Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Stuart address and unloads right where you point.
Stuart averages about 61 inches of rain a year, so drainage matters for any base material. Crushed concrete is a recycled aggregate that compacts well and allows water to pass through. It is a practical choice for projects where washout and settling are concerns.
Because crushed concrete is made from crushed demolition material, it costs less than new stone. It is angular and locks together, which makes it stable under loads. Many Stuart property owners use it for driveways, parking areas, and as a base for patios and walkways.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes to suit different jobs. The most popular size for general base work is the 3/4-inch crushed concrete, which compacts to a firm surface. Other sizes fill specific needs from fine topping to deep fill. Below is a table of the sizes we deliver to Stuart.
| Product | Best used for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A versatile option for many applications. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Good for under pavers and as a walking surface. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | The go-to size for driveways and parking areas. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Provides extra strength for heavy loads. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used for drainage layers and muddy spots. |
The table below matches common projects to the crushed concrete size and suggested depth. Use it as a starting point for your order.
| Project | What to order | Depth or note |
|---|---|---|
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 12 inches depending on wall height. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 inches compacted. |
| Driveway base on a budget | Crushed Concrete | 6 to 8 inches. |
Stuart's climate brings about 61 inches of rain a year. That much precipitation means water under a paved surface must be directed away. Crushed concrete's angular particles interlock and leave voids for drainage, which helps reduce washout. Planning the drainage base correctly is important.
With about 92 days each year that see at least a tenth of an inch of rain, scheduling delivery onto firm ground matters. Wet soil can make the site muddy and delay compaction. It is wise to order crushed concrete when the ground is dry enough to work.
Freezing days are rare in Stuart, averaging about 1 day a year below 32F. That means the ground moves very little with frost, so the base depth can be shallower than in colder areas. Soils in the Stuart area are commonly moderately well drained, which also reduces the need for thick stone layers. The ground around Stuart soaks water up quickly and produces little runoff, so less drainage stone is needed under the surface layer. Order once the site is ready, because material sitting in the wrong spot gets moved twice.
To estimate how many tons of crushed concrete your project needs, measure the length and width in feet and the desired depth in inches. Multiply length by width by depth, then divide by 12 to get cubic feet. A cubic foot of crushed concrete weighs roughly 100 to 120 pounds, so divide the cubic feet by 20 to get an approximate tonnage. Use our material calculators to get a more accurate number for your specific project.

The size depends on the project. For a compacted base under a driveway, 3/4-inch crushed concrete is the standard choice. For fine topping or leveling, use 3/8-inch crushed concrete. Heavy base or deep fill jobs call for 1-inch to 1.5-inch or 2-inch to 3-inch crushed concrete.
