Crushed Concrete we deliver in Edwardsville
Crushed Concrete in Edwardsville
Madison County properties often need a strong, affordable base for driveways and pads. Edwardsville receives about 44 inches of precipitation a year, so drainage matters for any gravel surface.
Crushed concrete is recycled concrete that is crushed into angular pieces. It compacts well and costs less than virgin stone, making it a solid choice for parking areas and temporary access roads.
Crushed Concrete Sizes for Edwardsville Projects
Crushed concrete comes in sizes from fine dust to large chunks. The right size depends on what you are building and how much load it will carry.
| Product | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Crushed Concrete | General recycled base material | All-purpose size; compacts into a firm surface. |
| 3/8" Crushed Concrete | Fine top dressing and leveling | Use as a final layer or to smooth a base before paving. |
| 3/4" Crushed Concrete | The standard compacting base size | Most popular for driveways and parking pads. |
| 1"-1 1/2" Crushed Concrete | Heavy base under drives and pads | Larger pieces add stability under truck traffic. |
| 2"-3" Crushed Concrete | Deep fill and mud control | Best for building up a wet area before adding finer layers. |

Edwardsville Weather and Your Crushed Concrete Project
Edwardsville gets about 72 days a year with at least a tenth of an inch of rain. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground avoids soft spots and rutting.
About 93 days a year drop below 32F. That limits the work season for compaction and base preparation. Winters here are cold enough to move an unsettled base, so compaction is worth the extra pass.
The ground around Edwardsville takes water in slowly and sheds a fair amount across the surface. A deeper drainage layer earns its place when the base is crushed concrete.
Estimating How Much Crushed Concrete You Need
To figure out how many tons you need, calculate the volume of the area in cubic feet. Our material calculators convert cubic feet to tons and account for compaction and waste.
