GrinderCrusherScreen A Leader In Recycling Equipment

Success with GrinderCrusherScreen: Past, Present, and Future

From its inception in 1973, the base of operations for GrinderCrusherScreen and Screen USA has been Smyrna, GA. Here, an extensive inventory of new equipment is housed and our industry-leading parts department, featuring knowledgeable staff and replacement parts for all types of recycling equipment.

A brick-and-mortar location allows GrinderCrusherScreen to stock parts stateside, thus saving time and money for our customers by eliminating the lead times associated with ordering parts from overseas, unlike many competitors without physical locations.
Achieving Customer Success

Our business is relationship-driven, and the success of our business is closely tied to the success of our clients. Our customer success stories are from owner-operators who have used and owned their equipment for years. Unlike many companies, your customer journey with GrinderCrusherScreen extends beyond the delivery and setup of your machine. We look to forge enduring business connections and it is no surprise that many of our customers have purchased and sold many pieces of equipment with GrinderCrusherScreen.

Dependable Real-World Industry Knowledge

With more than five decades of experience and relationships with our manufacturers, GrinderCrusherScreen is an industry leader in recycling equipment. Our team collaborates closely with manufacturers to aid and assist in the design and development of new equipment while also suggesting modifications for existing equipment. With a European base for most equipment manufacturers, our industry knowledge and relationships are crucial as the use cases and types of materials that our customers crush, shred, and screen are significantly different than the European market. Rest assured knowing that our team has the experience and industry knowledge to help you find the best machinery for your company’s needs.

Access to Industry Experts

Company President Rick Cohen, boasting over four decades of experience in the recycling industry, is often sought for consultation due to his extensive knowledge and experience of recycling equipment.

We take great pride in our sales staff being industry experts and not novices to the industry.

Our team can, more often than not diagnose a problem within minutes, not days or weeks, like our competition. The GrinderCrusherScreen team is there to support you throughout, minimizing downtime and saving you money.
