Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Hawthorne address and unloads right where you point.
Alachua County properties, from rural homesteads to in-town lots, often need a compactable base material for driveways, sheds and paths. Crushed concrete delivers the same angular interlock as virgin stone at a lower cost per ton.
Hawthorne gets about 55 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when placing a gravel surface. A correctly compacted crushed concrete layer handles heavy rain without eroding.
Crushed concrete is sold in several sizes, each suited to a different part of the job. Choose the grade that matches your project layer: from fine topping to heavy fill. The list below covers the most common sizes we deliver to Hawthorne.
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Mixed sizes, good for most base layers and backfill. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Compacts to a smooth surface for walkways and patios. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Best for driveways, base under pavers, and sheds. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Used where a thicker, stable layer is needed before topping. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Large stone for soft ground, temporary access, or poor drainage areas. |
Each project needs the right size and depth to hold up under traffic and weather. The table below matches typical Hawthorne jobs to the crushed concrete product that solves them.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches, compacted in lifts |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches, depending on soil |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 12 inches to hold heavy equipment |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 inches over a geotextile fabric |
About 79 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain in Hawthorne. Scheduling the delivery for a stretch of dry weather helps the truck reach the drop point and gives the stone a chance to compact properly. Plan the delivery around dry ground: a truck needs a firm surface to reach the drop point.
Roughly 15 days a year drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Freeze-thaw cycles can shift the ground under a gravel layer, making a well-compacted base more important. The soils mapped in the Hawthorne area are commonly moderately well drained, so the base stone thickness needed depends partly on how much the soil holds water.
The ground around Hawthorne soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff. This means less drainage stone is needed under the surface layer, but it also means the base must be compacted firmly to avoid settling into the damp soil.
Measure the length and width of the area and decide on the depth of the layer. Use our material calculators to convert those dimensions into the number of tons required. The calculator works for all crushed concrete sizes.

Depending on the job, you may want to combine crushed concrete with other materials sold in Hawthorne. These complementary products help with surface finish, drainage, or weed control.
The dry season, roughly October through April, is ideal because there are fewer days with measurable rain. Hawthorne averages about 79 wet days a year, so ordering when the ground is firm helps the truck access your site and gives the stone time to compact before the next storm.
We deliver by the ton, and loads start at 1 ton. For a small project like a walkway or a dog run, 1 to 3 tons is typical. Hawthorne's 55 inches of rain per year means you should plan for good drainage even in a small area, so a compacted base layer is recommended.
