vaseline ', I felt she gave me a filthy look, so I had to explain that it was it fill a pump to get it to suck better, I was digging a whole new hole and left with my purchase and reddened cheeks.....

Hmm. I seen a several over the years. Cost/benefits ratio will tell you that expectations and reality are vastly different. 

 

'Yard' machines mean that trucks are bringing rubbish to the yard to be processed which costs.....bums on seats, fuel, small loads etc.....then there is disposal costs, are you filling skips that cannot go to burn or are they going to costly landfill?

 

That kind of disposal is a cost per tonne equation before an ethical cost, so landfill costs are met instead....
