Bottle Crushers

Bottle Crushers are used to crush bottles to eliminate the need for frequent empty bottle runs back to the storage room. This saves valuable time that should be spent at the bar serving customers. The bottle crusher can be installed under the counter which is near the bartender, or in some restaurants and eateries. This allows for rapid crushing of empty beer bottles, liquor bottles, wine bottles, and even champagne bottles. Since the crusher is located under the counter, it stays out of sight and out of the customers view.


Operation

Operating the bottle crusher is very simple and intuitive. When an empty bottle is presented to the bartender, he takes that empty bottle and places it into an opening on the crusher.

Once the bottle is in the crusher the crushing mechanism takes over and breaks the bottle up into small fragments which allows it to hold a lot of bottles before it becomes full.

Once the bin is full, the bartender simply removes the full bin, empties it into a larger bin, and places it back under the bar. The cycle then repeats.
