Model ALLU DL-Series Screening Bucket

ALLU’s customer, MPI Construction, in Tennessee, USA, struggled to keep up with the growing demand for screened topsoil, compost, and recycled aggregates. Traditionally, the company had been involved in house building and landscaping, but ALLU helped it transform its business model.

Customers’ traditional equipment couldn’t handle wet or damp conditions, leading to downtime, lost revenue, and waste disposal costs. ALLU’s dealer, Stowers CAT, suggested investing in ALLU. Larry Cummins, Sales Manager at Stowers CAT with over 30 years at the company, explains that they represent ALLU to offer their customers more efficient and cost-effective solutions, and have found ALLU Buckets to deliver excellent results on the job.

The ALLU DL-Series Screening Bucket was put into operation. This gave the customer the opportunity to process material directly on site, regardless of any weather conditions. The bucket, mounted on a CAT 299 skid steer, enabled efficient and cost-effective screening of soil, compost, recycled concrete, and asphalt millings.

Efficiency Boost: More Profits, Faster Screening

ALLU’s solution delivered clear results for the customer — profits and productivity rose significantly, with 2–3 truckloads screened in just a few hours.

  • Revenue: $800–$1,000 per load of rock, $700 per load of compost, $850 per load of screened topsoil.
  • Versatility: Handles topsoil, compost, field dirt, recycled concrete, and asphalt millings.
  • Reliability: Over 1,500 hours with only minor maintenance required.
  • Market Growth: Expanded sales to landscapers, builders, and garden centers. Demand exceeds supply.

The ALLU DL-Series Screening Bucket has paid for itself many times over, and everything screened sells immediately. The customer highly recommends the ALLU Screening Bucket to house builders and landscapers.
