Windrow Turning
Our windrow turning service accelerates composting by aerating organic materials like leaves and grass. Using advanced machinery, we ensure uniform mixing and microbial activity, reducing volume by 50% while minimizing odors. This process creates high-quality compost for agricultural and landscaping applications.
Tub Grinding
Tub grinding services process stumps, logs, and tree trunks into mulch or biomass. Mobile grinders allow on-site processing, supported by excavators and loaders for efficiency. Ideal for land clearing, debris removal, and recycling organic materials into reusable products.

Screening
Our screening services separate compost, asphalt, concrete, and street sweepings using trommel and flat deck screens. This process recovers reusable materials, reduces waste, and ensures quality control for construction, landscaping, and recycling projects.
