Larry, when I lived in the Dallas area I knew a guy that started a business that later I said "now why the heck didn't I think of that?" Demo crews were ripping out concrete and there wasn't any place to dispose of it other than the landfill. The city began charging by weight to dump concrete and it was getting very pricy. My buddy comes up with the bright idea to take broken concrete and turn it into crushed concrete and make money on both ends so he leases a piece of flood prone land on the outskirts of Dallas real cheap and opens up the business. He also scaled the trucks coming in, but he was charging exactly half of what the city landfill was charging. As you can imagine business was brisk. He bought a big crusher, or tub grinder is what it looked like to me and began turning the broken concrete into a product closer to large gravel. He would sell that product a bit cheaper than gravel and it sold very well. Funny thing, a lot of the contractors that were building apartments at the time were paying big bucks to have concrete removed and hauled off only to buy it right back for rip rap or temporary roads during construction. Yep, I considered the man a genius for coming up with that idea.
