Man vs. Mill: Britz Wrecking Demolishes Mammoth ADM Flour Mill HD

The Archer Daniel Midland Flour Mill, one of the first buildings to be built in North Kansas City, was somewhat of a historic eyesore taking up valuable space on 58 acres of prime real estate next to 1-35 and Highway 210, where more than 130,000 vehicles pass by it every day. When ADM began debating whether to upgrade the mill or tear it down, the City entered negotiations and purchased the 58-acre chunk of land and began readying it for development. Though a small company, Britz Wrecking was determined to land the bid for the project, and with the partnership of MidAmerican Roofing and Contractor Supply, it did just that. Britz rented a KPI-JCI FT4240 impactor plant, 271K screen and conveyor from G.W. Van Keppel to complete the project, and was so impressed he purchased a KPI-JCI 2650 jaw crusher as well as a KPI-JCI GT145S three-deck screen.
