Georgia Recycler Changes Fleet to JCB In addition to being The Fruitcake Capital of The World, Claxton, Ga., also is the home of Continental Cable Recycling (CCR), a recycling center and its sister company Custom Waste Rolloff Services, a container roll-off service. The family owned businesses were founded by Forrest Conder, first CCR in 1982, followed by Custom Waste in 2008. Working as one company, CCRCustom Waste rents roll-off containers and swaps them out as needed and the company also handles complete waste and metal recycling needs for industrial customers on a regular basis. Products are separated and processed down for delivery straight to end users without needing another recycler. Plastics are run through an SSI shredder and a granulator on site and are shipped out in a regrind form to an end user. CCR-Custom Waste also works with the Evans County waste transfer station, in which CCR-Custom Waste has the contractual agreement to run the transfer station. At the transfer station, CCR-Custom Waste oversees separating garbage from the wood and metal recyclables. The wood products are processed at the transfer station with the use of a Morbark 1000 tub grinder. The metal, cardboard, plastics and all other recyclables are then transported three miles to the CCR-Custom Waste scrap yard. Roll-off containers from construction and clearing projects come directly to the yard and wood waste can be stockpiled for grinding, because the mobile tub grinder is transported back and forth between the transfer station and the scrap yard. The effectiveness of the day-to-day production of CCR-Custom Waste is completely dependent on the reliability of their machine fleet. At the end of 2011 Conder knew his skid steer loaders were getting to the point that they needed to be replaced. He had never owned a JCB
product and had always updated his units waste handling tires mounted and a with the same machine brand for many LaBounty 7R shear taken from the iron years. Then he got a visit from his local Condor had traded in and placed on the JCB salesman, Chris Shea, who dis- new 330. The shear requires a high flow cussed the advantages of the JCB skid hydraulic system, which worked out steer line with him. great as it is standard on the JCB 330. Conder stated that they didn’t have to At that point, Conder said, “We thought that maybe we needed to at least take a look at this machine. We were hesitant, but we called back and we drove over to Savannah to JCB of Georgia and met Chris (Shea), and Tony (Reardon) and took a really good look at what they had to offer. We met the whole team including Doug Ramsey in the service department. We also took a tour of the JCB manufacturing plant and we were quite impressed. “So we decided that we needed to try this out. We traded one of our a machine/attachment configuration you older machines for a new JCB 225 Not see every day. A JCB 330 skid steer loader does skid steer loader as we needed a new some rebar cutting with a LaBounty shear. one anyway. My biggest concern in the beginning with the JCB skid steer was do anything but hook it up and go to that one arm (single boom). I had never work. He also said the LaBounty shear operated one. My thoughts centered on matched perfectly with this machine and would it flex, or would it be as strong as also can be used on the JCB 225 skid two, or would it hold up? The lifetime steer loader. Conder said, “Other machines in our warranty on the single arm gave me the fleet that had the LaBounty breaker assurance I needed,” Condor said. Still, he and his team wanted to see for mounted on them, seemed to be off balthemselves how this would work so, ance and not overly stable. Mounted on “after delivery, the first week we had the either the 330 or 225 the shear and machine we put it through all kinds of machine stay perfectly balanced.

machines, they were extremely impressed with that and other safety features of the machine. Hey, if OSHA is happy, we’re happy,” Conder said. On the machines Conder owned before, which did not have side entry, entering and exiting with the shear mounted proved to be difficult for the operators. Conder said, “The side entry was the big thing that drew us to the machine.” CCR-Custom Waste’s JCB buying spree didn’t stop after two skid steer loaders. The company needed to upgrade its aging excavator (another brand of excavator). The skid steer purchases had worked out so well, the thought process was to stick with the same product line and the same JCB team. So the company traded its excavator for a JCB JS160 excavator last summer. For CCR-Custom Waste’s application, the excavator, was equipped with a FLECO demo grapple and an interchangeable Canmag scrap magnet, which were removed from the old machine and installed by JCB of Georgia prior to delivery. The swap of the magnet was coordinated with the manufacturer, Canmag, to ensure everything was working perfectly. JCB of Georgia even had two of their service representatives attend
