Quarry services
Introduction
Some aggregate quarries want to add Rip Rap, Armour Stone and/or other large aggregates to the portfolio of products for their sales force and customers. Others want to rid the quarry of oversize material via Rip Rap sales, or breaking the rock down for the primary crusher. Some Dimension Stone quarries would like to do something with cumbersome reject piles. Rip Rap, Armour Stone and breaking oversize is what we do very well. In most cases, at a lessor overall cost than owning the machines and employing the people to do it inhouse. Because it's all we do, our efficiency is second to none and our cost to you is incremental. The products are on gradation; your associates can concentrate on your core business activities; and our knowledge of oversize applications can provide new customers and markets.
We carry our own MSHA Contractor ID Number; and work with the quarry to insure that our safety standards meet or exceed their own.
