A clamp assembly comprising a pair of clamps may couple to an assembly body. The clamps may pivot to receive material beneath the assembly body. The clamps may include opposing surfaces that define a scoop space beneath the assembly body. Each of the clamps may include a cutting plate. The cutting plate may include a perforating edge configured to extend into the scoop space relative to a corresponding one of the opposing surfaces. The clamp may further include a retention plate. The retention plate may include an inner surface that faces the cutting plate. The cutting plate and the retention plate further define the scoop space between the clamps. The clamp assembly may couple to a lift assembly. The lift assembly may include a hydraulic actuator configured to raise and lower the clamp assembly.
