Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Port Wentworth address and unloads right where you point.
Port Wentworth gets about 50 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter for any ground surface. Crushed concrete is a recycled material that compacts into a firm, free-draining layer, making it a strong choice for wet conditions. The angular pieces lock together under compaction and resist erosion.
Whether you need a driveway base, a parking pad, or temporary site access, crushed concrete gives you a durable surface at a lower cost than new stone. It is also a sustainable option because it reuses material from demolished structures.
Gravel Monkey stocks five sizes of crushed concrete for different jobs. The most popular is 3/4" Crushed Concrete, which serves as a standard compacting base under most driveways and pads. The other sizes each fill a specific need, from fine topping to heavy fill.
| Product | Common Use | Note |
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | Good for fill and base where size variation is acceptable. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Used as a final layer for paths or under pavers. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | The go-to choice for driveways and parking areas. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Provides extra stability over soft ground. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Used for large fills or muddy spots. |
The table below matches common projects to the right crushed concrete size and a typical depth.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
| Backfill behind a wall | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 6 to 12 inches behind wall for drainage. |
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches minimum depth. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches for mud control. |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches after compaction. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches over compacted subgrade. |
Port Wentworth gets about 50 inches of rain a year, so washout and drainage are real concerns. Crushed concrete drains well and locks together, but a deeper base helps prevent shifting under heavy rain.
About 71 days a year bring at least a tenth of an inch of rain. That makes scheduling the delivery onto firm ground important. If the ground is too wet, the truck may have trouble reaching the drop spot. The area has about 21 days a year below freezing, though ground freezing here is not a significant factor.
Soils mapped in the Port Wentworth area are commonly very poorly drained. The ground around Port Wentworth is in dual hydrologic group C/D. Where it is drained, it takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface; where it is not, it takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere. Work can run most of the year in this climate, which makes scheduling the delivery the easy part.
To figure out how many tons to order, measure the area's length and width and decide on the depth. Multiply length times width times depth in feet, then divide by 27 to get cubic yards. Crushed concrete weighs about 1.4 to 1.5 tons per cubic yard. Use our material calculators to do the math for you and see the tons needed for your dimensions.

You pick a morning or afternoon window. The truck arrives with the material and dumps it where you need it. We require a valid phone number to confirm. You get an email confirmation, then a second email with the window and a photo of the load. You approve that email before delivery goes ahead.

The best time is during the dry months when the ground is firm, typically late spring through early fall. Port Wentworth has about 21 days a year below freezing, so ground freezing is not a significant issue. That gives you a long work window to complete your project.
The tons you need depend on the area and depth of your project. Chatham County permitted about 1,704 single-family homes in 2024, so many people are working on driveways and pads. Use our material calculators to get an accurate tonnage based on your measurements.
No, someone must be present during the delivery window to accept the load. You can nominate a person to be there. If no one is present, a missed delivery or redelivery fee can apply.
The sizes range from 3/8 inch fine material up to 2 to 3 inch pieces. Larger sizes are used for deep fill and mud control, while smaller sizes compact into a smooth base or top dressing. Each size serves a specific job, as shown in the product table.
