01 / Common uses in St. Petersburg

What St. Petersburg contractors crush on-site.

01
Concrete demolition

Crush slabs, footings, and structural concrete from building teardowns directly on the demo site. Produce reusable aggregate without a single haul trip.

02
Foundation removal

Process residential and commercial foundations after excavation. Jaw crushers handle rebar-reinforced concrete and reduce it to spec base material on-site.

03
Road and parking lot

Crush broken concrete from road, curb, and parking lot removal. Recycled aggregate goes right back under the new pour as compactable base.

04
Bridge and overpass

Process heavy reinforced concrete from bridge deck and overpass demolition. The CT-850 handles large feed sizes and rebar without issue.

05
Block and masonry

CMU block walls, brick structures, and masonry debris crush quickly into clean aggregate. Lower jaw pressure needed means faster throughput.

06
Rock and stone

Natural rock, limestone, and stone from site excavation. Jaw crushers process virgin rock into spec material for fill, drainage, or road base.

02 / The math

Stop paying to haul rubble.

C&D tipping fees in Florida average $52.5 per ton. Every truck load of concrete you send to the landfill costs you twice: once for tipping, again for the truck and driver. On-site crushing eliminates both and produces reusable base aggregate worth approximately $12 per ton.

The numbers

On-site crushing vs. hauling: cost comparison for St. Petersburg contractors.

The break-even point for on-site crushing in the St. Petersburg market is lower than most contractors expect. At $52.50/ton tipping and a 25-mile haul to Pinellas County Solid Waste Facility, a project with 50 tons of concrete already saves money by crushing on-site. The savings scale linearly: 200 tons means roughly $12,750 saved versus hauling, even after the crusher rental cost.

The math is straightforward. Haul-out costs include tipping fees, round-trip trucking, driver time, and the replacement aggregate you need to buy to backfill. On-site crushing costs include the rental, fuel, and an operator. The rental is a fixed weekly cost. The haul-out costs multiply with every truck load.

St. Petersburg contractors who run the numbers usually rent. The ones who process concrete regularly end up buying a crusher through our main site.

What goes in the jaw

What jaw crushers process. What they don't.

Jaw crushers are built for hard, brittle materials: concrete, rock, brick, block. They are not designed for flexible or soft materials. Feeding the wrong material damages the jaw plates, voids your rental agreement, or both.

Can crush

  • Concrete
  • Reinforced concrete
  • Rock / stone
  • Brick
  • Block / CMU
  • C&D rubble

Concrete, rock, brick, and block are what jaw crushers are engineered for. The CT-850 includes an integrated overband magnet for rebar separation. The CT-535 magnet is optional.

Can't crush

  • Asphalt need impact crusher
  • Dirt / soil
  • Wood / stumps
  • Metal-only scrap
  • Household waste
  • Hazardous materials

Asphalt requires an impact crusher, not a jaw crusher. Asphalt is flexible and gums up jaw plates instead of fracturing cleanly. If you have asphalt, ask us about impact crusher options.

03 / Sizing

St. Petersburg right now

Why St. Petersburg crushes more concrete than ever.

St. Petersburg's Pinellas County issues demolition permits year-round. Between redevelopment in the Downtown area, steady tear-and-rebuild activity near EDGE District, and commercial site work across the metro, concrete demolition debris piles up fast. A portable jaw crusher on your demo site turns that pile into reusable base material: no haul trips, no tipping fees, no waiting for a landfill slot.

We connect St. Petersburg contractors with Evortle CT-535 and CT-850 jaw crushers delivered directly to the jobsite. The compact CT-535 fits through residential gates and handles single-lot teardowns. The CT-850 runs full production on commercial demo sites across Pinellas County. Both produce spec aggregate you can use on your own project or sell to the site next door.

St. Petersburg's 1.2% growth rate is set to surge with the Tropicana Field redevelopment into the Historic Gas Plant District, one of Florida's largest urban redevelopment projects. Pinellas County's limited land area makes redevelopment and demolition the primary path for new construction. The EDGE District transformation and downtown waterfront condo market sustain year-round equipment demand.

