Crushed Concrete ordered online by the ton. A dump truck delivers to your Montpelier address and unloads right where you point.
What you pay for crushed concrete in Montpelier comes down to two things: the tonnage you order and the distance the truck travels to reach your address. The product itself is recycled concrete that has been crushed and screened, making it a less expensive alternative to quarried stone.
Montpelier gets about 22 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage and washout planning matter when you choose a base material. Crushed concrete compacts well and lets water pass through, which helps keep the surface stable through wet weather.
Each size of crushed concrete suits a different part of the job. The biggest pieces handle deep fill and muddy ground, while the finer grades make a smooth top surface. Here are the options you can order for delivery in Montpelier.
| Product | Best used for | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | A versatile mix for most base layers |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Works well for a smooth final surface |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Compacts tightly for driveways and pads |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Good for thicker base courses |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Largest size for wet or soft ground |

Montpelier sees about 22 inches of precipitation each year, which means drainage matters for any surface you build. Crushed concrete allows water to drain through the base, reducing washout risk compared to dense fills.
The area has about 101 wet days a year and about 202 days where temperatures drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Those freezes mean the ground can heave if the base is not deep enough. Frost penetration here is deep and long, so plan for a thicker base layer under driveways and pads. Hard freezes shape the calendar here, so base work is easier to get right from late spring through fall.
Soils mapped in the Montpelier area are commonly well drained, which helps keep moisture from building up under a compacted surface. The ground around Montpelier takes in water at a moderate rate, so standard base depths are usually sufficient for most residential projects. About 84 inches of snowfall each year means plowing can damage a loose surface, so a well-compacted top layer is important.
Crushed concrete is sold by the ton. To figure out how many tons your project needs, multiply the length in feet by the width in feet by the depth in inches, then divide by the coverage rate for crushed concrete. Use the material calculators on our site to get a quick estimate based on your square footage and desired depth.
Ordering is done online by the ton. Delivery is priced by ZIP code at checkout, and loads range from 1 ton up to 40 tons or more on a single truck. If your order qualifies, delivery is free. Use code FIRSTTIMER50 at checkout to save $50 on your first order.
You choose a delivery window when you order: morning (7 am to 12 pm) or afternoon (12 pm to 5 pm). The delivery date must be at least 3 business days after you place the order. We send an email confirmation, then a second email with the scheduled window and a photo of the material being loaded. Delivery only goes ahead once you approve that second email.
Someone must be available at the site during the window. The truck needs at least 12 feet of road width to access the drop point. If access is tight, the crew unloads as close as they safely can. Learn more about Gravel Monkey, read customer reviews, and see delivery information for full details.
Yes, the ground in Montpelier freezes deep and long. That affects when you can start digging and compacting base layers. The best time to order and install crushed concrete is from late spring through fall, when the ground is not frozen and compaction is easier.
