How:
With a BF70.2 crusher bucket, a Hitachi excavator and a crane.
Mission:

The demolition waste was then thrown into a hole opened in the centre of the building to protect the surrounding area.
Results:
Time-saving material handling and significant reduction of dust and noise emissions.
Avoid transporting waste materials by helicopter
Where:
In a cabin in the Bavarian Alps, 2000 metres above sea level.
