Model ALLU DL-Series Screening Bucket

L&M Landscape Materials is a family-owned landscape yard dedicated to transforming outdoor spaces with quality materials and personalized service. With decades of experience in the landscaping industry, the company has become a trusted source for top-grade soil, mulch, decorative stones, plants, and hardscape supplies.

A Dealer Partnership That Delivers

Like many landscaping companies, L&M Landscape Materials faced a common challenge: purchasing pre-screened topsoil was costly and time-consuming. When ALLU’s dealer Stowers CAT observed how the L&M team worked, they suggested trying the ALLU solution.

“CAT Stowers saw what we were doing and said, ‘Let’s try the ALLU.’ I tried it, and it changed my business for the best”, says the owner of L&M Landscape Materials.

With the ALLU DL-Series Screening Bucket, they now processes everything independently, reduces costs, saves time, and produces consistent, professional-quality materials — all while supporting more sustainable operations.

Turning Dirt into Profit

When customer decided to rethink how they handled soil, they didn’t expect their business model to change so dramatically. After adding the ALLU DL-Series Bucket to their equipment fleet, they quickly discovered a smarter, faster, and more profitable way to work.

The bucket paid back within a two-month period. I’ve had it over a year now and put everything through it — no issues. It’s an awesome piece of equipment for landscaping. I’ve run it with both a skid steer and a loader, and it’s one of my most used and valuable tools, says the owner of L&M Landscape Materials.

He adds: ALLU has changed my business model, because normally I would have had to buy a truckload of unscreened soil for $200–300, and a truckload of screened soil would have cost me $800–900. I don’t buy the dirt anymore. With the ALLU, I make the same screened product myself — and I’ve seen a 100% increase in profit.

Landscaping Applications Made Easy

Landscaping often involves managing diverse materials — topsoil, mulch, bark, gravel, and sand — each requiring different processing methods. The ALLU DL-Series is purpose-built for this versatility. It screens and separates soil, removes stones and roots, and refines organic materials such as bark or compost to produce a consistent, high-quality end product.

This process enhances soil quality, improves moisture retention, and delivers visually appealing results — all while reducing waste, saving labor time, and minimizing the need for extra equipment.
