Boulware Equipment Helps Anniston, AL Company Eliminate Landfill Costs with Cresswood XR700-150

At Boulware Equipment LLC, we know that for many manufacturers, wood waste isn’t just a byproduct — it’s a cost center. Disposal fees, labor, and wasted material can add up quickly, eating into profits. That’s why we specialize in 100% turn-key wood waste recycling systems and industrial grinder solutions that transform wood trash into an opportunity for savings and even revenue.

A recent project in Anniston, AL highlights exactly what we do best.

The Problem: Rising Wood Trash Costs

Our customer in Anniston was dealing with high disposal costs due to an ever-growing stream of wood scraps coming from their production process. Every week, they were paying substantial landfill fees to haul away their wood waste. This was both a financial burden and an operational headache — and it was clear that they needed a smarter, more sustainable solution.

The Solution: A Powerful Grinder and Flexible Recycling System

To tackle the problem, we designed and installed a Cresswood XR700-150 wood shredder paired with a full Boulware Wood Waste Recycling System.

At the heart of the system is the industrial grinder, which reduces wood scraps into uniform material and automatically separates any metal from the wood. This ensures a clean, consistent product that’s ready for resale or reuse.

We also provided the company with two output options for maximum flexibility:

• Blow the processed wood waste directly into a truck for quick and easy loading.

• Drop the material into the top of an open trailer, making it simple to handle larger loads.

Once the wood is processed, it is hauled away and sold, creating a complete landfill avoidance solution.

Turn-Key Installation and Ongoing Management

One of the key reasons our customers choose Boulware is that we provide 100% turn-key service. For this Anniston project, we handled everything:

• Planning & Engineering – Designing a system tailored to the customer’s space and output.

• Installation & Integration – Delivering a seamless, efficient setup.

• Ongoing Waste Management – Coordinating the collection, hauling, and selling of the processed wood waste.

This hands-off approach allowed the company to focus on production while we managed their waste stream.

The Results: Big Savings Through Recycling

Thanks to the new Cresswood XR700-150 grinder and Boulware recycling system, the Anniston facility is no longer throwing money away with landfill fees. Their wood trash is now processed, metal-free, and monetized. What was once a costly problem is now a streamlined, profitable process.

At Boulware Equipment LLC, we’re proud to deliver solutions that help companies in Anniston, AL, and around the world achieve true landfill avoidance, cleaner facilities, and stronger bottom lines. If your operation is paying to dispose of wood scraps, we can design a turn-key grinder system to turn your waste into savings — and maybe even profit.
