Any updates on the status of their equipment.I see the high reach went to A. Russo. What are they using it for these days?
Alot of work in Manhattan, it was recently working on a MTA job for the Seven Line extension taking down a vent buidling. Russo is a bigger company then it looks. here are some photos from a job.

All, or most of their salters are for sale on a NJ auction site. I feel terrible, but it is a lesson to be learned by all of us. Everything changes, and we must be accustomed to the "new' normal..which is ultra agressiveness, unbelievable competition, and most are just running money through the company just to do it.

It's sad to see any company go out of business, but I could see this coming with Nacirema. They had way to many new equipment and trucks, not to mention 4 uhds. I seen pics on the internet of them running dash five komatsu excavators, that could last 25+ years in service, and no need to buy the newest excavators, or equipment. The 385cl UHD they had was to big to keep working unless they had constant none stop demolition of 10+ story structures. Their 330bl, was the perfect sized uhd in my opinion, small enough for conventional demolition, big enough for larger buildings. It's sad to see them go out of business, but maybe other demolition companies can be successful with their old machines.
Oh now that is sick!!!!!....., I guess you could now say that A.Russo is'nt the small mom & pop Demo company some thought them to be.
(BTW) Vin if you hear or if anyone knows of up comming demo jobs A.Russo will be doing either with that HRD or otherwise please post or email me if its not much of a bother, I do appreciate it very much!

wow, they were a big player. that is a sign of the times we are in.
I tried calling there early last week and could not get through to anyone except for the container dispatch. Dengler Demolition
I think they sold they're big LRD to Grammercy and it's "working" at Giants Stadium right now. I heard they sold another one, but not sure to who. Someone in the NY market. I've been told they have sold a bunch of equipment but still have quite a bit.
So whats happening to all of there equipment???, they had a shit load of that as well not to mention 3 High Reach Machines. I am wondering if anyone knows who might end up with them.
They HAVE closed up their demo division. They have notified many of their clients they are going to continue to run the trucking company and scrap yard. Cash flow is everyone's issue these days.
they still have a shit load of roll offs (around 60-70), i think thats what keeps them the busiest......... they were also in the shit house and jersey barrier business but i believe they stopped with both of them as well.... As far as the Carting Im not sure what up with that....
Competition in nj is incredible. There are nine contractors within 7 miles of my yard advertising as demolition contractors.Dengler Demolition
My god thats crazy I was just trying to get a job with them a year ago, now there up and selling all there equipment!!!!, glad I never gained a position.
Probably because the demo industry is in tough shape right now, you see all the undercutting going on in bidding right now. It very tough to turn a profit right now especially in N jersey and NYC.....

when i was in NJ a couple of months ago, I saw they had a lot of demo equipment sitting idle in Harrision. Why did they shut down? Bummer.
