The mobile crusher “walks” and turns nicely, Bill
says, even when the machine is in idle position, “no matter where you’re
at, no matter what you’re into. That’s a big plus.” This provides solid
control when walking the machine around, Rich says, which is
particularly important when trying to back equipment to within an inch
of other equipment.

“We also like the ruggedness and robustness of this
machine,” Rich adds. “This is a well-engineered piece of iron, from a
company with proven technology.”

Building relationships for the future

Bill sees only continued growth in his future, and
predicts that in the next five years, CCI will add one or two field
crews operating up and down the East Coast, including the South. “We’ve
been invited there already, and within five years, we’ll probably have a
division there handling those customers,” he says. In fact, growth seems
to be in the cards — in June 2007, the Corsons started a second
business, Corson Asphalt Inc., with the goal being to produce asphalt
for outside sales.

Bill also predicts a second fixed operation in
addition to Corson Quarries Inc., their fixed operation 60 miles
northwest of Cogan Station in Elysburg, Pa., that the Corsons purchased
in mid-2006. “There will always be a requirement for good aggregates,”
Bill notes.
