Crushed Concrete in Blackfoot
Blackfoot gets about 12 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning are part of every crushed-concrete base job. This recycled material compacts to a hard surface at a lower cost than virgin stone, which makes it a practical choice for driveways, pads and access roads.
Crushed concrete comes in several sizes. Picking the right one saves time because you avoid ordering extra base stone or a finish layer separately.
Crushed Concrete Sizes for Blackfoot Projects
The 3/4 inch crushed concrete is the most commonly ordered size for compacted bases in Blackfoot. Use the table below to match other sizes to the part of the job you are working on.
| Product | What It Is For | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | general recycled base material | A blend of sizes; order this for mixed fill where compaction is less critical. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | fine top dressing and leveling | Use as a final wear surface on paths or to level a base before paving. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | the standard compacting base size | Compacts tightly; recommended for driveways, sheds and parking areas. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | heavy base under drives and pads | Larger stone provides a stable sub-base on soft or disturbed ground. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | deep fill and mud control | Use for building up low areas or creating a working platform in wet conditions. |
Project Guide: What to Order and How Deep
For common jobs in Blackfoot, this table pairs the project with the right crushed concrete size and a typical depth range.
| Project | What to Order | Depth or Note |
|---|---|---|
| Grade raising under a slab | 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches of compacted fill levels the subgrade. |
| Temporary site access | 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | 8 to 12 inches keeps equipment from rutting soft ground. |
| Driveway base on a budget | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 inches compacted provides a stable base under asphalt or concrete. |
| Backfill behind a wall | Crushed Concrete (mixed) | Drainable backfill; depth varies with wall height. |
| Parking pad | 3/4" Crushed Concrete | 4 to 6 inches compacted supports light vehicle weight. |
Blackfoot Weather and Ground Conditions
About 162 days a year drop below freezing in Blackfoot, which shortens the work window for placing and compacting crushed concrete. The ground thaws slowly, and deep frost can heave a base that is not thick enough. A 4-inch base on well-drained ground is usually adequate, but on sites with less drainage you may need an extra 2 inches of 1"-1 1/2" stone below the wearing surface. Ground that freezes deep moves as it thaws, which is why the base layer matters more here than the top layer.
Snowfall of about 30 inches a year means that a loose crushed concrete surface can be damaged by snowplow blades. Plan for a compacted finish layer of 3/8" crushed concrete if the surface will be plowed regularly. The soils mapped in the Blackfoot area are commonly well drained, which helps water move out of the base profile. Ground around Blackfoot takes water in at a moderate rate, so the standard base depth is usually enough for residential loads.
How to Estimate the Tonnage You Need
Calculate the cubic feet by multiplying the length and width of the area in feet by the depth in inches divided by 12. One ton of crushed concrete covers about 10 to 12 square feet at 4 inches deep. For a precise figure, use the material calculators on our site; they take the guesswork out of ordering the right tonnage for your Blackfoot address.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the smallest load of crushed concrete you deliver to Blackfoot?
The smallest load we deliver in Blackfoot is 1 ton. Blackfoot has about 38 wet days a year, so it helps to schedule the delivery onto firm ground when possible. You can confirm the minimum tonnage for your specific address at checkout.
When is the best time of year to order crushed concrete in Blackfoot?
Late spring through early fall is the best time, because the ground is not frozen and the weather is drier. Blackfoot has about 162 freezing days a year, so the work window typically runs from May to October. Ordering during this period gives you the most predictable compaction and grading conditions.
Do you deliver to rural addresses outside the city limits?
Yes, we deliver to rural addresses in Bingham County and the surrounding area. The truck needs a 12-foot-wide road to reach the site. You choose the delivery window at checkout, and we confirm the route during the scheduling process.
What size crushed concrete should I choose?
The right size depends on the use. For a compacted base under a driveway or shed, go with 3/4 inch crushed concrete. For deep fill or mud control on a temporary access road, use 2 to 3 inch crushed concrete. Use the product table above to match the size to the specific part of your job.
