Boulware Equipment Helps Crate Services in Lakeland, FL Eliminate Wood Waste and Achieve Landfill Avoidance

At Boulware Equipment LLC, we specialize in helping manufacturing and industrial companies around the world reduce costs, improve efficiency, and operate more sustainably through our wood waste recycling and dust collection systems. Each of our installations is a 100% turn-key solution — designed, engineered, and built to fit the specific needs of the client.

One of our recent projects with Crate Services in Lakeland, FL showcases how our systems can completely transform how a company handles wood waste, helping them achieve full landfill avoidance and turn waste into profit.


The Challenge: Reducing Wood Waste and Landfill Costs

As a busy industrial packaging and crating company, Crate Services in Lakeland, Florida generates large volumes of wood scraps and wood trash each day. Disposing of this material was both costly and inefficient, with valuable space and money being lost to landfill hauling fees.

Crate Services wanted a solution that would reduce its landfill costs, streamline waste handling, and make its wood waste recycling process more sustainable — all without adding to the company’s workload. That’s when they partnered with Boulware Equipment LLC.


The Solution: Cresswood Grinder and Boulware Wood Trash Elimination System

To help Crate Services meet its goals, Boulware Equipment installed a high-performance Cresswood industrial grinder paired with our custom Boulware Wood Trash Elimination System. This powerful, automated setup was engineered to handle large volumes of wood waste efficiently, safely, and profitably.

Here’s how the system works:

  • Wood scraps and pallet remnants are fed directly into the Cresswood grinder, eliminating manual labor.

  • The grinder processes and breaks down the wood waste into clean, consistent material.

  • Built-in technology automatically separates metal from the wood, ensuring a high-quality recycled product.

  • The processed wood trash is then conveyed into a waiting truck trailer, ready to be hauled off and sold.

Instead of paying to dispose of wood scraps, Crate Services now earns money from its recycled material — achieving complete landfill avoidance while running a cleaner, more efficient operation.


A 100% Turn-Key System

At Boulware Equipment, we pride ourselves on delivering turn-key systems that cover every step of the process. For the Crate Services Lakeland, FL installation, we handled everything — from initial concept and planning to engineering, fabrication, and installation.

We also manage the outsourcing and sale of the processed wood waste, so our clients can focus on what they do best while we handle the logistics. With Boulware, it’s not just about installing equipment — it’s about delivering a complete solution that makes financial and operational sense.


Service, Maintenance, and Long-Term Performance

Our job doesn’t end once the system is installed. Boulware Equipment LLC provides full service and maintenance support to keep every Cresswood grinder and Boulware recycling system running at full efficiency.

For Crate Services, our technicians perform routine maintenance, inspections, and component replacements to ensure peak performance. This proactive approach not only extends the life of the equipment but also protects the company’s investment — keeping their system operating like new year after year.


The Results: Savings, Sustainability, and Smarter Operations

Today, Crate Services in Lakeland, FL has completely eliminated landfill disposal costs for its wood waste. The Cresswood grinder and Boulware Wood Trash Elimination System have streamlined production, reduced clutter, and turned what was once an expense into a steady revenue stream.