Contractors working across St. Petersburg's Downtown, EDGE District, and Old Northeast areas need reliable equipment access. Having a concrete crusher delivered to your jobsite saves the round-trip haul to the nearest disposal facility every day you are on the job.

The nearest quarry is Cemex - Brooksville (45 miles). The closest C&D recycling facility is Pinellas County Recycling Center. Crushing on-site means you do not need either one: your demolition concrete becomes your base aggregate, right where you need it.

Year-round construction. Afternoon thunderstorms in summer. Pinellas County has strict stormwater management.

St. Petersburg's active construction market drives demand for demolition debris processing and concrete recycling. Current and recent projects include:

  • Tropicana Field site redevelopment into the Historic Gas Plant District, one of Florida's most ambitious urban infill projects requiring full stadium demolition.
  • Downtown waterfront condo construction along Beach Drive and 1st Street corridors, with demolition and high-rise foundation work.
  • EDGE District commercial and residential infill projects along Central Avenue, replacing aging structures with mixed-use development.

Equipment rental demand in St. Petersburg is driven by contractors supporting Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, Raymond James Financial, and HSN, along with general construction and demolition companies serving Pinellas County. The city's Sandy fill over clay and limestone makes screening equipment valuable for processing excavated material into reusable fill. Healthcare facility construction, road and infrastructure improvements, and commercial development all contribute to steady demand for crushing and screening equipment.

The nearest C&D landfill to most St. Petersburg jobsites is Pinellas County Solid Waste Facility, roughly 25 miles away. Tipping fees run $52.50 per ton. A 20-ton truck load costs you $52.5 x 20 = $1,050 in tipping alone, plus $225 in trucking at $4.50 per loaded mile round-trip. Ten truck loads: $12,750 hauling rubble that could have been base material.

An on-site jaw crusher eliminates every one of those costs. The crushed concrete produces 3/4-inch minus aggregate worth roughly $12 per ton. On a 200-ton job, that is $2,400 in recovered material value on top of the hauling costs you did not spend.

06 / Frequently asked

Concrete crusher rental FAQ: St. Petersburg.

Concrete crusher rental pricing in St. Petersburg depends on the model and rental duration. The compact CT-535 fits residential demo jobs. The production CT-850 handles commercial-scale work. Contact us at 770-433-2670 for a quote based on your Pinellas County project.

Jaw crushers process concrete (plain and rebar-reinforced), concrete block, brick, and natural rock. They do NOT process asphalt. If your St. Petersburg project involves asphalt, you need an impact crusher. The CT-850 includes an integrated overband magnet for rebar separation. The CT-535 magnet is optional.

Yes. We coordinate delivery and pickup to jobsites throughout St. Petersburg, Pinellas County, and neighboring communities. The CT-535 ships on a standard tag-along trailer. The CT-850 requires a lowboy. Most St. Petersburg-area deliveries happen within 24-48 hours of quote approval.

The CT-535 processes 15-30 tons per hour depending on product size. The CT-850 handles 65-130 tons per hour. Actual throughput depends on feed material, rebar density, and desired output size. Output is adjustable from 0.8-inch to 4-inch CSS.

If you have a single project or occasional demo jobs, renting makes financial sense. If you process concrete regularly, purchasing delivers better long-term ROI. GrinderCrusherScreen.com sells new Evortle jaw crushers and brokers quality used units. We have been matching contractors with the right equipment since 1973.

Yes. Jaw crushers handle concrete block, brick, and masonry along with poured concrete. These materials crush faster than reinforced structural concrete because they have no rebar. The output is clean aggregate suitable for fill and base material.

The CT-535 needs a flat pad roughly 30x50 feet for the machine, feed stockpile, and output conveyor. The CT-850 needs about 40x80 feet. You also need room for a loader or excavator to feed the crusher. We can help you plan the site layout before delivery.
