Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Perryville address and unloads right where you point.
Crushed concrete is recycled concrete rubble crushed down to a compactable grade. It costs less per ton than crushed stone, though both materials are angular and compact well. Many buyers confuse the two, but crushed concrete is a budget-friendly alternative that works for driveways, parking pads, and base layers.
Perryville gets about 53 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage matters when you use crushed concrete. The angular particles lock together, helping water move through the base. A proper depth and slope prevents washout and settling.
Different crushed concrete grades fit different jobs, and the wrong size can cause poor compaction or shifting. Below are the options we deliver to Perryville addresses. Each product has a specific use and a limitation to keep in mind.
| Product | What it is for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Not for fine leveling or top dressing thin lifts. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Not meant for load-bearing base or heavy traffic. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Not ideal as a final surface on soft ground. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Too coarse for pedestrian paths or thin toppings. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Not suitable as a final surface or under pavement. |
The table below matches typical local jobs to the best crushed concrete grade. Depth numbers assume a stable subgrade and standard compacting.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | Compact in lifts, 4 to 6 inches after compaction. |
| Parking pad | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches after compaction over geotextile. |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted, then top with 3/8" if needed. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches placed directly on mud. |
| Backfill behind a wall | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 12 inches wide, compacted every 6 inches. |
Freeze and thaw cycles work on loose material all winter, which is the argument for the deeper first lift. Perryville sees about 69 days a year below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. That amount of freezing means the ground can shift, so a base laid below the frost line stays stable.
With about 72 wet days a year, you need to schedule delivery onto firm ground. Wet soil compacts poorly and can rut under the truck. Plan your delivery for a dry stretch to avoid mud. The area gets about 2 inches of snow a year, so plowing can damage a loose surface. A compacted crushed concrete base holds up better than a loose top layer.
The ground around Perryville is in hydrologic group C, which means it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. That runoff calls for a deeper drainage layer of crushed concrete to direct water away from the base.
To estimate tonnage, measure the length and width of your area in feet and the depth you want in inches. Multiply all three, divide by 27 to get cubic yards, then multiply by about 1.4 tons per cubic yard for crushed concrete. Use our material calculators for a quick online estimate.
