HMC Story
We are Highland Mini Crushers. I would like to introduce myself and give you some background information about why I started HMC.
My name is Robert Taylor and I am the face behind the business. Originally from the small village of Jemimaville on the bonnie Black Isle I have since moved into Inverness into my very own self-build house.
I have always tried to minimise waste in every aspect of my life, especially on the build. If I think something is too good to go in the bin it will go in my container/yard to be used at a later date.
After many years of building, I soon realised there was no way to reuse building waste that would normally have to be put in a skip and taken away to landfill.
In 2022 I started looking into business ideas that would minimise wastage on jobs. I found a niche in the Highlands which could solve this exact problem.
I did a lot of research into the costs of hiring skips, the waste disposal charges along with the costs of buying raw material out of the ground. I realized that the cost of this compared with recycling and reusing your own building waste was a lot more beneficial for your pocket and the environment. It was a win win.
With the ever-rising costs of hiring skips, waste disposal charges and the quarrying costs of buying material it was a great time to get into waste management and recycling.
I took the decision to bring a completely new concept to the Highlands and started Highland Mini Crushers
We are Highlands ONLY Mini Mobile Crusher. Able to turn 20 - 30 tonne of building waste per day into 100% recycled hardcore for reuse.
A sustainable, eco-friendly and cost-effective solution to building waste management along with reducing the carbon footprint of your project.
The crusher is designed for crushing man-made building materials such as breeze blocks, bricks, slabs, roof tiles, lock block, slates etc.
As well as having HMC, Robert works with his father Ian selling bespoke windows and doors at Taylor Timber Products. Ian quite often gets roped into loading the crusher as well.
