Welcome!
AGGREGATE
Developed in 2000 the aggregate division consists of two locations for the processing and sale of material.
Washing Facility - The source for all limestone products is our processing/washing facility located in South Central Florida. Limestone is a recycled product extruded by separating the material through a screening and washing process. Our limestone is famous for fossils, specifically shark’s teeth. Many customers these buried treasures in delivered piles of limestone. The material ranges in size from a #89 to 2”-6” ballast.
53rd Street Yard – Kimmins’ main recycling yard is located on 53rd Street and Broadway in Tampa, Florida. Our fully integrated twenty acre facility houses equipment to crush concrete feed for road base and an on-site DOT certified scale for accurately weighed truck loads. Our yard produces D.O.T. certified, recycled concrete road base… the first and only source in the state of Florida. This milestone reinforces Kimmins’ commitment to offer quality material and a green approach to recycled construction materials. This benefits the conservation of diminishing natural resources and the reduction of trucking time and costs. Other materials in our yard include concrete riprap, granite, recycled asphalt, sand and fill dirt. Our facility accommodates the timely and easy delivery or pickup of any material.
SCRAP
53rd Street Yard - With the increasing need for recycled metal, Kimmins developed the scrap division in 2006. Our yard was expanded to include a shearer that processes the metal and a rail line to transport the material to recycling centers throughout the country. Customers may either have Kimmins transport or self-haul the material to the yard. Materials that our scrap division recycles include 1&2 heavy metal gauge, plate & structural & non-ferrous metal.
Recycling is the practice of recovering used materials from the waste stream and incorporating those same materials into the manufacturing process. Successful recycling also depends on manufacturers making products from recovered materials and, in turn, consumers purchasing products made of recycled materials. Customers can do their part and "close the loop" by buying products made of recycled materials whenever possible. Using recycled products reduces dependency on virgin material and ensures that precious landfill space is not taken up by non-degradable materials.
